-Among all the speed control techniques for induction motor drives, Direct Torque Control (DTC) method is simple and efficient because DTC is independent of machine rotor parameters and free from d-q transformation. Modern DTC based drives are equipped with estimators, observers, and machine intelligence systems to improve the dynamics and efficiency of the drive. This paper is aimed to focus o...

Direct Flux and torque control (DTC) based speed control strategy of induction motor (IM) drive and the effect of flux and torque hysteresis band amplitude on this strategy is presented. This scheme is simple and provides a good dynamic response. But the major problem associated with this DTC drive is high torque along with stator flux ripples. The direct torque control of induction machine is ...

This paper presents a contribution for detailed comparison between two control strategies for Induction Machine (IM) drives: Direct Field-Oriented control (DFOC) and Direct Torque Control (DTC). The performances of those two control schemes are evaluated and compared by simulation in terms of torque and current ripples, transient response and sensitivity to machine parameters.

This paper deals with the direct torque control (DTC) of the induction motor. This type of control allows decoupling control between the flux and the torque without the need for a transformation of coordinates. However, as with other hysteresisbased systems, the classical DTC scheme represents a high ripple, in both the electromagnetic torque and the stator flux and a distortion in the stator c...

Matrix Converters are becoming popular in industrial applications due its better performance than the conventional VSI converters. The advantages of Matrix Converters are bidirectional current flow, adjustable displacement angle and sinusoidal input current and output voltage. Two control schemes used to control the speed of Induction motor. They are Field Oriented Control and Direct Torque Con...

In this paper, we propose two approach intelligent techniques of improvement of Direct Torque Control (DTC) of Induction motor such as fuzzy logic (FL) and artificial neural network (ANN), applied in switching select voltage vector .The comparison with conventional direct torque control (DTC), show that the use of the DTC_FL and DTC_ANN, reduced the torque, stator flux, and current ripples.
