Abstract

This paper presents the design and implementation of a current controlled Rotor Flux Oriented PMSM for automotive steer-by-wire applications. The development of a realistic torque feedback reference is carried out by actual monitoring of a commercial vehicle. The paper shall discuss the torque dynamics of the PMSM drive with respect to position demands replicating a driver at the handwheel. A PowerPoint presentation by same authors about this subject is included in this section., peer-reviewed

Abstract

This paper shall present the design, simulation and implementation of a sensorless observer for three-phase permanent magnet synchronous machines which can be used for automotive steer-by-wire applications. It shall be shown that the observer has sufficient bandwidth to track steering transients enabling the sensorless speed/position estimates to be used for backup in case of encoder failure. The sensorless method is based on a high frequency injection approach which estimates speed/position from machine saliencies. The simulation/experimental environments were designed so as to emulate actual steering conditions studied as part of this research project.Additionally, a PowerPoint presentation on Sensorless Position Tracking for Steer-by-Wire Applications by the authors is included in this section., peer-reviewed
