Field orientation has emerged as a powerful tool for controlling ac machines such as inverter-supplied induction motors. The dynamic performance of such a drive is comparable to that of a converterfed four quadrant dc drive. The complex functions required by filed-oriented control may be executed by microprocessors on line, thus greatly reducing the necessary control hardware. It is shown that the flux signals may be derived from sensing coils or, with some compromise in performance, from the stator voltages and currents. The speed signal is obtained from a digital tachometer. Results from a 2-kW experimental drive are given.
