SENSORLESS CONTROL OF SWITCHED RELUCTANCE MACHINES FOR LOW SPEEDS AND STANDSTILL

摘要

A method for determining rotor position of a switched reluctance (SR) machine having a rotor and a stator is provided. The method may include injecting a test pulse into one or more idle phases of the SR machine, determining a decoupled flux value based at least partially on a total flux value corresponding to the test pulse and a mutual flux value, and determining the rotor position based at least partially on the decoupled flux value.
