In the Special Issue “Advanced Control for Electric Drives”, the objective is to address a variety of issues related to advances in control techniques for electric drives, implementation challenges, and applications in emerging fields such as electric vehicles, unmanned aerial vehicles, maglev trains and motion applications. This issue includes 15 selected and peer-reviewed articles discussing a wide range of topics, where intelligent control, estimation and observation schemes were applied to electric drives for various applications. Different drives were studied such as induction motors, permanent magnet synchronous motors and brushless direct current motors.
