Low-Speed Rotating Restart and Speed Recording for Free-Running Sensorless IPMSM Based on Ultrahigh Frequency Sinusoidal Wave Injection

摘要

In the low-speed operating range of sensorless interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM), this article proposed an ultrahigh frequency (UHF) sinusoidal voltage injection method supplied by the control power supply, and the corresponding signal injection and detection system topology are designed. The proposed method replaces the traditional high-frequency injection method to continuously detect the rotor position by injecting UHF sinusoidal detection voltage into the three-phase motor windings during the main power supply (MPS) down, thereby avoiding the loss of rotor polarity information. When the MPS is restored, there is no need to wait for the convergence process of the position observer and the rotor polarity determination process. The sensorless IPMSM can immediately resume normal operation at low speed. For applications with low load inertia, the proposed method improves the rapidness of rotating restart, realizes zero-wait operation after MPS is restored, and reduces the speed drop during the power down. For electric vehicle (EV) applications, the proposed method meets the requirements of EVs event data recorder to continuously record the motor speed when the MPS is off . The experimental results verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis and the feasibility of the proposed method.
