  • Publication number: 20150100264
    Abstract: The present invention relates to resolver calibration for permanent magnet synchronous motor. According to embodiments of the present invention, the high frequency rotating voltage vector is generated and injected into a resolver associated with a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Due to the saliency effect, when a reference point is detected in a phase current, the rotor position of the PMSM is known. At this point, by acquiring the resolver position, the resolver offset may be accurately determined for calibration. According to embodiments of the present invention, the resolver offset may be accurately determined and calibrated without increasing device dimension and cost. Respective methods, apparatuses, systems, and computer products are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 8216518
    Abstract: A plasmon resonance sensing system includes a light source, a waveguide component and a photon detector. The light source provides an incident light. The waveguide component has a tubular internal wall and a noble metal nanoparticle layer disposed on the tubular internal wall and contacted with a desired testing matter. The waveguide component is made of a light transmitting material for guiding the incident light to have an interaction with the noble metal nanoparticle layer. The photon detector detects an emergent light exiting the waveguide component after the interaction of the noble metal nanoparticle layer with the desired testing matter. The system further includes a first optical fiber installed between the light source and the waveguide component for transmitting the incident light to the waveguide component, a lens and a second optical fiber. The lens collects and transmits the emergent light to the photon detector through the second optical fiber.
