Abstract

High frequency signal injection (HFI) is an alternative method for estimating rotor position of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM). The general method of frequency and amplitude selection is based on error tolerance and experiments, and is usually set with only one group of HF parameters, which is not efficient for different working modes. This paper proposes a novel rotor position estimation scheme by HFI with optimized frequency and amplitude, based on the mathematic model of IPMSM. The requirements for standstill and low-speed operational modes are met by applying this novel scheme. Additionally, the effects of the frequency and amplitude of the injected HF signal on the position estimation results under different operating conditions are analyzed. Furthermore, an optimization method for HF parameter selection is proposed to make the estimation process more efficient under different working conditions according to error tolerance. The effectiveness of the propose scheme is verified by the experiments on an IPMSM motor prototype.
