Enhanced Linear ADRC Strategy for HF Pulse Voltage Signal Injection-Based Sensorless IPMSM Drives

Abstract

High-frequency (HF) signal injection methods have been widely employed in the sensorless control of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drives from zero to low speed. However, the control performance will be deteriorated severely when the motor subjects to the disturbance. To cope with this issue, an enhanced linear active disturbance rejection control (LADRC)-based HF pulse voltage signal injection method is proposed in this paper. The cascaded extended state observer is established to guarantee relatively timely and accurate estimation of the total disturbance. The linear control law is generated to compensate for the total disturbance in a feedforward way, which reduces the plant to approximate a canonical first-order integral. The tracking performance and the stability of the enhanced LADRC are analyzed theoretically. Maximum torque per ampere control is adopted to reduce the estimation burden by making full use of the reluctance torque, which helps to further improve the tracking performance of the enhanced LADRC. Finally, the validity of the proposed sensorless control scheme is verified on a 2.2-kW IPMSM drive platform.
