Abstract

In recent years, the application of sensorless AC motor drives is expanding in areas ranging from industrial applications to household electrical appliances. As is well known, the advantages of sensorless motor drives include lower cost, increased reliability, reduced hardware complexity, better noise immunity, and less maintenance requirements. With the development of modern industrial automation, more advanced sensorless control strategies are needed to meet the requirements of applications. For sensorless motor drives at low-and zero-speed operation, inverter nonlinearities and motor parameter variation have significant impact on the stability of control system. Meanwhile, high observer's bandwidth is required in high-speed region. This paper introduces the state of art of recent progress in sensorless AC motor drives. In addition, this paper presents the sensorless control strategies we investigated for practical industrial and household applications. Both advanced sensorless drives of induction motor (IM) and permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) are presented in this paper.
