Linear Motors are potential candidates for replacing traditional rotary motors in high-speed transit systems. Linear Switched Reluctance Motor (LSRM) is the widely researched motor for such applications. This paper presents a design for linear switched reluctance motor (LSRM) with an improved propulsion force profile. The proposed motor consists of moving translator for direct drive transmission, without the use of mechanical gears. The stator contains a split-teethed stator structure. The proposed motor has more translator teeth than stator teeth. This paper includes a new design methodology for the proposed combination of stator and translator. The motor is designed and analyzed using 3-D finite-element method (FEM). The proposed motor has been optimized using a parameter-based cumulative deterministic optimization algorithm (PBCDOA) for further improving the force profile. The FEM results demonstrate the effectiveness of the design procedure and better force performance of the proposed topology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
