ADRC and IFOC Control of a Sensorless Induction Motor Driven by a Multilevel Converter Using SVM Approach and PV Generators

This paper offers a system for an electric vehicle. It consists of digitally controlling an induction motor without using a speed sensor. The machine is powered by a five-level cascading H-bridge inverter. The SVM control principle is used to manage the status of the five-level inverter; this removes harmonics. The H-bridge inverter converter is powered by photovoltaic sources via a serial converter, using the maximum power point tracker control principle. This structure can also reduce shading losses. In the absence of a mechanical sensor, a dynamic model of the asynchronous machine is utilized with the state variables defined in the stator reference frame. The state vector consists of the components of the rotor flux and stator current. The article provides a comparison of two methods widely used on an induction motor drive. The adaptive model-reference system method and Luenberger observer are evaluated using an active control strategy to reject disturbances to minimize the impact of disturbances. The operating principles of each method are described, and the mathematical models of training systems are developed. Both methods provide a promise for high-speed estimate applications in simulation environments. The simulation results obtained show the correct operation of both observers. Perfect decoupling between the velocity and flow control loops is observed, taking into account any disturbances that may affect the system.
