    ENG: Field-oriented control (FOC) of induction motors (IMs) is used in railway rolling stock. In such control systems, a fixed frequency of the pulse-width modulation (PWM) inverter is used, which leads to an increase in power losses in the traction drive. To optimize power losses in the locomotive traction drive system, it is proposed to adapt the number of PWM inverter pulses to the frequency of the FOC speed controller, which is proportional to the locomotive speed. To solve this problem, conceptual foundations for adapting FOC to the locomotive speed have been developed, the key aspects of which are algorithms for adapting the PWM inverter frequency, the controller parameters and the parameters of the FOC speed controller frequency filters. The most significant results of the work are the methods for adjusting the maximum of the controllers of the basic FOC IM system, the filter structure and the inverter control scheme, adapted to the locomotive speed. The modeling results have shown the effectiveness of the proposed technical solutions. The proposed approach to developing FOC will allow minimizing the consumption of energy resources by the locomotive in the entire range of changes in its speed.
