This paper proposes the predictive controller design for a sensorless interior permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system. The predictive controllers include a current-loop predictive controller and a speed-loop predictive controller. By using the proposed control algorithms, the closed-loop sensorless interior permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system can achieve fast transient responses, satisfactory load disturbance responses, and good tracking responses. A digital signal processor, TMS 320F2812, is used to perform the rotor position estimating algorithm and the predictive control algorithms. As a result, the hardware is very simple. Experimental results can validate the theoretical analysis and show the predictive controllers perform better than the PI controllers.
