To address the speed synchronization error in the dual permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) control system for mining electric locomotives, this paper proposes an improved synchronous control method based on multi-strategy optimized cross-coupling control. The synchronization error characteristics are analyzed, and the dual-motor system model is established under the cross-coupling structure. A double exponential decay prescribed performance function is designed to achieve fast error convergence combined with Lyapunov stability analysis. Meanwhile, a disturbance observer is constructed to estimate and compensate for the lumped disturbance, thus improving control accuracy. Furthermore, a non-singular integral terminal sliding mode controller is designed to satisfy error constraints and enhance system stability. Experimental results demonstrate that compared with traditional cross-coupling control, the proposed method shortens the settling time by 25% and restricts the overshoot within 20 r/min under no-load conditions. Under sudden load impact, the speed recovery time is reduced by 28%, and the synchronization error is significantly reduced.
