This paper reports a sinusoidal $180^{\circ}$ drive for a permanent magnet (PM) brushless motor employing automatic angle compensator to suppress the driving loss during the wide-range load operation. The proposed drive of the sinusoidal $180^{\circ}$ PM Brushless motor reduced the amplitude of the 3-phase current by compensating for the lead-angle of the fundamental waves of the 3-phase PWM signal. The conventional lead-angle method was implemented using the fixed angle or memorized table, whereas the proposed method was automatically compensated by calculating the angle of the current and voltage signal. The algorithm of the proposed method was verified in a 30 W PM brushless motor system using a PSIM simulator. The efficiency of the conventional method was decreased 90 % to 60 %, whereas that of proposed method maintained approximately 85 % when the load shift was 0 to $0.02N{\cdot}m$. Using an FPGA prototype, the proposed method was evaluated experimentally in a 30 W PM brushless motor system. The proposed method maintained the minimum phase RMS current and 79 % of the motor efficiency under 0 to $0.09N{\cdot}m$ load conditions. The proposed PM brushless motor driving method is suitable for a variety of applications with a wide range of load conditions.

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.

최근 각종 산업기기 및 자동화기기에는 회전자가 영구자석으로 구성된 브러시리스 전동기의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 그러나 회전자가 영구자석으로 이루어진 BLDC전동기의 경우 회전자 위치 판별 센서는 필수 요소이다. PM BLDC 전동기의 속도제어를 수행함에 있어 기존의 엔코더와 Hall-IC 3개를 이용하지 않고, 2개의 Hall-IC로 3상 motor의 나머지 한상의 Hall-IC 신호를 추정하였다. 또한 사용된 PM BLDC motor는 고속속도를 가지는 특성을 가지고 있지만 Hall-IC를 이용하여 속초제어를 하기 때문에 속도의 오차 량이 상당히 크다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 이러한 단점을 개선하기 위해 저가의 PLL회로를 적용하였다. 또한 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 검증하였다.

A method of design optimization for minimization of force ripple and maximization of thrust force in a linear brushless permanent magnet motor without finite element analysis is represented. The design optimization method calculated the driving force in the function of electric and geometric parameters of a linear brushless PM motor using the sequential quadratic programming method. Using electric and geometric parameters obtained by this method, the normalized force ripple is reduced 7.7% (9.7% to 2.0%) and the thrust force is increased 12.88N (111.55N to 124.43N) compared to those not using design optimization.

The performance of two designs of permanent magnet brushless motor, by having self-shielding magnetized magnets or sinusoidally shaped parallel-magnetized magnets with essentially sinusoidal airgap flux distributions, are compared. It is shown that the parallel-magnetized motor with shaped sintered NdFeB magnets can result in a higher airgap flux density and torque density than that of a self-shielding magnetized motor equipped with an anisotropic injection moulded NdFeB ring magnet.

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

This paper presents a result of the mechanical noise and vibration analysis as well as the electrical characteristics analysis of the permanent magnet(PM) motor according to the driving method that is Brushless DC(BLDC) drive and Brushless AC(BLAC) drive. To do that, the characteristics of the PM motor, which have the same output power but different driving method, are investigated. At that time, the characteristics such as torque, torque ripple and flux density, and so on, are obtained by finite element analysis(FEA). Besides, noise and vibration are obtained by spectrum analysis. The magnetic noise is defined as noise generated from vibrations due to electromagnetic excitation force. In this paper, the electromagnetic excitation force is analyzed and design process of noise reduction is proposed. Finally, The validity of the analysis results is verified by test.
