In order to implement good control of the permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM), the exact speed and rotor position information is needed.Recently, many studies have performed about sensorless speed control of the PMSM. This paper proposed sensorless speed controls of PMSM by using the Unscented Kalman Filter(UKF).The UKF is designed to eliminate the noise and get to the accuracy value and deals with the estimation of the speed and the rotor position of PMSM. Simulation and experiment have been performed for the verification of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, a sensorless control of PMSG(Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator) for small wind turbine systems, which is based on stator flux and back-emf estimation. Also, a cost-effective AE/DC/AC converter that consists of a two-leg three-phase PWM converter and a half-bridge PWM converter is used for vector control of PMSG, which is impossible with the conventional diode-rectifier type converter. A sensorless control algorithm can eliminate pulse encoders for speed measurement, which reduces the system cost. Using PSIM simulation, the validity of the converter control performance and MPPT control of PMSG have been verified.

본 논문에서는 유도형 활공 탄약의 비행경로 제어와 자세유지를 위해 장착된 꼬리 날개 구동을 위한 BLDC 전동기 제어시스템을 개발하였다. 이 시스템에서는 높은 고도에서의 비행 시 압력에 취약한 홀(Hall) 센서와 같은 회전자의 위치 검출 센서를 사용하지 않는 센서리스(Sensorless) 구동 방식을 적용하였다. 측정된 극전압으로부터 상전환 신호를 추출하여 BLDC 전동기의 센서리스 구동을 실현하였으며, 또한 상전환 신호로부터 추정된 속도를 사용하여 속도 제어를 통해 꼬리날개의 변위 명령 추종을 위한 위치 제어를 수행하였다. 실제 구현된 시스템에서의 실험을 통해 개발된 센서리스 제어 알고리즘을 적용하여 위치 제어의 성능이 우수함을 확인하였다.

Induction motors are relatively cheap and rugged machines. For the vector control of induction motors, a position or speed sensor is needed. But a speed sensor increases motor cost and reduces reliability in harsh environment. Recently, many studies have been performed for sensorless speed control. This paper investigates an improved flux observer with the parameter error compensation for a sensorless induction motor. The proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiment.

This paper describes a new method of detecting rotor position in switched reluctance motor(SRM), Some strategies of position sensorless control methods for the motor include the measurement of phase current and applied pulse voltage in an unexcited phase. The principle of the estimation of a rotor position is based on the detection of inductance by pulse currents. This sensorless method is very simple to compute rotor position estimation and gives efficient control of drive system. Suggested method is verified by some experimental tests.

High efficiency operation is required for motors of vehicle to increase fuel efficiency due to the regulation of exhaust gas. This paper presents a control method of fuel pressure to increase fuel efficiency and a sensorless control method of BLDC motor to get higher efficiency than conventional brushed DC motor. Initial rotor position of BLDC motor is detected from current value that is occurred by test voltage pulse and rotor is accelerated by defined sequence to enter sensorless operation mode. The algorithm to control flow rate of fuel pump uses PI controller that is control motor speed to maintain the target fuel pressure commanded by ECU.

This paper describes a new position sensorless control for the switched reluctance motor (SRM) by monitoring the rate of change of current with respect to the inductance variation. Two consecutive switch-on times in hysteresis current control are compared to calculate the rate of change of current and hence to estimate the rotor position and speed. The proposed sensorless control algorithm is simple to implement as it does not depend on extensive computation or additional hardware. Simulation and experimental results are presented to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed sensorless control method.

The sensorless speed control technique for BLDCM using digital IP control is proposed in this paper for advanced speed characteristic which is robust for loads. The sensorless drive of BLDCM using terminal voltages is affected by load or speed because it uses analog filters to estimate the rotor position. For this reason, the robust speed controller with the accurate rotor position estimator is needed for sensorless control which is robust to load and insensitive to motor parameters. The constant speeds robust to load variation and the stable sensorless control of BLDCM robust to the increase or decrease of speed with constant load are implemented using digital IP control in this paper. The validity to these is established with experimentation.

Lately, many approaches of speed sensorless control method for Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor(IPMSM) ha, been developed. This paper proposes a novel sensorless algorithm for speed estimation of IPMSM. First of all, proposes sensorless method estimates flux of rotor using foundational voltage equation of IPMSM and then estimates position and speed of rotor using Phase Locked Loop(PLL).
