In vehicle electrical systems with limited battery power, the output torque and speed of high-speed brushless DC (BLDC) motors can decrease due to unstable and reduced supply voltage or manufacturing errors in the motor back electromotive force (EMF). This paper presents a method that can guarantee the output performance of an inverter through a control algorithm without a separate power supply system and DC-link voltage increase. The proposed control algorithm can increase the output torque and speed of a high-speed BLDC motor by using appropriate selection and change of the inverter’s pulse width modulation (PWM) control method. In this paper, the operation and electrical characteristics of various PWM methods of BLDC motors are analyzed, and the optimal PWM method for improving the control performance of high-speed BLDC motors is presented. In addition, the relationship between the switching frequency, dead time, and voltage utilization was mathematically analyzed. Based on the results of this analysis, the proposed control algorithm automatically changes the PWM switching mode at the point where the output torque and speed need to be extended. The effectiveness and feasibility of the control method proposed in this paper is verified through the experimental results on the designed and manufactured high-speed BLDC motor system for vehicles.

This article represents the torque ripple performance of modular multilevel converter (MMC) fed brushless dc (BLDC) motor using different current control technique. For reducing the ripple current in BLDC motor, a phase-modulated model predictive control (PMMPC) technique has been proposed. The stator ripple current is almost negligible using PMMPC. This PMMPC current control method is a significant minimization of torque ripple in BLDC motor. A comparative torque ripple behaviour of MMC fed BLDC motor has been done using phase-modulated model predictive control, model predictive control (MPC) and proportional integral (PI) control at different switching frequency. It has been observed that a PMMPC current control technique is more efficient as compared to the MPC as well as PI current control technique. It has also been observed that the torque ripple performance is improved while using PMMPC as compared to the MPC and PI controller. Simulation results have been verified with the help of experimental result and these results are obtained in good agreement to the simulated results.

Brushless DC motors have the large applications because of its easiest control system and the highest efficiency. Industrial BLDC motor drives suffers from the ripples in the torque, due to which motor has more noise, vibrations and less efficient. To reduce the ripple, the Space Vector PWM (SVPWM) and Sinusoidal PWM are implemented in BLDC drive. The Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) controls the converter output voltage and frequency. Space Vector PWM (SVPWM)and Sinusoidal PWM are the best techniques used in industries because its easy design. Space Vector PWM control method is implemented and it overcomes the disadvantages in PWM such as losses in switching of the converter, output harmonic content& provides better DC-bus voltages. The torque ripples are also reduced in SVPWM method compared to SPWM method. In this paper BLDC motor with a fuzzy controller is presented and the comparison in performance of SVPWM &SPWM methods presented. The SVPWM makes the drive has less ripple in torque& noiseless operation. The Matlab/Simulink models of SVPWM and SPWM method with fuzzy controlled BLDC motor also presented.

Abstract This paper presents an IHQRR (integrated high-quality rectifier regulator) BIBRED (boost integrated buck rectifier energy storage DC-DC) converter-based VSI (voltage source inverter)-fed BLDC (brushless DC) motor drive. The speed control of BLDC motor is achieved by controlling the DC link voltage of the VSI using a single voltage sensor. This allows VSI to operate in fundamental frequency switching mode for electronic commutation of BLDC motor which reduces the switching losses due to high-frequency switching used in conventional approach of PWM (pulse width modulation)-based VSI-fed BLDC motor drive. A BIBRED converter is operated in a dual-DCM (discontinuous conduction mode) thus using a voltage follower approach for PFC (power factor correction) and DC link voltage control. The performance of the proposed drive is evaluated for improved power quality over a wide range of speed control and supply voltage variation for demonstrating the behavior of proposed drive. The power quality indices thus obtained are within the recommended limits by international PQ (power quality) standards such as IEC 61000-3-2.

