Abstract

In switched reluctance motor(SRM) drive, it is necessary to synchronize the stator phase excitation with the rotor position. Therefore, the rotor position information is essential. Usually, optical encoders or resolvers are used to provide the rotor position information. These sensors are expensive and are not suitable for high speed operation. This paper proposes a new encoder for high performance excitation control of SRM. The proposed encoder has complex structures of incremental and absolute encoder. An each phase inductance profile can be synchronized with 4-bit absolute position signal and incremental pulses are used for speed detection. Low cost and simple structure are possible.
