Abstract

In this paper, an on-line dead-time compensation method based on a time delay control approach is presented. The disturbance voltages caused by the dead time are estimated in an on-line manner by the time delay control without any additional circuits and off-line experimental measurements. And the estimated disturbance voltages are fed to voltage references in order to compensate the dead-time effects. The proposed method is applied to a PM synchronous motor drive system and implemented by using software of a digital signal processor (DSP) TMS320C31. Experiments are carried out for this system and the results well demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
