Aiming at the torque ripple problem of direct torque control that is based on space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM-DTC) caused by the spatial harmonics and magnetic saturation characteristics of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), a feedforward controller based on an analytical model of PMSM was designed. An analytical motor model taking the spatial harmonics and magnetic saturation characteristics of PMSM into account by reconstructing the numerical solution of magnetic co-energy (MCE) from finite element analysis (FEA) was proposed. Based on that, the optimal stator flux linkage that minimizes the torque ripple is calculated and then a feedforward controller is designed and added to the SVPWM-DTC framework. Simulations and experiments are carried out and the results show that the proposed feedforward controller can effectively reduce the torque ripple of SVPWM-DTC.
