This paper presents an improved approach for compensating rotor position signal displacement in brushless DC (BLDC) motors with misaligned hall-effect sensors. Typically, the hall-effect sensors in BLDC motors are located in each phase and positioned exactly 120 electrical degrees apart. However, limitations in mechanical tolerances make it difficult to place hall-effect sensors at the correct location. In this paper, a position error compensator to counteract the hall-effect sensor positioning error is proposed. The proposed position error compensator uses least squares error analysis to adjust the relative position error and back-EMF information to reduce the absolute offset error. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified through several experiments.

Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM) is rotated by reluctance force generated between rotor pole and stator pole. So SRM must be switched by exciting current according to rotor position. but SRM takes the advantages of high speed driving and very simple structure. The single phase SRM can not be start by itself and torque ripple is generated more than multi-phase SRM. But mechanical structure and driver is simpler than multi-phase SRM. The single phase SRM driver is composed with the absolute encoder and DSP to control exciting section and current, and is supplied by constant voltage. So The paper is intend to measure the speed charactrer of double silent pole type SRM by using the unipolar driving curcuit.

As the exciting point of each phase is determined by the position of rotor, the rotor's accurate position-information is needed for the Switched Reluctance Motor(SRM). When using an absolute-encoder or a resolver, to detect the location of rotor the initial starting is possible, as early sensing of rotor's location is possible. However, this is not appropriate, considering the economical efficiency, and in case of using the incremental-encoder, there's a problem at initial starting as it is not easy to track down the location of rotor at the very beginning. When using Hall-ICs, there's a fault, as it needs a special ring magnet. Considering the initial starting and economical efficiency, the optical sensor technique using a slotted-disk and an opto-interrupter is appropriate, however, this method needs three opto-interrupters and a slotted-disk when using the 6/4 pole SRM. Nevertheless, in this paper, it used only two optical sensors to operate 6/4 pole SRM and made the start up and also forward and reverse operation possible. By excluding the slotted-disc md shortening a optical sensor, it improved the convenience and economical efficiency of the production. Also, as the space for slotted-disc is no more needed, it was able to reduce the size of motor.

Since rotor position information is necessary to drive the SRM, absolute-encoder, resolver and incremental-encoder is used to detect a poor position. But, it is not desirable to use a high priced encoder and high efficient microprocessor under the condition of the simple driving system when precision control is not demanded. In this paper, Only using the reflective type 2 photosensors replace the conventional opto interrupter and slotted disk, which not only remove a slotted disk section but drive 3-phase 6/4 SRM bidirectionally. Moreover, as control circuit only is composed of common analog device economy is maximized.

In this paper, we introduce a method of determining the absolute position of the rotor for the vector control of Hall sensor type multi-pole BLDC motor using the DSP(TMS320F28335), and implement an algorithm to complement the problems of the conventional method. The switching method of the inverter for providing desired sinusoidal current to each phase of a motor, we adopt Space-Vector pulse width modulation method. In order to increase the speed range, Field-Weakness control method are used. In order to verify the proposed algorithm, we compare the value of Iqe, Ide and phase currents with the values before compensated.

In this paper, we designed a current controlling servo system for speed control of a PMSM. In existing auto-tuning methods for PI controller parameters, the output response is delayed and the overshoot is generated. By solving these existing problems in this paper, a new PI auto-tuning method is applied to the speed controller for fast-response and reduced overshoot. PMSM servo systems offer a great advantage in unmanned factories where a great number of servo motors are employed, because of its easy maintenance characteristics and controllability. The implemented servo system is composed of absolute position detecting circuits of a rotor, a new auto-tuning PI control algorithm, a speed controller by using DSP, and power driving section. The proposed servo system is verified for it's practical availability by considering experimental results.
