Simulink Modeling and Design of an Efficient Hardware-Constrained FPGA-Based PMSM Speed Controller

摘要

The aim of this paper is to present a holistic approach to modeling and field programmable gate array (FPGA) implementation of a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) speed controller. The whole system is modeled in the Matlab Simulink environment. The controller is then translated to discrete time and remodeled using System Generator blocks, directly synthesizable into FPGA hardware. The algorithm is further refined and factorized to take into account hardware constraints, so as to fit into a low-cost FPGA, without significantly increasing the execution time. The resulting controller is then integrated together with sensor interfaces and analysis tools and implemented into an FPGA device. Experimental results validate the controller and verify the design.
