Sensorless Speed Control with Initial Rotor Position Estimation for Surface Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Drive in Electric Vehicles

The accurate information of the initial rotor position is very critical for successful starting of the Surface-mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (SPMSM). In order to solve the problems of low accuracy and unreliability in the conventional estimation strategy, in this paper, an improved initial rotor position estimation strategy without any position sensor for SPMSM at standstill is pro...

Initial Rotor Position Estimation and Sensorless Direct Torque Control of Surface Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors Considering Saturation Saliency

For a p ractical direct torque controlled (DTC) permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive system, the information of the initial rotor position, which is usually obtained by a mechanical position sensor, is essential for starting under the full load. In order to avoid the disadvantages of using mechanical position sensors, great efforts have been made on the development of sensorless cont...

Speed Sensorless Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors in Mine Electric Locomotive Drive

This paper presents a novel sensorless control method of permanent magnet synchronous motors a low speed based on a high-frequency voltage signal injection. The approach superimposes a persistent HF voltage signal into the estimated d-axis to get the rotor position error angle-related signal by detecting the corresponding voltage response and current response. Then the rotor position and motor ...

Trends in Sensorless Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Drive

Vector control has been widely used in control of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) where the information of rotor position is required. Shaft position sensor such as an optical shaft position encoder or Hall Effect sensor is fitted to provide a signal that is used to maintain an appropriate space angle between the stator and rotor fields in the motor. Even though this method is very p...
