English abstract:
The increasing use of permanent magnet synchronous (PM) machines compared to DC motors in electrical drive applications like the automotive field offers several advantages like simple construction without commutator, efficiency, overload capability and small geometric dimensions. However, usually PM drives need mechanical sensors (tachometers, position encoders) for rotor-oriented control. These sensors reduce robustness and increase costs of the drive considerably. The main objective of this paper is to present the 'INFORM' method based on real-time inductance measurements for sensorless control of new automotive PM drives.
