This paper presents a simplified analysis on the rotor position detection error in sensorless interior permanent magnet brushless DC motor (BLDCM) drives, wherein terminal voltage sensing based on the back-electromotive force (back-EMF) zero-crossing point detecting circuitry is employed. The effect of a rotor saliency on the back-EMF's zero-crossing point detection is analyzed using the extended EMF-based voltage equation of the interior permanent BLDCM in a stationary reference frame, and thus the overall analysis is considerably simplified compared to the conventional one. Simulation results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Brushless DC Motor (BLDCM) is DC motor and Interior PM Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) is AC motor. Besides their way of control is different. But it is similar that both motors rotate synchronous velocity and use the permanent magnet. So, it is an objective to grasp a tendency of motor design and efficiency of motor through a characteristic comparison of BLDCM and IPMSM with the same power, rotation velocity, torque and input voltage.
