Introducing Improved Iterated Extended Kalman Filter (IIEKF) to Estimate the Rotor Rotational Speed, Rotor and Stator Resistances of Induction Motors

Abstract

This paper introduces the Improved Iterated Extended Kalman Filter (IIEKF) for estimating the rotational speed, rotor resistance, and stator resistance of three-phase induction motors (IMs). Two state-space models for estimating the variables are presented. An optimal estimation of rotational speed is obtained by introducing a data fusion approach. The effectiveness of the IIEKF in comparison with the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), using experimental data and in a wide range of operating conditions, is shown.
