Abstract
This article presents the performance evaluation of the frame-angle-based (FAB) direct torque controller (DTC) for 3φ induction motor drives (IMDs), which are fed by 3 six-pulse wavelet-modulated (WM) dc-ac power electronic converters (PECs). The tested DTC is designed to adjust the d <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">e</sup> - and q <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">e</sup> -axis components of the voltages (v <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">e</sup> <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">ds</sub> and v <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">e</sup> <sub xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">qs</sub> ) applied to a 3 IMD.

This frame produces reference modulating signals that are required to generate WM switching pulses for operating the 3 dc-ac PEC in the IMD. The complete IMD system, incorporating the FAB-DTC, is implemented for a 10-hp IMD system for performance evaluation. Tests of the FAB-DTC for the 10-hp IMD are conducted for various changes in the load torque, command torque, drive speed, and system parameters. Simulation and experimental test results demonstrate fast, accurate, reliable, and dynamic responses with minor sensitivity to variations in system parameters.
