	| Abstract | 
	Recently, sensorless induction motor drives have been much studied due to several advantages. Sensorless drives eliminate the additional mounting space, increase the reliability in harsh environments, and reduce the cost of a motor. This paper investigates an improved sliding mode observer for the sensorless speed control of an induction motor. The proposed control strategy is the sliding mode observer with a variable boundary layer for a low-chattering and fast-response control. The proposed sensorless-algorithm is verified through the simulation and experimentation.  |
