Abstract

A control apparatus for an induction motor is provided and includes a rotating-speed locked loop and a feed-forward magnetizing-axis angular position emulator. The rotating-speed locked loop emulates a speed control loop of the induction motor for producing an emulated torque current and an emulated rotor angular speed. The feed-forward magnetizing-axis angular position emulator receives the emulated torque current and the emulated rotor angular speed for producing a feed-forward estimated magnetizing-axis angular position, wherein according to the feed-forward estimated magnetizing-axis angular position, a first voltage controlling the induction motor is transformed from a synchronous reference coordinate system of the induction motor to a static reference coordinate system of the induction motor, and a two-phase current detected from the induction motor is transformed from the static reference coordinate system to the synchronous reference coordinate system. The state the stator angular frequency is at zero can be skipped through the apparatus.
