Title:The Flux-Based Sensorless Field-Oriented Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors without Integrational DriftAuthor(s):Tomislav Striníc, Siegfried Silber, Wolfgang GruberAbstract:The magnitude of the rotor magnetic flux linkage and its spatial orientation within a permanent magnet synchronous motor directly define the angular position of the rotor and are thus used in many sensorless applications as the governing variables. The rotor magnetic flux linkage in the stator reference frame is represented by two orthogonal sinusoids whose amplitudes and phases are determined by the integration of the orthogonal components of the corresponding voltage, which, due to DC offsets and initial conditions at transient states, result in an integrational drift. This paper proposes a solution to the problem of such integrational drift in the form of a compensation based only on orthogonal properties of waveforms in the stator reference frame. That makes it completely independent of electrical parameters of the motor. As a result, the proposed compensation of the integrational drift does not require any optimization by the user and it is functional from a standstill. The effectiveness of the proposed compensation is demonstrated analytically, by a simulation, and an experiment on a real motor by a simple observer for the sensorless field-oriented control based on the voltage model in the stator reference frame.Journal:ActuatorsISSN:2076-0825Page Reference:22 page(s)Publishing:7/2018Volume:7Number:3
