Abstract

Aiming at the problems of high cost, increased volume, low reliability, and environmental interference caused by sensor installation on permanent magnet synchronous motor, estimation method for motor speed and rotor position is proposed based on iterated cubature Kalman filter algorithm and applied to permanent magnet synchronous motor sensorless control. First, discrete mathematical model of permanent magnet synchronous motor in α-β coordinate system is established. Then, based on cubature Kalman filter and iterated cubature Kalman filter, simulation model of sensorless vector control system with dual closed-loop of permanent magnet synchronous motor speed and current is established. Also, simulation verification of two working conditions with given rotation speed and load is carried out. Finally, hardware experimental verification platform is built based on TMS320F28335 chip. Both simulation analysis and experimental results show that iterated cubature Kalman filter application to sensorless control of permanent magnet synchronous motor demonstrates good anti-load variation interference, stable motor operation, high motor speed and rotor position estimation accuracy, which suits the application with high requirement for precise motor control and mean important reference value and promotion significance.
