The high-frequency signals normally used for sensorless operations in anisotropic permanent magnet synchronous motors cause unwanted torque ripple, noise and vibrations.

Abstract

The high-frequency signals normally used for sensorless operations in anisotropic permanent magnet synchronous motors cause unwanted torque ripple, noise and vibrations. The target of the present research is to extend downwards the speed range in which the sensorless drive can work without any signal injection. Specifically, the paper proposes a new back-electromotive force observer that eliminates the instability that may arise in conventional observers when the motor drive operates in generating mode. Two different versions of the observer are proposed and discussed, to include motors with high harmonic content in the back-electromotive force. The detailed mathematical analysis of the proposed observer is supported by simulations and the practical feasibility is proven through experimental results.
