The permanent-electro magnetic suspension (PEMS) technology takes advantage of the attractive magnetic force between the magnet and the iron core and reduces the power consumption eventually to zero. However, the current of the zero-power PEMS system fluctuates around zero due to disturbances and suffers from the electronic nonlinearity. This work presents that the 2 µs turn-off delay (one electronic defect) of the integrated circuit (IC) L298N (one commercial full-bridge pulse-width-modulation (PWM) inverter produced by STMicroelectronics) leads to the nonlinear current-duty cycle characteristic, which undermines the control stability and limits the PWM frequency of the zero-power PEMS system. Moreover, the nonlinear mechanism is experimentally and theoretically analyzed for the critical PWM frequency and the sensitivity transition. Furthermore, this work proposes the compensation algorithm to overcome the electronic nonlinearity. It is demonstrated that the three-piece linearization approach stabilizes the PEMS system with only a few milliampere current and outperforms the two-piece counterpart with stronger robustness and smoother dynamics under the current-step-change test, especially for the PWM frequency higher than the critical value. Besides, the breakthrough of the critical PWM frequency by the compensation algorithm is of great significance for the dynamic performance of the high-speed PEMS transportation system.
