This paper proposes a novel method for vector control of faulty three-phase Induction Motor (IM) drives based on Field-Oriented Control (FOC) method. The performance characteristics of the presented drive system are investigated at healthy and open-phase fault conditions. The simulation of the case study is carried out by using the Matlab/M-File software for a star-connected three-phase IM. The results show the better performance of the proposed drive system especially in reduction of motor speed and torque oscillations during open-phase fault operating.
