The combination of direct torque control and permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) provides a highly dynamic drive. In this paper direct torque control method of PMSM is merged with a sensorless control algorithm and a robust flux observer is proposed which results in a high performance highly reliable drive. First a high frequency signal injection method within DTC algorithm is introduced to estimate the rotor position of PMSM. Then the method is modified in order to estimate stator dynamic inductances. The stator inductances are then used in a current model flux observer  

Position sensorless control of ac machines at zero and low speed is possible using high-frequency carrier injection methods. These methods utilize anisotropic properties of rotor. Therefore, they may lose their efficiency for nonsalient machines or machines with small rotor saliency. In these machines, measurement noise and offset, existing delays, as well as model uncertainties may lead to inaccurate estimation of rotor position. Stator resistance which is usually neglected in these methods may also lead to a considerable error especially in machines with small rotor saliency. In this paper, a new position estimation method is presented, and it is shown that in comparison to conventional... 

Sensorless schemes based on HF carrier injection are capable of estimating rotor position in a wide speed range. In these schemes first an additional HF voltage is injected to stator windings. The corresponding HF current is decoupled from main stator currents and the position of the rotor saliency is estimated based on the decoupled HF current in a closed loop tracking observer. The tracking observer is capable of tracking rotor saliency with no steady state error. Transient error appears when the motor starts to move or whenever the rotor speed changes because of any disturbance or any change in the rotor speed command. In this paper a new solution is proposed in order to compensate for... 

Sensorless control of permanent magnet synchronous motors allows reducing cost and complexity, and increasing mechanical robustness and noise immunity. Sensorless methods based on high frequency carrier injection have attracted considerable attention in recent years as they can estimate rotor position in a wide speed range. These methods employ anisotropic properties of rotor to estimate rotor position in ac machines. With internal permanent magnet motors, the high frequency signal injection method can deliver precise sensorless control, however in surface-mounted permanent magnet machines, where a small saliency arises from main flux saturation, the estimation of rotor magnet position is...
