Field-oriented control of a PMSM drive system using the dSPACE controller

Abstract

Field-oriented control (FOC) of the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is one of the widely used scheme in drive system application. Moreover, in some high performance applications, the rotor position information is needed that can be measured by a resolver for example. A drive system is designed and explained based on the FOC of a PMSM using the dSPACE controller. A resolver sensor is used for the position measurement in the system. Simulation and practical implementation results are presented to verify the proper operation of the drive system that is a speed controller in this case.
