  • Patent number: 12549119
    Abstract: A direct locating method for calculating a position of a permanent magnet synchronous motor is provided. The direct locating method performed by a processor includes: three-phase stator currents of the permanent magnet synchronous motor are converted by coordinate to obtain the stator currents in the ?? two-phase stationary coordinate system, and the initial position region is determined. The stator currents in dq two-phase synchronous rotating coordinate system are obtained by coordinate conversion. The stator current cost model is established. Then the d-axis stator current is inputted into the cost model and the position is outputted, and the final estimated position is determined to realize the direct locating of the permanent magnet synchronous motor's position.

  • Patent number: 11750127
    Abstract: The invention discloses a control method for balancing scaling errors of multiple current sensors for PMSM. An impedance network is set between a direct current power supply and a three-phase inverter connected to a PMSM to avoid positive and negative poles of the direct current power supply being short-circuited under actions of shoot-through vectors. Under actions of two shoot-through vectors in a PWM cycle, three-phase current sensors are used to respectively sample the sum of currents in each branch of three-phase output branches of the three-phase inverter and a branch of the same bridge arm of the three-phase inverter, according to the sampled currents, operating to obtain the relationship between the scaling error coefficients of the three-phase current sensors. Then, correction coefficients are calculated. The correction of the scaling errors of the current sensors is implemented using correction coefficient feedback control.
