Abstract

This paper investigates the performance of two novel half-switching frequency signal injection (HSFSI) demodulation algorithms for encoderless field-oriented control (FOC) of permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs) intended for electric vehicle (EV) propulsion. The proposed rotating and pulsating HSFSI demodulation algorithms do not require voltage measurements or approximations for estimating the rotor position angle. The proposed HSFSI algorithms have been quantitatively and qualitatively compared by MATLAB-SimPowerSystems simulations, as well as experimentally against the two equivalent classical high-frequency signal injection (HFSI) approaches. A 2.5 kW PMSM with radially inset rotor magnets has been used for experimentally evaluating and validating the performance analysis and the comparison of the four algorithms fully implemented to work in real-time on a TI C2000 digital signal processor (DSP). The results obtained with an 80 kW interior (I)-PMSM intended for EV propulsion also show that the proposed algorithms allow a better machine control performance in terms of a smaller torque ripple generation and a faster current control loop.
