MUMBAI, India, April 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641043134 A) filed by Mepco Schlenk Engineering College, Sivakasi, Tamil Nadu, on April 4, for 'direct torque control of srm drive for electric vehicle by using ann-lstm controllers.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. S. Muralidharan; Dr. K. Jayanthi; and Dr. J. Gnanavadivel.

The application for the patent was published on April 17, under issue no. 16/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an advanced control system for a switched reluctance motor drive used in electric vehicles, integrating direct torque control with a hybrid artificial intelligence approach based on artificial neural networks and long short-term memory models. The system enhances torque and flux regulation by effectively addressing nonlinear characteristics and dynamic variations of the motor. The ANN enables accurate nonlinear mapping and estimation, while the LSTM captures temporal dependencies to improve predictive control performance. This integrated approach significantly reduces torque ripple, minimizes acoustic noise, and improves overall efficiency. The system adapts to varying operating conditions such as load and temperature changes without requiring precise mathematical models. It also supports regenerative braking and optimized energy utilization. Designed for real-time implementation, the proposed controller ensures robust, reliable, and high-performance operation, making it highly suitable for modern electric vehicle propulsion systems."
