SUMMARYSpeed sensorless vector controlled induction motor drives are the standard choice in many industrial applications, but this can hardly control torque and rotor speed at low speed. Recently, a method based on high-frequency signal injection has been studied. This paper presents a method for suppressing the effects of the saturation saliency by using a high-pass filter, and a new approach to estimate the rotor speed. The effectiveness of these methods is demonstrated through experimental results showing both good suppression of saturation harmonics and good sensorless speed control at low speed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
