Abstract
To extend the lifetime, improve the power density and reduce the system cost, the film capacitor is applied to replace the large-volume electrolytic capacitor in motor drives. As the dc-link voltage fluctuates periodically, the rotor position estimation error and operation stability are necessary to be concerned in the position sensorless control methods. A cross-decoupling complex filtering-based position estimation method is investigated for the reduced capacitance interior permanent magnet synchronous motor drive system. Harmonic components of the extended back electromotive force (EEMF) caused by the dc-link voltage fluctuation are analyzed to evaluate the additional rotor position error. A cross-decoupling complex filter realized by the multiple first-order complex filters with different center frequencies is designed to improve the position estimation precision. Harmonics of the EEMF are suppressed and the position error can be eliminated. The estimation precision and operation ability are improved. Experimental results are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.
