Abstract :
A self-organized field-oriented induction machine controller that addresses problems encountered in the field-weakening region is presented. The field-oriented controller (FOC) is based on model reference adaptive principles but relies on samples of the state of the machine to determine control inputs. The proposed controller is compared with other approaches to field-weakening operation, and the advantages and limitations of each are discussed. Experimental results are presented for the classical and the self-organized approaches to field-weakening operation
