Try to using it: `Context::getContext()->controller`

get_class($this)
or
write it in your front controller and you will have controller name in all of your tpl files
self::$smarty->assign('currentController', get_class($this));

In your smarty template file (.tpl) use this code to get controller name.

{* Example URL Example.com/index.php?id_category=4&controller=category}

{assign var='controllerName' value=$smarty.get.controller}

{$controllerName}

OR

{$smarty.get.controller}
