Extremum Seeking Control Based Adaptive Compensation of Position Sensor Harmonics in PMSM Drives

摘要

Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSMs) have become one of the preferred forms of electromechanical energy converters, attributing to their high efficiency, torque density, and other unique advantages. However, given the need for proper rotor position measurement for commutation and field orientation, accurate rotor position sensing is of paramount importance. In sensing motor rotor position with a sensor, harmonic errors that arise in the sensing subsystem lead to undesirable torque ripple. Thus, this paper presents an adaptive, extremum seeking control based approach capable of mitigating position signal harmonics in PMSMs. The proposed approach is experimentally validated under varying torque, speed, and harmonic conditions. Its harmonic compensation performance is comparatively evaluated against the look-up table based method. Furthermore, the accuracy of the proposed approach is analyzed, highlighting its effectiveness.
