Abstract

This article presents a comprehensive investigation into the sideband vibro-acoustics with continuous and discontinuous pulsewidth modulation (PWM) strategies in permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The primary motivation for the evaluation reveals the frequency distributions of the sideband components and the magnitudes suppression with the space-vector PWM (SVPWM) and the discontinuous PWM (DPWM). The principle and implementation of the conventional SVPWM and six basic DPWM modes are firstly presented. The sideband harmonic components are provided by the analytical derivations, in which the frequency distributions are established by coupling the temporal features between the current harmonics and radial electromagnetic force. To evaluate and compare the sideband current harmonics and vibro-acoustic responses among the PWM schemes, the experimental tests are presented in a study case of 12/10 PMSM. Significant deterioration is observed in each of the basic DPWMs compared with that in SVPWM. Developed with periodic dithering modulation, notable sideband harmonics suppression and vibro-acoustic improvements in DPWM schemes are observed. This work is expected to provide a guidance for a hybrid modulation strategy in electric vehicles (EVs).
