This paper proposes a novel state estimation based permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) control method for electric vehicle (EV) driving. Firstly, a state feedback decoupling control with disturbance feed-forward (SFDCDF) is described. As motor angular speed and rotary angle are key information for the proposed control algorithm and park’s transformation, a novel observer based angular speed estimator (OBASE) is proposed for angular speed estimation. Moreover, an extended Kalman filter (EKF) based rotary angle estimator (EBRAE) is used for rotary angle estimation with information of the estimated angular speed. The convergence of angular speed estimation is proven through Lyapunov stability theory. Simulation results also indicate that the proposed algorithms can control PMSM torque, current, and angular speed to accurately follow reference values without severe fluctuation. In addition, in order to provide SFDCDF with load torque information, the OBASE is slightly modified to work as a vehicle load estimator (VLE) so PMSM responds more rapidly and speed fluctuates more slightly when the load suddenly changes. Then a series of hardware in the loop (HIL) simulations are carried out. Results indicate that the proposed control strategy can precisely estimate PMSM’s angular speed and rotor angle. Also, it can improve the driving performance of PMSM used on EVs.

Two problems can cause control performance degradation on permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) systems, namely, fluctuation of PMSM parameters and the time delay between current sampling and command value update. In order to reduce the influence of these problems, a new current-predictive control strategy is proposed in this article for medium- and high-speed PMSM. This strategy is based on the discrete mathematical model of PMSM. This new control strategy consists of two main steps: First, an integrator is applied to calculate current compensation value; second, the predictive current value is obtained through deadbeat-current predictive method. The stability of predictive control system is also proved in the article. With this deadbeat-current predictive control scheme, the real current can reach the desired value within one control-step. Based on this new current control method, Luenberger observer and phase-locked loop position tracker is applied in this article. Experimental results for 0.4 kW surface-mounted PMSM confirm the validity and excellent performance for parameters fluctuation of new current predictive control.

Abstract Permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) has the advantages of high efficiency, high power density and high reliability. It has been widely used in electric vehicles, rail transit, industrial transmission and other fields. Compared with the traditional PMSM control strategy, the Indirect stator-quantities control (ISC) of low torque ripple induction motor has high dynamic response performance in the whole speed range, with high stability and strong security. However, due to the inherent characteristics of PMSM, there are still some difficulties in applying ISC strategy, such as solving the load angle corresponding to the current torque, realizing the maximum torque per ampere (MTPA) control and flux weakening control method in the stator field oriented control algorithm of PMSM. In this paper, theoretical analysis and discussion are carried out for the above difficulties, and an indirect stator vector control (ISC) method for PMSM is proposed. Finally, combined with the electric drive application platform of electric vehicle, the simulation and experimental results verify that the proposed ISC control strategy of PMSM also has good dynamic and steady-state performance in the whole speed range.

A nonlinear control method is considered for stabilizing all attitudes and positions (x, y or z) of an underactuated X4-AUV with four thrusters and six degrees-of-freedom (DOFs), in which the positions are stabilized according to the Lyapunov stability theory and angles are stabilized using backstepping control method. A dynamical model is first derived, and then a sequential nonlinear control strategy is implemented for the X4-AUV, composed of translational and rotational subsystems. A controller for the translational subsystem stabilizes one position out of x-, y-, and z-coordinates, whereas controllers for the rotational subsystems generate the desired roll, pitch and yaw angles. Thus, the rotational controllers stabilize all the attitudes of the X4-AUV at a desired (x-, y- or z-) position of the vehicle. Some numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed controllers.

In the rotor field oriented vector control system, the use of permanent magnet synchronous motor voltage equations and flux equations derived PMSM position and speed estimation method has its unique advantages, The advantage of this approach is to calculate a simple, fast dynamic response, and easy to implement. However, when permanent magnet synchronous motor running at low speed, back EMF would be very small, which can not guarantee the accuracy of estimates. In addition, the position and speed estimation parameters of permanent magnet synchronous motor is largely in dependence on the running status of permanent magnet synchronous motor ,and vulnerable to temperature and magnetic saturation phenomena.All of these elements will lead to error increase. In order to solve the problem of inaccuracy in parameters estimation of motors at low speed, PI controller is introduced to obtain the rotor speed information, and then make up for deficiencies in the estimation algorithm. At the same time, this method can be applied to achieve smooth switching of high speed switching of the motor.

Permanent magnet synchronous motor always suffers from air gap field distortion and inverter nonlinearity, which lead to the harmonic components in motor currents. A resonant controller is a remarkable control method to eliminate periodic disturbance, whereas the conventional resonant controller is limited by narrow bandwidth and phase lag. This article presents a novel resonant controller with a precise phase compensation method for a permanent magnet synchronous motor to suppress the current harmonics. Based on the analysis of the current harmonic characteristics, the proposed resonant controller for rejecting a set of selected current harmonic components is plugged in the current loop, and it is parallel to the traditional proportional–integral controller. Furthermore, the stability analysis of the proposed resonant controller is investigated, and the parameters are tuned to get a satisfactory performance. Compared with the conventional resonant controller, the proposed resonant controller can achieve good steady-state performance, dynamic performance, and frequency adaptivity performance, simultaneously. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed suppression scheme.

The six-phase motor control system has low torque ripple, low harmonic content, and high reliability; therefore, it is suitable for electric vehicles, aerospace, and other applications requiring high power output and reliability. This study presents a superior sensorless control system for a six-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). The mathematical model of a PMSM in a stationary coordinate system is presented. The information of motor speed and position is obtained by using a sliding mode observer (SMO). As torque ripple and harmonic components affect the back electromotive force (BEMF) estimated value through the traditional SMO, the function of the frequency-variable tracker of the stator current (FVTSC) is used instead of the traditional switching function. By improving the SMO method, the BEMF is estimated independently, and its precision is maintained under startup or variable-speed states. In order to improve the estimation accuracy and resistance ability of the observer, the rotor position error was taken as the disturbance term, and the third-order extended state observer (ESO) was constructed to estimate the rotational speed and rotor position through the motor mechanical motion equation. Finally, the effectiveness of the method is verified by simulation and experiment results. The proposed control strategy can effectively improve the dynamic and static performance of PMSM.
