RT Journal Article T1 Enhanced reaching-law-based discrete-time terminal sliding mode current control of a six-phase induction motor A1 Kali, Yassine A1 Rodas, Jorge A1 Doval Gandoy, Jesús A1 Ayala, Magno A1 Gonzalez, Osvaldo K1 3317 Tecnología de Vehículos de Motor AB This paper develops an inner stator current controller based on an enhanced reaching-law-based discrete-time terminal sliding mode. The problem of tracking stator currents with high accuracy while ensuring the robustness of a six-phase induction motor in the presence of uncertain electrical parameters and unmeasurable states is tackled. The unknown dynamics are approximated by using a time delay estimation method. Then, an enhanced power-reaching law is used to make each stage of the convergence faster. A stability analysis and the system controller’s finite-time convergence are demonstrated in detail. Practical work was conducted on an asymmetrical six-phase induction machine to illustrate the developed discrete approach’s robustness and effectiveness.
