Model-based predictive control (MPC) is one of the most efficient techniques that is widely used in industrial applications. In such controllers, increasing the prediction horizon results in better selection of the optimal control signal sequence. On the other hand, increasing the prediction horizon increase the computational time of the optimization process which make it impossible to be imple...

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 ...

This paper presents a novel sensorless control method of permanent magnet synchronous motors at standstill and low speed based on a low-frequency current signal injection. The approach superimposes a persistent LF current 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 posi...

This paper presents the design process of a high performance 3-phase 3.7 kW 2-pole line start permanent magnet synchronous motor for pumping system. A method was proposed to study the starting torque characteristics considering line start with high inertia load. A d-q model including cage was built to study the synchronization capability. Time-stepping finite element method analysis was utilize...

Real-time thermal management of electrical machines relies on sufficiently accurate indicators of internal temperature. One indicator of temperature in a permanent-magnet synchronous motor is the stator winding resistance. This study applies two current injection techniques to a commercially produced permanent-magnet servomotor, which are applicable under load and cause minimal disturbance to t...

Design optimisation of electrical machines, in particular permanent magnet synchronous disc motors, is very important, but quite a complicated problem. A reasonably simplified form of the design procedure may be attacked by various approaches accumulated into two main topics; classical optimisation techniques (deterministic methods) or genetic algorithms (stochastic methods). Genetic algorithm ...

This study presents a novel means of designing a simple and effective torque controller for Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). The overall stability of the system is shown using Lyapunov technique. The Lyapunov functions used contain a term penalizing the integral of the tracking error, enhancing the stability. The tracking error is shown to be globally uniformly bounded. Simulation res...
