Phase Current Reconstruction Error Suppression Method for Single DC-Link Shunt PMSM Drives at Low-Speed Region

The extensive application of vector phase shift modulation method in permanent magnet synchronous motor drive systems with single dc-link current sensor results in obvious current ripple in the low-speed region. The patterns of these ripples vary greatly in different sectors, leading to nonnegligible phase current reconstruction errors. In this article, an estimation of the local average current change rate (ELAC(2)R) based reconstruction error suppression method within the switching cycle is proposed to resolve this problem. By comparing the actual and the ideal sampling points, the increase of current ripple and the reconstruction error caused by the combination of the vector phase shift and the single current sensor sampling in the low-speed region are modelled and analyzed. Then according to equivalent modelling of the current ripple between the ideal and the actual sampling points, the more accurate phase current information can be quickly obtained based on the sampling value. The compensation process is significantly simplified and the computation burden of the processor is reduced. Experimental results show that the performance of current reconstruction can be improved effectively with less harmonic content with the proposed method.
