This article describes a simultaneous and decoupled scheme for the control of levitation and propulsion forces of single-sided linear induction motors (SLIMs). The proposed control scheme utilizes a highly accurate SLIM analytical model to ensure the operation of the motor at the best efficiency point while achieving lift and thrust forces decoupling through a multi-frequency supply strategy adapted from the literature. The described control scheme has been implemented and validated in MATLAB Simulink.
