The inverter is an essential part of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive systems. The performance of an inverter is greatly influenced by its modulation strategy. Using a proper management of modulation strategies can guarantee high performance from a PMSM under various speed conditions. Switching between modulations is a pivotal technique that determines the performance of a PMSM. Most works on hybrid methods focus on two-level induction motors drive systems. In this paper, in order to improve the performance of PMSMs under various speed conditions, a hybrid method of a pulse width modulation (PWM) control scheme based on a neutral-point-clamped (NPC) three level topology was proposed. This hybrid PWM modulation comprised space vector PWM (SVPWM) and selective harmonic elimination PWM (SHEPWM). Under low speed conditions, the SVPWM is employed to cause the PMSM to start smoothly, and to obtain a rapid response from the control system. Under high speed conditions, the SHEPWM is employed to reduce the switching frequency and to eliminate particular current harmonics. Moreover, the harmonic characteristics of different modulations are analyzed to obtain a smooth transition between the SHEPWM and the SVPWM. Experimental and simulation results indicated the effectiveness of the proposed control method.

Six-phase motors can be used in industrial applications, such as an electric vehicle, due to their high reliability and low current magnitude per phase. An asymmetrical PMSM with two sets of three-phase windings is a commonly used structure for six-phase motors, with each winding set demonstrating a phase difference of 30°. Although the asymmetrical PMSM presents low torque ripples, its dynamic torque response deteriorates due to coupled components in the two three-phase windings. The decoupled VSD control is applied to eliminate the coupling effect. Load ratio control of two inverters for the six-phase PMSM is proposed in this study. DQ currents are controlled on the basis of two synchronous reference frames, and the six-phase drive system can be changed to a three-phase drive system when one inverter presents fault conditions. The operation and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through simulation and experiments. The six-phase drive system is transferred to a three-phase drive system by changing the current reference of the second DQ reference frame. Moreover, control of both torque and speed exhibits satisfactory performance before and after the mode change.

PMSM 구동을 위한 PWM 인버터에서는 DC 링크의 단락으로 인한 스위칭 소자의 파괴를 방지하기 위하여 인버터에 데드타임을 적용하며, 이는 인버터의 출력 전압과 전류 왜곡, 토크 리플을 일으키는 원인이 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 파라미터 변화에 무관한 데드타임 보상기법이 제안되며 제안된 기법의 타당성이 시뮬레이션을 통해 입증된다.

영구자석 동기전동기(PMSM)를 제어 하기 위해서는 정확한 회전자 위치 검출장치가 필요하다. 일반적으로 위치 검출을 위한 장치로는 엔코더와 레졸버가 사용된다. 정확한 회전자의 위치를 검출하기 위해서는 엔코더보다 레졸버를 사용하게 되는데 레졸버를 사용하기 위해서는 RDC(Resolver-to-Digital Converter)가 필요하게 된다. 본 논문에서는 RDC회로를 사용하지 않고 회전자의 위치 검출을 위한 인터페이스를 구상하였고 RDC회로를 사용하지 않아도 동일 한 성능을 보인다는 것을 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

This paper presents a two Hall sensor method for rotor angle detection in permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM). To minimize the implementation complexity, the system is designed to measure the edge field of permanent magnet pieces. However, there are nonlinearities in the measured values of the edge field. In this work, an angle correction algorithm is proposed, and the improvements in accuracy are verified through experiments. Finally, a field orientation controller is constructed with the proposed angle detection algorithm.
