The virtual impedance concept is increasingly used for the control of power electronic
systems. Generally, the virtual impedance loop can either be embedded as an additional …

This paper presents a review in state of the art techniques for position sensorless permanent
magnet synchronous motor drives. In particular nonadaptive methods like estimators using …

Despite two decades of massive strides in research and development on control strategies
and their subsequent implementation, most books on permanent magnet motor drives still …

AC Motor Control and Electrical Vehicle Applications provides a guide to the control of AC
motors with a focus on its application to electric vehicles (EV). It describes the rotating …

This paper proposes a nonlinear sliding-mode speed-control scheme for interior permanent-
magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives incorporating the maximum-torque-per-ampere …

Back-EMF-based sensorless control of permanent magnet synchronous machines (PMSMs)
is preferred in many industrial applications due to its control simplicity and high machine …

The use of AC electrical machines in controlled electrical drive applications is reviewed. The

A nonlinear observer for surface-mount permanent-magnet synchronous motors (SPMSMs)
was recently proposed by Ortega et al.(LSS, Gif-sur-Yvette Cedex, France, LSS Internal …

In this paper, a model-reference-based online identification method is proposed to estimate
permanent-magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) parameters during transients and in …

Direct torque control of interior permanent-magnet synchronous motors is known to deliver
fast torque and flux dynamic responses. However, the poor flux estimation at very low …
