An Adaptive Control of Electric Vehicle Based on Nine Switches Inverter Fed Two Induction Motors

This paper deals with an adaptive control of two driving-wheels electric vehicle. Indeed, an Indirect Field Oriented Control of two induction motors fed simultaneously by Nine Switches Inverter has been included. Hence, to ensure an independent control of the two induction motors, a specified Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation strategy for Nine Switches Inverter is developed. For this, a switching table and a switch-over bloc are proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed control strategy is evaluated and validated by simulations and experimental tests. In this context, the developed system can be used as a promising solution for an independent control of two driving wheels of electric vehicle using a software differential.
