In this paper a comparison of the initial rotor position estimation methods by two type search coils for switched reluctance motor(SRM) is presented. The experimental results of the two methods show that the interior central pole search coil method has better performance than the exterior pole search coil method. The reason of the discrepancy in performance is described.

Recently, PMSMs(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors) have become increasingly popular in various high-performance motor drive applications. However, the high-performance drive of PMSMs needs a position sensor such as a resolver, which increases not only the price of the system but also reduces the system reliability. This paper is on the implementation of sensorless control of a SPMSM, which drives a fan for cooling in appliances. In this paper, the rotor position for high-performance drive of a SPMSM is derived from back electromotive force (EMF) information proportional to the rotor speed. Also, the initial rotor position information for start-up is estimated from a saturation phenomenon of inductance. The validity of the proposed sensorless drives was confirmed by the experiment on the SPMSM drive systems for cooling fans of refrigerators and laptop computers.

Because few signals are generated using low resolution position sensor at low speed, rotor position estimation is difficult in drum washing machine application. Besides, inertia of water and drum affect the initial operation load up to two times of rated load. Therefore overcurrent can be occurred at initial operation. In this paper, IPMSM vector control for drum washing machine is proposed by applying I/F initial operating method and sensorless control. And we verify the performance through experiment.

시선 위치 추적이란 모니터상에 사용자가 쳐다보고 있는 지점을 파악해 내는 기술이다 이 논문에서는 컴퓨터 비젼 방법을 이용하여 사용자가 모니터 상에 어느 지점을 쳐다보고 있는지를 파악(시선 위치 추적)하는 새로운 방법을 제안한다. 시선위치를 파악하기 위해 본 논문에서는 얼굴 영역 및 얼굴 특징점(양 눈, 양 콧구멍, 입술 끝점 등)을 2차원 카메라 영상으로부터 추출하였으며, 이들의 움직임으로부터 카메라 보정 및 매개변수 추정 방법등을 이용하여 초기 3차원 위치를 추정해 내었다. 이후 모니터 상의 한 지점을 쳐다보기 위해 사용자가 얼굴을 움직이는 경우 이러한 얼굴의 3차원 움직임 량 역시 자동으로 추정하였다. 이로부터 변화된 얼굴 특징점의 3차원 위치를 계산해 낼 수 있었으며, 이를 바탕으로 모니터 상의 시선 위치를 구하였다. 실험 결과, 19인치 모니터상의 임의의 지점을 사용자가 쳐다보았을 때, 약 2.01인치의 시선 위치에러 성능을 얻었다.

Conventional DLLs estimate the delay times of satellite signals individually and feed back these measurements to the VCO independently. But VDLL estimates delay times and user position directly and then estimate the feedback term for VCO using the estimated position changes. In this process, input measurements are treated as vectors and these vectors are used for navigation. First advantage of VDLL is that noise is reduced in all of the tracking channels making them less likely to enter the nonlinear region and fall below threshold. Second is that VDLL can operate successfully when the conventional independent parallel DLL approach fails completely. It means that VDLL receiver can get enough total signal power to track successfully to obtain accurate position estimates under the same conditions where the signal strength from each individual satellite is so low or week that none of the individual scalar DLL can remain in lock when operating independently. To operate VDLL successfully, it needs to know the initial user dynamics and position and prevents total system from the divergence. The suggested integration method is to use the inertial navigation system to provide initial dynamics for VDLL and to maintain total system stable. We designed the GPS/INS integrated navigation system. This new type of integrated system contained the vector pseudorange format generation block, VDLL signal processing block, position estimation block and the conversion block from position change to delay time feedback term aided by INS.

본 논문에서는 수동 RFID 환경에서 획득되는 위치 및 시간 정보를 이용하여, 태그가 배치된 노면을 주행하는 이동로봇의 위치를 효과적으로 추정하는 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 위치 추정 기법은 기존 연구에 비해 위치 추정 오차를 감소시키고 또한 초기 태그 배치 비용을 감소시키는 효과가 있다. 기본적으로 이동로봇이 일련의 직선 구간을 구간별로 일정한 속도로 주행하며, 또한 매 순간 이동로봇에 의해 감지되는 태그의 수는 한 개 이하라고 가정한다. 첫째, 이미 알려진 지점을 출발하여 정속 직선 주행하는 이동로봇의 속도 및 위치를 추정하는 알고리즘을 개발하는데, 이는 최초를 제외한 여타 구간의 경우에 유효하다. 다음, 최초 구간의 경우 출발 위치를 모르는 상태이므로, 이동로봇이 두 개 이상의 태그를 정속 직선 주행하도록 하여 이동로봇의 속도 및 위치를 추정한다. 마지막으로, 제작된 수동 RFID 위치 추정 시스템을 이용한 실험을 통해 본 논문에서 제안된 이동로봇 위치 추정 기법의 유효성 및 성능을 입증한다.

This paper presents a sensorless speed control of a 2-phase switch reluctance motor(SRM). The proposed sensorless control scheme is based on the slide mode observer with parameter compensator to improve the estimation performance. In the stand still position, the initial rotor position is determined by pulse current responses of each phase windings and the current difference. In order to determine an accurate initial rotor position, the two initial rotor positions are estimated by the difference of the pulse currents. From the stand still to the operating region, a simple open loop control which determines the commutation sequence by the pulse current of the unexcited phase winding is used. When the motor speed is reached to the sensorless control region, the estimated rotor position and speed by the slide mode observer are used to control the SRM. The flux calculator used in the slide mode observer is designed by phase voltage and the voltage drops in the phase resistance of the winding. The accuracy of the flux calculator is dependent on the phase resistance. For the continuous update of the phase resistance, current gradient at the inductance break point is used in this paper. The error of the estimated rotor position at the current gradient position is used to update the phase resistance to improve the sensorless scheme. The proposed sensorless speed control scheme is verified with a practical compressor used in home appliances. And the results show the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

This paper propose a method to detect the rotor position of IPMSM(Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor) at standstill without a position sensor. The proposed method is based on current variation caused by the magnetic saturation of stator core as rotor position. By choosing an appropriate voltage vector and applying it to phase winding, it enables the algorithm to discern between a north pole and south pole, and subsequently estimates an absolute position. This method dose not depend on the model of the motor and the motor parameter.

This paper presents a new method of detecting rotor position in Toroidal Switched Reluctance Motor(TSRM). In this paper, low cost and robust characteristics of rotor position detection method are focused in order to compensate for disadvantage of general sensors. Search coils wound through the hole of the stator poles are used for detection of the rotor position in TSRM. Rotor position detection is achieved through electromotive force patterns induced by time-varying flux linkage in the search coils and then adequate phase is excited for drive. The initial rotor position estimation method is also described. The validity of the method is verified by experimental results.

A Switched Reluctance Generator attracts much attention in the generator because of high efficiency, simplicity, and ruggedness. However, they require rotor position information to operate. In many systems, the rotor position sensor is expensive, limited and undesirable. This paper describes a new approach to estimating the rotor position of a SRG from the measured terminal voltage and current for rotor position sensorless control. The proposed method Is based on the instantaneous inductance of the SRG. The proposed technique is very simple and it is able to apply to high speed operation under the stable condition because of its simplicity. The initial rotor position estimation algorithm is efficient and reliable. The proposed method is verified by computer simulation.
