This thesis proposes a direct field oriented control (D-FOC) and direct torque control (DTC) strategies with Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy controllers (T-S fuzzy). Also it proposes a DTC strategy based on load angle control with the use of sliding mode control (DTC-SMC). The proposed vector control strategies are used for high performance control of three-phase induction motor. The proposed T-S fuzzy controller uses a single rule base to generate the direct-axis and quadrature-axis components of the stator voltage space vector. This simplifies the structure of the T-S fuzzy controller and consequently it reduces the computational cost and its processing time. However, in the sliding mode control the control effort is always the maximum possible in order to reduce the errors of the torque and the flux. Hence, it is possible to get a fast response in the control of the torque and the flux. The proposed controllers showed a good dynamic performance because the references were achieved. The experimental and simulation results of the vector control strategies were presented to validate the proposed controllers. All the obtained results were consistent with the results reported in the literature, validating the proposed DTC and D-FOC strategies.
