This study investigates the direct torque control strategy of permanent magnet synchronous motor with the space vector modulation, on account of large torque fluctuation and varied switching frequency of classic direct torque control strategy. The relationship among the terminal control voltages and the torque and stator flux of the permanent magnet synchronous motor is derived through the dynamic model of motor. Accordingly, the torque and the flux closed-loop feedback control structure are established, where the error signals are regulated by the proportional and integral controllers to generate output voltages. Furthermore, the parameters of the controllers are designed through explicitly analyzing the frequency domain models of the torque control loop and the flux control loop. The accurate calculation formula of control parameters, which has both explicit setting target and definite physical meaning, is obtained. Therefore, the design of torque and flux controller parameters becomes easy in the direct torque control with space vector modulation technology, and satisfactory flux and torque control can be acquired. Finally, simulation and experimental tests are demonstrated in support of the validity of the investigated scheme and the feasibility of the proposed controller parameter design.

This paper proposes a space vector modulation (SVM)-based common-mode (CM) currents reduction method of an H8 inverter for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. There are power quality issues in the PMSM drive systems, such as current distortions and CM electromagnetic interference (EMI) due to the fast-switching operation of the inverter. These issues are related to CM voltage (CMV) and CM current (CMC). Although several studies have been conducted to reduce the CMV and CMC, some CMV variations and CMCs are still generated in the real implementation. Unlike conventional methods, the proposed method selects the voltage vectors with similar CMV levels and arranges them considering the series-connected switch operation of the H8 inverter in a voltage vector modulation sequence. At a low modulation index (MI), the proposed method completely restricts the CMV variations into six times. At high MI, the proposed method synthesizes the reference voltage vector differently, depending on the position of the reference vector, to reduce both current distortions and CMCs. The validity of the proposed method is verified through simulations and experimental results.
