A simple and robust digital current control technique for a permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motor under the parameter variations is presented. Among the various current control schemes for an inverter-fed PM synchronous motor drive, the predictive control is known to give a superior performance. This scheme, however, requires the full knowledge of machine parameters and operating conditions, and cannot give a satisfactory response under the parameter mismatch. To overcome such a limitation, the disturbances caused by the parameter variations will be estimated by using a disturbance observer theory and used for the computation of the reference voltages by a feedforward control. Thus, the steady-state control performance can be significantly improved with a relatively simple control algorithm, while retaining the good characteristics of the predictive control. The proposed control scheme is implemented on a PM synchronous motor using the software of DSP TMS320C30 and the effectiveness is verified through the comparative simulations and experiments.

This paper presents an advanced sensorless permanent magnet (PM) brushless motor controller integrated circuit (IC) employing an automatic lead-angle compensator. The proposed IC is composed of not only a sensorless sine-wave motor controller but also an isolated gate-driver and current self-sensing circuit. The fabricated IC operates in sensorless mode using a position estimator based on a sliding mode observer and an open-loop start-up. For high efficiency PM brushless motor driving, an automatic lead-angle control algorithm is employed, which improves the efficiency of a PM brushless motor system by tracking the minimum copper loss under various load and speed conditions. The fabricated IC is evaluated experimentally using a commercial 200 W PM brushless motor and power switches. The proposed IC is successfully operated without any additional sensors, and the proposed algorithm maintains the minimum current and maximum system efficiency under $0N{\cdot}m$ to $0.8N{\cdot}m$ load conditions. The proposed IC is a feasible sensorless speed controller for various applications with a wide range of load and speed conditions.

Generally, PM BLDC drive system is necessary that the three Hall-ICs evenly be distributed around the stator circumference and encoder installed in case of the 3 phase motor. The Hall-ICs are set up in this motor to detect the main flux from the rotor. So the output signal from Hall-ICs is used to drive a power transistor to control the stator winding current. Instead of using three Hall-ICs and encoder, this paper uses only two Hall-ICs for the permanent magnet rotor position and for the speed feedback signals, and uses a micro controller of 16-bit type(80C196KC) with the 3 phase PM BLDC whose six stator and two rotor designed. Two Hall-IC Hc and $H_B$ are placed on the endplate at 120 degree phase difference. With these elements, we estimate information of the other phase in sequence through a rotating rotor.

The propulsion for locomotive application has changed from the DC motor system to the induction motor system. Although the induction motor system has almost reached the stage of maturity, this system also needs to be changed to the PM motor system for the direct drive without using reduction gear. Thus, the IPMSM (Interior buried Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) has been adopted to meet the locomotive driving specification. Where the wheel is directly dirven by the traction motor. In this paper, the investigation on IPMSM satisfying driving specifications for the direct drive has been performed using the advanced FEM.

This paper presents a Maximum Torque per Ampere (MTPA) control algorithm for an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drive considering the permanent magnet (PM) flux linkage variations due to PM temperature variation. PM flux linkage are estimated in real time via a Gopinath style stator flux linkage observer and a torque error correction factor is calculated from the estimated PM flux linkage. A 2-dimensional (2D) MTPA look-up table (LUT) is developed to achieve the MTPA trajectory reflecting PM flux linkage variation for compensating torque error occurred by parameter variation. The proposed IPMSM control algorithm is verified through simulations.

A new modified trapezoidal modulating signal for a pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter suitable for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive is proposed in this paper. A new modulating signal for the PMSM drive is determined by the characteristic torque ripple of the motor with various electro-motive force (EMF). The proposed modulating signal is able to decrease the torque ripple even if the motor has sinusoidal EMF or non-sinusoidal EMF. By using the proposed modulating signal, the system reduced the torque ripple as well as achieved the effective utilization of the DC supply voltage for the inverter. Many improvements are accomplished by the PWM strategy adapting the modified trapezoidal modulating signal without a change in hardware.

Slotless Permanent magnet Brushless DC Motor(PM BLDC) with the characteristics of high speed and high power density has been more widely used in industrial and automatic machine. Generally, PM BLDC meter is necessary that the three Hall-ICs evenly be distributed around the stator circumference in case of the 3 phase motor. The Hall-ICs are set up in this motor to detect the main flux from the rotor. therefore the output signal from Hall-ICs is used to drive a power transistor to control the stator winding current. However, instead of using three Hall-ICs, if only we used one Hall-IC, we estimate information of the others phase in sequence through a revolving rotor. This paper identified the characteristics and performance by using one Hall-IC for the 3 phase PM BLDC whose six stator and two rotor designed.

A new approach to the position sensor elimination of PM synchronous motor drives is presented in this study. Using the position sensing characteristics of PMSM itself, the actual rotor position as well as the machine speed can be estimated by adaptive flux observer and used as the feedback signal for the vector controlled PMSM drive. The adaptive speed estimation is achieved by model reference adaptive technique. The adaptive laws are derived by the Popov's hyperstability theory and the positivity concept. In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme, computer simulations are carried out for the actual parameters of a PM synchronous motor and the results well demonstrate that the proposed scheme provides a good estimation value of the rotor speed without mechanical sensor. It is also shown that the actual rotor position as well as the machine speed can be achieved under the variation of the magnet flux linkage. Since the flux linkages are estimated by the adaptive flux observer and used for the identification of the rotor speed, robust estimation of the rotor speed can be performed.
