Abstract

A method and a system for compensating an offset of a resolver, may include sampling an output signal of the resolver at a predetermined sampling frequency, comparing magnitudes of the sampled output signals of the resolver, when a difference in magnitude between the sampled output signals of the resolver is greater than a predetermined reference value, controlling the motor by a random pulse width modulation (RPWM) scheme in which switching frequencies of the switching elements in the inverter are arbitrarily changed, and compensating an offset of the resolver coupled to the motor while controlling the motor with the RPWM scheme.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for compensating an offset of a resolver, the method comprising:
sampling, by a controller, an output signal of the resolver at a predetermined sampling frequency;
comparing, by the controller, magnitudes of sampled output signals of the resolver in the step of sampling;
when a difference between the magnitudes of the sampled output signals of the resolver is greater than a predetermined reference value, controlling, by the controller, a motor with a random pulse width modulation (RPWM) scheme for arbitrarily changing a switching frequency of a switching element in an inverter connected to the motor; and
compensating the offset of the resolver coupled to the motor while controlling the motor with the RPWM scheme,
wherein the comparing includes determining a difference between magnitudes of two consecutive sampled output signals of the resolver among magnitudes of sequentially sampled output signals of the resolver at the predetermined sampling frequency.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the sampling includes sampling the output signal of the resolver using the predetermined sampling frequency which is determined to sample the output signal of the resolver at a peak of the output signal of the resolver.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the predetermined reference value is determined as a maximum value with which a difference between peak values of adjacent output signals of the resolver has in a state in which distortion is not present in an output of the resolver.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the compensating of the offset of the resolver includes, when a d-axis voltage of the motor becomes zero, determining an angle determined by the output signal of the resolver as the offset of the resolver coupled to the motor while controlling the motor to put a d-axis current and a q-axis current of the motor into zero.

5. A system for compensating an offset of a resolver, which provides an output signal for determining a rotation angle of a motor driven by receiving alternating-current (AC) power converted by switching of a switching element in an inverter connected to the motor, the system comprising:
a sampler configured to sample an output signal of the resolver at a predetermined sampling frequency;
a modulation scheme determiner configured to compare magnitudes of sampled output signals of the resolver by the sampler, and when a difference between the magnitudes of the sampled output signals of the resolver is greater than a predetermined reference value, control the motor with a random pulse width modulation (RPWM) scheme for arbitrarily changing a switching frequency of the switching element in the inverter; and
a resolver offset calculator configured to determine the offset of the resolver on a basis of the output signal of the resolver while driving the motor with a modulation scheme determined by the modulation scheme determiner,
wherein the modulation scheme determiner determines a difference between magnitudes of two consecutive sampled output signals of the resolver among magnitudes of sequentially sampled output signals of the resolver at the predetermined sampling frequency.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the sampler samples the output signal of the resolver using the predetermined sampling frequency which is determined to sample the output signal of the resolver at a peak of the output signal of the resolver.

7. The system of claim 5 , wherein the predetermined reference value is determined as a maximum value with which a difference between peak values of adjacent output signals of the resolver has in a state in which distortion is not present in an output of the resolver.

8. The system of claim 5 , wherein, when a d-axis voltage of the motor becomes zero, the resolver offset calculator determines an angle determined by the output signal of the resolver as the offset of the resolver coupled to the motor while controlling the motor to put a d-axis current and a q-axis current of the motor into zero.
