Traditional model-basedtechniques for inverter-fed IM provide a high accuracy but rely heavily on precise motorparameter identification, requiring multiple sensors to monitor the necessary variables.In contrast, model-independent methods that use rotor slot harmonics (RSH) in the sta-tor current spectrum offer a better adaptability to various motor types and conditions.However, many of these techniques are dependent on full-band processing, which reducesnoise immunity and increases computational cost. This paper introduces a novel subbandsignal processing approach for rotor speed estimation focused on RSH tracking underboth steady and non-steady states. By limiting spectral analysis to relevant content, themethod significantly reduces computational demand. The technique employs an advancedtime-frequency analysis for high-resolution frequency identification, even in noisy settings.Simulations and experiments show that the proposed approach outperforms conventionalRSH-based estimators, offering a robust and cost-effective solution for integrated speedmonitoring in practical applications.
