This paper proposes a method that allows the operation with direct torque control under incipient faults of the power switching devices in single dc-link dual inverters. Once the fault onset of the switching device is detected, the troubled devices are put under trigger suppression to regain operation. The proposed control algorithm makes use of additional states, termed opportunistic states, to maintain control of the induction machine. Simulations and experimental results confirm the capabilities of the technique for up to six devices under trigger suppression.
