Sensorless H speed-tracking synthesis for surface-mount permanent magnet synchronous motor.

In this paper, a sensorless speed tracking control is proposed for a surface-mount permanent magnet synchronous motor by using a nonlinear H-controller via stator currents measurements for feedback. An output feedback nonlinear H-controller was designed such that the undisturbed system is uniformly asymptotically stable around the desired speed reference, while also the effects of external vanishing and non-vanishing disturbances, noise, and input backlash were attenuated locally. The rotor position was calculated from the causal dynamic output feedback compensator and from the desired speed reference. The existence of the proper solutions of the perturbed differential Riccati equations ensures stabilizability and detectability of the control system. The efficiency of the proposed sensorless controller was supported by numerical simulations.
