1. WTRODUC~ION
The indu&on motor is superior to the dc motor in numerous
aspects such as performance, power to weight ratio, maximum
speed capability, efficiency, low initial cost and robustness.
Nonetheless, the induction machine has a very non-linear
niultmriable structure and consequently it is very difficult to
control. By placing a vector controller between the induction
motor and the main controller, the motor can be forced to yield a
fast torque response similar to that of a separately excited dc
motor. However, a prerequisite for the correct operation of the
vector controller is an accurate knowledge of rotor velocity, a,,
and rotor time constant, T,. However, evaluation of a, requires
extra speed transducers and the value of T,. is directly affectedby
changes in the resistance of tlie rotor bars caused by clmiges in
teniprature. This pap addressesthese problenis by introducing
a novel, cheap and practical method for continuous on-line
estinlation of these variables.

Also, under vector control conditions and if the stator
currents hold a quasi-sinusoidal form, the following can be

This value was then filtered and used to update the value of
the rotor time constant in the controller. The results are
shown in Fig. 7. As can be seen, the output torque improves
dramatically between 0.4 s to 0.6 s as the output of the filter
quickly settles to the correct value. Indeed, when the
negative speed demand is requested at t = 1 s this value has
completely settled, and again perfect vector control is
achieved, thus verifying the correct operation of the system
under PWM conditions.

VI. CONCLUSIONS
A novel algorithm for the evaluation of a, is presented.
The proposed scheme has the following advantages:
It does not require any extra transducers.
It does not inject any test signals into the stator.
0 It provides continuous on-line estimation and work under
almost all operating conditions.
It is simple and cheap to implement practically.
