Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present a new drive control strategy for a railway traction system, robust vs. the loss of adherence perturbation. This new control strategy is based on an algorithm commutation. The specificity of the system drive is two induction motors with only one PWM inverter. For this study, the common mechanical load has been completely modelled, in particular the wheel/rail contact law, and represents a real railway traction system, coming from industry
