Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A sensorless control method and system for a motor are provided. The includes a back EMF observer that is configured to estimate a back EMF of the motor and an angle error calculator that is configured to calculate an electrical angle error considering iron loss of the motor based on the back EMF estimated by the back EMF observer. An angle error compensator is configured to compensate the electrical angle error calculated by the angle error calculator. An electrical angle for compensating the calculated electrical angle error is obtained through simulation or experiment for the motor. In addition, a PLL controller is configured to receive the compensated electrical angle to estimate an actual angle by reducing the electrical angle error due to the iron loss, and to operate the motor based on the estimated actual angle.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A sensorless control system controlling a motor having a permanent magnet motor, comprising: a back EMF observer configured to estimate a back EMF of the motor; an angle error calculator configured to calculate an electrical angle error considering iron loss of the motor based on the back EMF estimated by the back EMF observer; an angle error compensator configured to compensate the electrical angle error calculated by the angle error calculator, wherein an electrical angle for compensating the calculated electrical angle error is obtained through simulation or experiment for the motor; and a PLL controller configured to receive the compensated electrical angle to estimate an actual angle by reducing the electrical angle error due to the iron loss, and operate the motor based on the estimated actual angle. 2. The sensorless control system of claim 1 , wherein voltages (ν γ , ν δ ) of the motor associated with the electrical angle error (ζ) considering the iron loss are calculated by the following equation: [ v γ v δ ] = [ R s + pL d ⁢ - ω e ⁢ L q ⁢ ω e ⁢ L q R s + pL d ] ⁡ [ i γ i δ ] + [ - A 2 + B 2 ⁢ sin ⁡ ( Δθ + ζ ) A 2 + B 2 ⁢ cos ⁡ ( Δθ + ζ ) ] ζ = tan - 1 ⁡ ( B A ) A = E ex + ω e 2 ⁢ L d ⁢
