The purpose of this paper is to design the robust fault-tolerant control FTC open-circuit fault IGBT's, first of all. The modeling and control of the induction motor in the healthy inverter and in the faulty inverter (open-circuit fault at the IGBT switch) are proposed. Furthermore, the technique for detection and location the open-circuit fault an IGBT based on the Park vector combined with the polar coordinate. In order to ensure the service continuity of the system, two methods of tolerance are developed: the first method, the indirect vector control with H ∞ controller of the induction motor fed by a three-phase inverter based on the fault compensation. The second method, the indirect vector control of the induction motor fed by a three-phase inverter with the redundant leg. Finally, comparative study between the two techniques of tolerance is carried out. The performance of each technique is confirmed by experimental results.
