Zero Voltage Vector Sampling Method for PMSM Three-Phase Current Reconstruction Using Single Current Sensor

摘要

For the purpose of reducing cost and volume, techniques of reconstructing three-phase currents through a single current sensor have been reported for permanent magnet synchronous motor vector control system. In existing studies, the reconstruction precision is largely affected by the dead zones in space vector PWM plane, which requires additional efforts to compensate the dead zones either by modifying pulse width modulation (PWM) modulation strategy or by phase-shifting of PWM signal. In this paper, a novel zero voltage vector sampling method (ZVVSM) is proposed, which can move the current reconstruction dead zones in low modulation region and sector boundary regions toward the outline of the space vector hexagon without modifying PWM signal. By arranging the single current sensor at a novel position, the proposed method is able to sample current in two zero voltage vectors (ZVV). ZVVSM avoids the complicated algorithms as well as the increase of the switching times, so that it is beneficial to the PMSM drive performance. The proposed method is validated by both simulation and experiments.
