Direct Torque Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors

Digital Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) variable-speed drive is widely used in the industry because of its particularly high mechanical power density, simplicity and cost effectiveness. Eliminating the mechanical sensor mounted on the shaft of the motors gives further improvement. These drives are referred to as “sensorless” electrical drives. In this paper a novel sensorless algorithm is pro...

Vector Control for an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine with Maximum Torque per Ampere Strategy

The main objective of this paper is to show a methodology to implement a Maximum Torque per Ampere Strategy (MTPA) in an Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machine (IPMSM). IPMSM ́s have been broadly used on industry in the last years for having excellent dynamic performance and high power density. In this article, vector control and MTPA theory and criteria are firstly detailed. Then, the ma...

Adaptive Voltage-based Control of Direct-drive Robots Driven by Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors

Tracking control of the direct-drive robot manipulators in high-speed is a challenging problem. The Coriolis and centrifugal torques become dominant in the high-speed motion control. The dynamical model of the robotic system including the robot manipulator and actuators is highly nonlinear, heavily coupled, uncertain and computationally extensive in non-companion form. In order to overcome thes...

Fuzzy Logic-Based Vector Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Using Stacked Matrix Converter for Railway Traction Applications

Recently, Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs) have been widely accepted and employed in traction and railway transportation applications due to their various advantages such as small inertia, high efficiency and high torque density. In this paper, in order to use these motors as traction drives in an effective way, the vector control scheme is employed. In this strategy, the stator curr...
