  • Patent number: 6914404
    Abstract: A motor controller, comprising a first simulation control unit (8) and a second simulation control unit (9) as a feed forward control means for inputting a command to an actual control unit (10) performing a feedback control, wherein the control parameter of the first simulation control unit (8) is set so that the high-speed property of a control response is increased, and the control parameter of the second simulation control unit (9) is set so that the stability of the control response is increased, whereby an entire feed forward control means can be designed so as to meet the requirements for the high-speed property and high stability of the control response.

  • Patent number: 6873132
    Abstract: Host control section 8 is provided with simulation model 8c for simulating the signal transmission characteristics of an electric motor control device. Host control section 8 performs an operation on the actual position command signal ?ref that is supplied from the host device in accordance with the simulation model, calculates the speed and position of the electric motor corresponding to the actual position command signal ?ref, and applies this speed and position as first simulation speed signal ?F and first simulation position signal ?F, respectively, with each second control sampling period t2. Host control section 8 further generates a linear combination of ?ref??F and ?F using, as combination coefficients, constants determined by parameters that characterize the simulation model, and supplies this linear combination as feedforward torque signal TFF for each second control sampling period t2.
