Abstract: This paper proposes a new fuzzy logic-based rotor flux model reference adaptive system (FLC-MRAS) for rotor speed estimation in induction motor drives, replacing the constant-gain PI controller used in conventional MRAS schemes. The proposed observer simultaneously incorporates both rotor flux and electromagnetic torque errors to enhance estimation accuracy and robustness against load torque disturbances. A nonlinear Mamdani-type fuzzy logic controller (FLC) with two inputs and one output, employing triangular membership functions and seven fuzzy sets, is adopted. The effectiveness and useful operational performance of the proposed approach is examined through extensive simulation cases under various vehicle speed driving profiles and load torque conditions using an indirect vector-controlled induction motor drive. In order to investigate the effective operational performance of a speed estimator, different cases are prepared according to the vehicle requirements. To examine the robustness of the proposed observer under realistic operating conditions, rotor resistance variation is incorporated into the simulation framework. This approach allows assessment of MRAS performance under practical nonlinearities and parameter uncertainties encountered in real applications. Comparative results demonstrate superior speed regulation and speed tracking, reduced estimation error, and faster convergence of the adaptive tuning signal for better speed estimation compared to the PI-MRAS observer. The proposed scheme provides the suitable choice of traction drive adoption for electric vehicle (EV) applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
