Description
Summary:In modern systems with induction motors (IM), in addition to precision, it is also very important to ensure the highest possible reliability and safety. To ensure the above, information about the stator current value is required. If the current sensor (CS) fails, a redundant sensor or an algorithmic solution can be used. The Luenberger observer (LO) can be used to estimate the lost stator current without increasing the cost of the drive system. However, this solution is based on the mathematical model of IM, which is sensitive to its parameters. Therefore, this paper presents a modified LO (MLO) and investigates the effect of a coefficient in the error gain matrix on improving robustness to changes in the IM parameters. As shown by extensive studies, the proposed solution has significantly reduced the influence of the IM parameters on the accuracy of the stator current estimation, which has not been previously reported in the known literature.
