This study introduces a novel bi input-extended Kalman filter (BI-EKF)-based speed-sensorless direct vector control (DVC) of an induction motor (IM). The proposed BI-EKF-based estimator includes online estimations of the stator stationary axis components of the stator currents, isα and i sβ ; stator stationary axis components of the rotor flux, φrα and φ rβ ; rotor angular velocity, ωm ; stator resistance, Rs ; rotor resistance, Rr ; and load torque tL , as well as the magnetizing inductance, Lm , by only supposing that the stator phase currents and voltages are measured. Thus, the speed-sensorless DVC of the IM with the inclusion of the proposed estimator is able to be perfectly operated at a wide speed range, varying from zero speed to beyond the rated/based speed under the extreme variations in Rs , Rr , tL , and Lm . The simulations confirm the effectiveness of the proposed BI-EKF-based estimator and, consequently, the speed-sensorless DVC of the IM.
