EXTENDED SPEED RANGE OPERATION OF PERMANENT MAGNET BRUSHLESS MACHINES USING OPTIMAL PHASE ANGLE CONTROL IN THE VOLTAGE MODE OPERATION

摘要

A novel method is proposed for controlling the torque of a PM brushless motor with sinusoidal back-emfs without current sensors by computing the required input phase voltages with measured rotor position and speed and known machine parameters. These voltages are fed to the machine at an angle computed in terms of input parameters and the phase voltage with respect to their back-emfs so that phase currents are aligned with their back-emfs to exactly mimic the performance of the current mode controller.
