Abstract<br />

Working with the subject of sensorless motor control requires an understanding of several topical<br />

areas; this report presents an understanding that was gained during this research work. The<br />

fundamentals of electric motors (particularly brushless motors) are developed from first<br />

principles and the basic models are discussed. The theory of sinusoidal synchronous motors is<br />

reviewed (phasor analysis of the single phase equivalent circuit). The concept of a complex space<br />

vector is introduced and developed using a working knowledge of the sinusoidal synchronous<br />

motor. This leads to the presentation of the space vector model of the permanent magnet<br />

synchronous motor, in both the stationary and rotor reference frames. An overview of the<br />

operation of three-phase voltage source inverters is given, followed by an explanation of space<br />

vector modulation and its relationship to regular sinusoidal pulse width modulation. Torque<br />

control of the permanent magnet synchronous machine is reviewed in several reference frames<br />

and then rotor-flux-field-oriented-control is explained. Finally, some schemes for sensorless<br />

operation are discussed.
