Abstract

Induction motor (IM) drives often suffer performance degradation under load variations and parameter uncertainties when using conventional proportional–integral (PI)- based field-oriented control (FOC). To address these issues, this study proposes a composite control framework combining a PI regulator in the speed loop with a Lyapunov-based variable-gain super twisting algorithm (VGSTA) for the inner current loops to enhance robustness against disturbances and parameter variations. In addition, a load torque observer is developed to estimate unknown disturbances in real time and generate an equivalent compensation current, thereby improving disturbance rejection. Unlike existing approaches, the proposed strategy achieves a balance between simplicity, robustness, and smooth control by integrating classical PI control with higher-order sliding mode techniques and adaptive observer dynamics. Furthermore, the controller and observer gains are optimized using particle swarm optimization (PSO) to improve convergence and reduce overshoot under uncertain conditions. Simulation results demonstrate accurate speed regulation, effective chattering reduction, and reliable operation under load and parameter variations. Due to its low computational complexity and high robustness, the proposed method is well suited for industrial drive systems and electric mobility applications.

Abstract

This paper presents a novel hybrid control strategy that integrates a proportional-integral (PI) regulator with an adaptive super-twisting sliding mode controller (ASTA) defined on a nonsingular terminal sliding mode control (NTSMC) surface for high-performance induction motor drives (IMDs). This enhanced hybrid PI-ASTA-NTSMC architecture jointly exploits the steady-state accuracy of PI control and the finite-time robustness of a higher-order sliding mode formulation. The adaptive mechanism of the super-twisting algorithm dynamically adjusts the switching gains according to the instantaneous sliding variable, ensuring consistent performance under time-varying loads and parameter variations. The NTSMC surface guarantees singularity-free finite-time convergence, while the adaptive ASTA law suppresses chattering and enhances disturbance rejection. Simulation results across multiple operating conditions show that the proposed controller significantly outperforms PI and PI-FOSMC schemes. It achieves the fastest transient, reducing settling time to 0.0407 s (39.4% and 31.5% faster than PI and PI-FOSMC), with overshoot lowered to 0.0091 rad/s and ISE/IAE minimized to 0.0035 and 0.0256, confirming its superior tracking precision. Additionally, reductions in the speed and torque RMSE indicate smoother control effort and improved closed-loop performance. The Lyapunov-based analysis confirms global finite-time stability of the overall system. With its enhanced robustness, low sensitivity to sampling noise, and continuous higher-order sliding structure that suppresses chattering, the proposed hybrid PI–ASTA–NTSMC offers a computationally efficient and practically attractive solution for integrated speed–flux control in industrial IM drives.
