Sensorless Control of Linear Vernier Permanent-Magnet Motor Based on Improved Mover Flux Observer
2019
Linear vernier permanent-magnet (LVPM) motors have a bright future in long stroke applications, because of their merits of high efficiency, high force capability, and low cost. However, the position sensor for the LVPM motor costs huge. In this article, a sensorless control based on an improved mover flux observer is proposed. The proposed mover flux observer combines a disturbance observer and a feedback controller. It can be easily implemented, which results in low computation burden. Due to simple tuning parameters of this observer, the mover flux observer can have strong robustness to the dc bias and the initialization errors of integrators that are main weakness of flux model. This proposed observer also does not introduce error in either the estimated mover flux amplitude or phase. Then, a phase-locked loop is used to detected position information from the mover fluxes. Finally, the LVPM motor operates by using the estimated position and speed signals. Simulation and experimental results of the LVPM motor demonstrate the accuracy and dynamic performance of the proposed sensorless operation.
