Variable reluctance resolvers (VRRs) have been widely used for rotor position detection in harsh working conditions. However, conventional installation of VRRs inevitably occupies the axial space of machine systems, and may weaken the reliability of rotor position detection encountering shock and vibration. In this article, a novel VRR structure with inner stator is investigated, which is radially integrated inside a permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) to construct compact machine topology. The hybrid machine topology is first discussed, and detailed electromagnetic design is carried out. Improved analytical analysis on air gap flux density distribution and inductance evaluation of the integrated VRR is derived based on modified winding function approach, and testified by finite element analysis. A prototype is manufactured from an existing 2.2 kW PMSM, and experiments are conducted to validate the effectiveness of proposed machine topology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
