Sensorless control of dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor based on speed feedback and frequency-variable tracking.

The dual three-phase Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) control system is characterized by its high reliability, slight torque fluctuation and low harmonic content. It is very suitable for systems requiring high power output and high reliability, for instance, electric vehicles, aerospace and military equipment. In this paper, a full speed domain sensorless control technology for dual three-phase PMSM is proposed which solves the limitations of other sensorless controls, improves system accuracy and stability, and has high practicality in fields such as new energy vehicles. The mathematical model of this motor in a static coordinate system is established, and the sine and cosine signals along with the velocity and angle information are obtained by using the flux linkage observer. Moreover, the estimated angle error parameter is introduced into the flux linkage observer; as a result, the estimation accuracy is improved by the estimated speed feedback, and the current frequency is tracked by the stator current Frequency-Variable Tracker (FVT) to reduce the current error. Meanwhile, to make the observer's estimation more accurate and to improve its ability to resist disturbance, a rotor disturbance is added to act as a disturbance variable. Through the mechanical motion equation of the motor, a fourth-order Extended State Observer (ESO) is built to calculate the rotor position and speed. Finally, the technology accuracy is verified using simulation and experimental results. The findings prove that the sensorless detection technology, with speed feedback introduce in this paper, has good reliability and high precision for dual three-phase PMSM under dynamic and static conditions.

Fault-tolerant control strategy of six-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor based on deadbeat current prediction.

The fault-tolerant control after phase loss is crucial in the studies of the six-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), and the one phase loss is the most frequent phase loss fault. To improve the system instability caused by nonlinear and time-varying perturbations of inductance parameters in a double-Y phase shifted 30° six-phase PMSM, an improved deadbeat predictive current fault-tolerant control (DPC-FTC) method is proposed in this study. The transformation matrix after single-phase open-phase is first reduced and reconstructed, and the reduced-dimensional voltage equation is derived. Based on this equation, the deadbeat current predictive control is then used to predict the expected voltage using the current feedback value and the reference value, so as to shorten the response time and improve the overall control effect. The voltage equation after parameter perturbation is rewritten, and the current discrete transfer function under constant expected voltage before and after parameter perturbation is calculated. Afterwards, to further improve the low stability of fault-tolerant control after phase loss, which is caused by the inductance parameter perturbation of the control system, the weight coefficient is introduced in order to enhance the deadbeat predictive current control so that it splits and optimizes the direct-quadrature axis current. The stability of the system is then analyzed. By changing the weight coefficient, the fault-tolerant control system has a wider stable working range. Finally, the simulation model and experimental platform are completed. The results show that the improved DPC-FTC method improves the permissible inductor parameter uptake range by a factor of 1/ß, reduces the current static difference by 32.05% and 46.02% when the inductor parameter is mismatched by a factor of 2, reduces the current oscillation and effectively reduces the sensitivity of system stability to inductor parameter uptake.