This study developed a hybrid pulse width modulation (PWM) control method intended for use in a high-speed brushless dc (BLDC) motor drive system that uses DC-link single-shunt current measurement. The method is designed to regulate rapid operation and expand the current sensing range of the aforementioned system and measurement, respectively. The operating characteristics of most typical PWM methods for BLDC motors were analyzed, after which, a PWM approach suitable for high-speed operation was identified. On the basis of the selected approach, the measurable range of DC-link single-shunt current was examined mathematically to determine a PWM method that is advantageous for current sensing. The results of the two analyses were used as guidance in formulating the proposed hybrid PWM control algorithm. Finally, the PWM method put forward in this work was verified through experimentation.

The vibration noise of the distributed drive autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) is mainly produced by the inverter-fed brushless DC permanent magnet in-wheel motor (PMIWM). It is necessary to reduce the vibration noise level of the PMIWM driven by pulse width modulation (PWM). A suppression approach of electromagnetic vibration noise for PMIWM is investigated. Firstly, the air gap magnetic field of the inverter-fed PMIWM was analyzed. The electric current harmonics and the unbalanced magnetic force (UMF) were investigated. The natural frequency and noise of the PMIWM were presented. Then, flux-weaken approach was employed to maintain the robustness of the PMIWM when a sudden drop of DC bus voltage. The random switching frequency (RSF) PWM control method based on two state Markov chain is proposed to decrease the amplitude of the harmonics caused by the switching frequency and the multiple switching frequencies. The experimental results show that the RSFPWM can not only effectively reduce the vibration noise and the inverter losses, but also improve the robustness of the PMIWM control system under unpredictable uncertainties.

In the inverter control system, two-phase modulated space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) algorithm has the advantages of minimum switch loss and higher utilization of direct current (DC) bus voltage. Non-dead-time control strategy can eliminate the problems of the dead time effects. But the traditional non-dead-time control strategy heavily depends on the current zero-crossing detection, which may cause the output voltage distortion or even a short circuit. Based on the analysis of the reason for the distortion, a new optimized non-dead-time control method is proposed. Two methods for the detection of the overlapping area are enumerated. The conclusions are confirmed by the simulation results with MATLAB/ SIMULINK.

Direct power control (DPC) of pulse width modulation (PWM) is often used to control the instantaneous power of rectifiers. The instantaneous power contains both grid voltage and current information, and its value is not affected by coordinate transformation. It is constant in steady state and reflects the DC control characteristics. However, the switching frequency of traditional DPC is not fixed, the DC voltage has static error, and the system fluctuates greatly. In this work, we introduce the concept of stator flux of the AC motor into the PWM rectifier. Combined with the space vector PWM (SVPWM) technology, we use the virtual flux estimation method to obtain the instantaneous power value, which saves the grid voltage sensor, eliminates the static difference of DC voltage. Furthermore, considering that the neural proportion integral differential (PID) control depends heavily on the initial weight coefficient of the network, we use chaos particle swarm optimization (CPSO) algorithm, which combines the basic PSO algorithm and chaos theory to optimize the initial weight coefficient of neural PID control. In the experiment, the results prove that the performance of the controller can be effectively improved.

<p><span>The study made in this paper concerns the use of the voltage-oriented control (VOC) of three-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifier with constant switching frequency. This control method, called voltage-oriented controlwith space vector modulation (VOC-SVM). The proposed control scheme has been founded on the transformation between stationary (α-β) and and synchronously rotating (d-q) coordinate system, it is based on two cascaded control loops so that a fast inner loop controls the grid current and an external loop DC-link voltage, while the DC-bus voltage is maintained at the desired level and ansured the unity power factor operation. So, the stable state performance and robustness against the load’s disturbance of PWM rectifiers are boths improved. The proposed scheme has been implemented and simulated in MATLAB/Simulink environment. The control system of the VOC-SVM strategy has been built based on dSPACE system with DS1104 controller board. The results obtained show the validity of the model and its control method. Compared with the conventional SPWM method, the VOC-SVM ensures high performance and fast transient response.</span></p>

With the widely use of Permanent Magnet Brushless DC Motor (BLDCM) in many fields, the superiority in the control method of position sensor-less is more and more obvious. In this paper several control methods of position sensor-less for BLDCM are presents, and a novel technique, the method of speed-independent position function, is introduced to detect the rotor position of BLDCM. This method may detect the rotor position from almost zero speed to high speed, and may also give the commutation time.
