Sensorless control methods are generally used in motor control for home-appliances because of the material cost and manufactureing standard restrictions. The current model-based control algorithm is mainly used for PMSM sensorless control in the home-appliance industry. In this control method, the rotor position is estimated by using the d-axis and q-axis current errors between the real system and a motor model of the position estimator. As a result, the accuracy of the motor model parameters are critical in this control method. A mismatch of the PMSM parameters affects the speed and torque in low speed, steadystate responses. Rotor position errors are mainly caused by a mismatch of the stator resistance. In this paper, a stator resistance compensation algorithm is proposed to improve sensorless control performance. This algorithm is easy to implement and does not require a modification of the motor model or any special interruptions of the controller. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified through experimental results.

Recently the interest in permanent magnet alternating motor using for electric compressor become great. Especially the research on Interior Permanent Magnet Motor has been doing actively for its advantages in the energy density and the efficiency. In order to control the output of motor to the desired value, the current control or speed control of motor are required. The accurate detection of rotor position and speed information are necessary for the control of motor. In general, the encoder, hall sensor, and resolver are used to obtain the information of motor position and speed and the speed detection algorithm, M/T method, is applied. However, the M/T method causes the error depending on rotor speed. Therefore, this M/T speed detection method is not perfect. In this paper, it is proposed that the PI control with a 1st transfer function and the integration element between velocity and position are composed in series and this feeds back to the reference value of position angle. The proposed algorithm is a function of the integral elements 2nd term, speed element, is used as an output. Thus, it is possible to detect the correct speed by configuring like the mechanical structure similarly. The proposed algorithm is verified by using PSIM DLL and is applied to the BLAC motor drive. And also it is confirmed that this system estimates the accurate speed regardless of rotor speed changes. As a example, the experimental results and simulations shows that the proposed method is very effective.

A new control method for the precision robust position control of a brushless DC(BLDC) motor for direct drive m motor(BLDDM) system using the asymptotically stable adaptive load torque observer is presented. A precision position c control is obtained for the BLDD motor system appro성mately linearized using the fieldlongrightarroworientation method. Many of t these motor systems have BLDD motor to obtain no backlashes. On the other hand, it has disadvantages such as the h high cost and more complex controller caused by the nonlinear characteristics. And the load torque disturbance is d directly affected to a motor shaft. To r밍ect this problem, stability analysis is calTied out using Lyapunov stability t theorem. Using this results, the stability is proved and load disturbance detected by the asymptotically stable adaptive observer is compensated by feedforwarding the equivalent CUlTent having the fast response.

Recently, AC servo motor has expanded its application areas the to the development of the power semi-conductor and control technology. But it has large torque ripple for its nonlinear characteristics and phase commutaion. In this paper, we proposed the switching angle overlapping method, and current control using tracking method in order to generate the constant torque of AC servo motor that has the trapezoidal back e.m.f. It is compared the these types of control method with the characteristics through simulation. We show that these methods lead the torque ripple to reduce and makes the position and speed characterlistics improved effectively. Also we prove that current control using tracking method is the best way to reduce torque ripple among the these types of control method.

The permanent magnet synchronous motor windings are energized by sinusoidal excitation current. The frequency of the winding excitation current is synchronous with motor movement and the phase is a function of the motor position with respect to the stator. The total operational speed range of the system is substantially incresed by controlling the phase of the excitation currents at a function of the desired speed. This becomes the torque angle between stator rotating field and motor position. In this paper, torque angle control method is described for surface permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM). The control circuit for realizing control method is investigated and the system test is carried out.

The equivalent transformation of a brushless DC motor into an separately exited DC motor has been possible with the vector control technique. Vector control is an effective technique for controlling variable speed drives of brushless DC motors. Conventional vector controllers, however, suffer from electrical machine parameter variations because these controllers depend on the parameters. This paper presents the vector control of brushless DC motor using a neural network. In the proposed method, a neural network is employed as on-line estimator of the nonlinear dynamic equations of brushless DC motor. The neural network based vector controller has the advantage of robustness against machine parameter variations as compared with conventional vector controller The simulation results using Matlab/Simulink verify the useful of the proposed method.

This paper presents an advanced torque ripple minimization method of a switched reluctance motor (SRM) using torque sharing function (TSF). Generally, TSF is applied into the torque control. However, the conventional TSF cannot follow the expected torque well because of the nonlinear characteristics of the SRM. Moreover, the tail current that is generated at a high speed motor drive makes unexpected torque ripples. The proposed method combined TSF with fuzzy logic control (FLC). The advantage of this method is that the torque can be controlled unity at any conditions. In addition, the controller can track the torque under the condition of the wrong TSF. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by the simulations and experiments.

The unscented Kalman filter features a direct transforming process involving unscented transformation for removing the linearization process error that may occur in the extended Kalman filter. This paper proposes a reduced-order unscented Kalman filter for the sensorless control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor. The proposed method can reduce the computational load without degrading the accuracy compared to the conventional Kalman filters. Moreover, the proposed method can directly estimate the electrical rotor position and speed without a back-electromotive force. The proposed Kalman filter for the sensorless control of a permanent magnet synchronous motor is verified through the simulation and experimentation. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated over a wide range of operations, such as forward and reverse rotations in low and high speeds including the detuning parameters.

This paper presents the design of a proportional-integral (PI)-proportional-derivative (PD) position controller without using a speed controller in motor drive systems. Unlike the existing PI-PD position controller design methods, the proposed controller is designed by reducing the entire position control system to a second-order transfer function. Thus, the gain values for the PI-PD position controller can be determined easily by a given bandwidth of the position controller. The PI-PD position controller designed by the proposed method is adopted for position control in an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system to confirm the validity of the proposed design method. The effectiveness of the proposed design method is confirmed through experiments.

This paper presents a novel current control method to reduce the current ripple due to commutation in brushless DC motor fed with unipolar PWM voltage source inverter. The proposed current control method can reduce the current ripple due to commutation in high speed range where the DC link voltage of the inverter is less than four times of the phase back-emf. The effectiveness of the proposed current control method is verified with digital simulations and experiments on the 250W brushless DC motor drive systems.
