Abstract: This paper presents a literature survey on the vector control techniques for the induction motor drive. Various vector control techniques based on microprocessor/digital control, model adaptive reference control, intelligent control, sliding mode control and decoupling control are described. Uncertainties of parameter are important issue in vector control. Parameter needs to be identified clearly. Different parameter identification methods are discussed. Attempt is made to provide a guideline and quick reference for the researchers and practising engineers those are working in the area of vector control.

Keywords: FOC; field oriented control; intelligent control; MARC; model adaptive reference control; microprocessor control; observers; SMC; sliding mode control; vector control; induction motor drives; decoupling control; parameter uncertainties; parameter identification.
