Abstract
Sensorless drives of interior permanent magnet synchronous motors (IPMSMs) find a broad range of applications due to their inherent benefits. In practical electrified propulsions, the IPMSM drives are usually working in highly utilized conditions where the performance and stability could deteriorate. Without considerable compensation, this vulnerability causes the existing phase-locked loops (PLLs), estimators, or observers to lose the synchronization with the rotor position. To achieve better performance and reduce the estimation error, in a PLL-type framework for sensorless control, a position error observer (PEO) utilizing the current errors as correction terms plays the role of the phase detector. A reduced-order extended state observer (ESO) is presented to form the loop filter with a switched nonsmooth feedback structure. The outstanding property of the PEO and nonsmooth ESO is verified through experiments. The results demonstrate its strong adaptability for model uncertainties and disturbances along with the quick convergence speed and minimal oscillation.
