This paper proposes a model predictive torque control strategy based on high order sliding mode speed controllers for three-phase induction motor drive systems. To reduce the influence of the load disturbance on system performance, a second order Super-Twisting sliding mode speed loop controller is designed to replace the traditional PI speed controller. The Lyapunov stability theory is used to analyze its stability and robustness, and then parameter range of the speed control system is obtained. To improve the torque control accuracy, the model predictive torque control is adopted based on the mathematical model of induction motors. Then the cost function is designed by controlling the torque and stator flux, so the optimal output voltage vector is obtained to drive the motor. Simulation results show that the proposed control method not only improves the robustness of the system to load disturbance effectively, but also decreases the ripples of torque and flux, so the motor has good dynamic and static performance.
