Adaptive Quasi-Proportional-Resonant Observer-Based Rotor Position Estimation for Sensorless PMSM Drives

摘要

It is important to improve the accuracy of rotor position estimation for the high-performance operation of position sensorless permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. To mitigate the position harmonic error caused by the nonideal factors in high-frequency signal injection based methods, an adaptive quasi-proportional-resonant rotor position observer (AQPRO) for sensorless PMSM drives is proposed in this article. The AQPRO can track the estimation error and generate the compensation value, which can realize online suppression for position error. By analyzing the stability and the influence of parameters of the proposed position observer on the suppression performance, a proportional-resonant gain self-tuning strategy is investigated to improve the suppression effect of the position harmonic error for different loads and speeds. The influence of self-tuning regulator parameters is modeled and analyzed in detail. The proposed method does not require offline detection and has a strong suppression ability for different harmonic error components. The effectiveness is verified by experiments on a 2.2-kW PMSM drive platform.
