Abstract:
Controlled AC motor drives without mechanical speed sensors at the motor shaft have the attractions of low cost and high reliability. To replace the sensor, the information on the rotor speed is extracted from measured stator currents and from the voltages at the motor terminals. Vector controlled drives require estimating the magnitude and spatial orientation of the fundamental magnetic flux waves in the stator or in the rotor. Open loop estimators or closed loop observers are used for this purpose. They differ with respect to accuracy, robustness, and sensitivity against model parameter variations. Dynamic performance and steady-state speed accuracy around zero speed range is achieved by signal injection, exploiting the anisotropic properties of the machine. The overview in this paper uses signal flow graphs of complex space vector quantities to provide an insightful description of the systems used in sensorless control of AC motors - 93.J. Holtz, J.

Abstract:
High-power pulsewidth-modulated inverters for medium-voltage applications operate at switching frequencies below 1 kHz to keep the dynamic losses of the power devices at a permitted level. Also, the sampling rate of the digital signal processing system is then low, which introduces considerable signal delays. These have adverse effects on the dynamics of the current control system and introduce undesired cross coupling between the current components i/sub d/ and i/sub q/. To overcome this problem, complex state variables are used to derive more accurate models of the machine and the inverter. From these, a novel current controller structure employing single-complex zeros is synthesized. Experimental results demonstrate that high dynamic performance and zero cross coupling is achieved even at very low switching frequency. - 92.A. Wirsen and S.

Abstract:
This research project deals with the development of a solid, intelligent converter with a good value. The energy of fuel cells or other low-voltage energy-sources (40 to 80 VDC) is feeded decentral into the public net (230 VAC/50 Hz or 110 VAC/60 Hz). Because of the requirements of the serial product (e.g. low price, reliability, range of use) a prototype of a converter with high frequency transformer was built. The latest electronic devices and a digital signal processor as central controller have been applied to achieve high efficiency and flexible power injection. It is possible to obtain improvements of the local voltage quality and stability by adjusting active and reactive power as well as power factor and current shape. - 89.J. Holtz and H.

Abstract:
Sensorless position control of induction motors relies on the detection of rotor anisotropies. The repetitive transient excitation through the switched voltages of the pulsewidth-modulated inverter provides the test signals to identify the spatial orientation of the anisotropies that indicate the rotor position. The position information is contained in the inverter output voltages. These are measured against the neutral point of the star connected stator winding. The signals are heavily corrupted by disturbances. These originate from the propagation of traveling waves on a long motor cable and from the influence of high-frequency common-mode currents. The paper describes how a clean position signal is extracted in the presence of such noise. - 88.R. Lach, S. Soter and R.

Abstract:
Owing to the variable magnetic coupling between the stator windings and the discrete rotor bars of an induction motor, a quasicontinuous rotor position signal can be acquired by instantaneous measurement of the total leakage inductance of the three stator phases. The signals are sampled in synchronism with the regular commutations of the pulsewidth-modulation process, thus making the injection of additional high-frequency carriers obsolete. The acquired position signal exhibits high spatial resolution and high dynamic bandwidth. Magnetic saturation also influences the total leakage inductances and, hence, constitutes a disturbance for position identification. This paper presents a detailed analysis of the saturation effects and proposes methods to eliminate their undesired impact on the position signal. Experimental results of closed-loop sensorless position control at full load and high dynamic performance are presented.
