Abstract: A controller of a rotating electric machine performs a control on a control amount of the rotating electric machine by (a) calculating a voltage instruction value for controlling the control amount based on voltage detection values of the shunt resistors when shunt resistors in at least two phases have an electric current flowing therein, and (b) performing a drive control of each of switches in an inverter based on the calculated voltage instruction value. The controller determines whether a phase current flowing in a winding is detectable in at least two of three phases based on voltage values of the shunt resistors, and, when determining that the phase current is not detectable in the at least two phases, the controller performs the drive control based on a past current value or a past voltage value in a two-phase rotating coordinate system of the rotating electric machine.

Abstract: A control system aims at converting, via a switching circuit, a direct current voltage into an alternating current voltage to be applied to multiphase windings of a multiphase rotary machine to thereby control rotation of the multiphase rotary machine. In the control system, a command voltage determiner determines a command voltage value for an alternating current voltage to be applied to the multiphase windings based on a zero crossing of a line-to-line current and a zero crossing of the amount of change in the line-to-line current. A driving unit drives the switching circuit on and off based on the determined command voltage value to thereby modulate the direct current voltage to the alternating current voltage to be applied to the multiphase windings.

Abstract: In a method of estimating a magnetic pole position in a synchronous motor, an alternating current voltage having ?- and ?-axes components in an ?? coordinates system representing a two-phase alternating current coordinates system is applied to the motor, and ?- and ?-axes components of an alternating current are detected from the motor. A wave height of the alternating current changing with time is approximated to a wave height not depending on time, so that a differentiated value of the wave height with respect to time is substantially set at zero. An induced voltage of the motor is calculated from the components of the alternating current voltage and the components of the alternating current. The magnetic pole position is estimated from the induced voltage.
