Abstract

In this paper, a novel sensorless control strategy with the injection of a high-frequency pulsating carrier signal into a stationary reference frame is proposed. Differing from the two most commonly used conventional high-frequency carrier signal injection methods, i.e., the injection of a rotating carrier voltage into a stationary reference frame and the injection of a pulsating carrier voltage into an estimated synchronous reference frame, the new proposed strategy injects a pulsating high-frequency carrier voltage into a stationary reference frame, which is as stable as the rotating carrier signal injection method. Then, the rotor position information can be retrieved from the carrier current response that is amplitude-modulated by the machine saliency, which is as simple as the pulsating carrier signal injection method. The signal demodulation process, the compensation of the cross-saturation effect, and magnetic polarity detection are also discussed and analyzed in detail. The experimental results on an interior permanent-magnet synchronous machine demonstrate that the new proposed strategy has a robust magnetic polarity detection and that it can achieve an accurate rotor position estimation with good steady-state performance and dynamic performance.
