Speed-Sensorless Predictive Torque Controlled Induction Motor Drive Withfeed-Forward Control Of Load Torque For Electric Vehicle Applications, Emrah Zerdali̇, Ridvan Demi̇r

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Nowadays, the global trend is towards reducing CO2 emissions and one solution is to replace internal combustion vehicles with electric vehicles. To this end, electric drive system, the most crucial part of an electric vehicle, has gained importance and has become a major research field. The induction motor (IM) is one of the best candidates for electric vehicle applications due to its advantages such as having simple and robust design, its low cost maintenance requirements and the ability to operate in harsh environments. However, it has a highly nonlinear model with timevarying electrical and mechanical parameters making them difficult to …
