This modulation technique produces good quality output waveforms in terms of low voltage and current THD. This paper shows a survey on different space vector PWM techniques for two-level voltage source inverter. In this paper, an improved 600 discontinuous PWM technique has been proposed that has less number of switching states in each subcycle. An advanced space vector PWM switching sequence has been studied and examined. It has been found that advanced space vector PWM method generates better output waveforms having low voltage and current THD as compared to other space vector PWM sequences. Simulation results of different space vector PWM sequences show that advanced space vector PWM switching sequence gives better result and effectively reduces the current THD.","PeriodicalId":125885,"journal":{"name":"2017 National Power Electronics Conference (NPEC)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126922044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sengupta","doi":"10.1109/NPEC.2017.8310447","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/NPEC.2017.8310447","url":null,"abstract":"This paper presents a novel, reliable, simple and efficient sensor less vector control technique of a 8 pole, 750 rpm, 5 kW surface mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM) without damper winding. Rotor position and speed are obtained from the estimated back-emf using a PLL which is synchronised with the back emf. A novel technique is used to estimate the back-emf. The reference voltages which are used for gate pulse generation have been used in a PLL to estimate the rotor position and speed simultaneously. Hence, no additional speed estimation algorithm is required. The starting in the sensorless operation of surafce mounted PMSM (as it has zero saliency) requires complex and computation extensive algorithms. Moreover, these techniques lacks accuracy. Here, simple V/f control technique is used to start the rotor. The machines enters into the vector control operation as it reaches a pre-specified threshold (here, 0.1 p.u. i.e. 75 rpm). Simulated and experimental results of speed and position estimation with the complete drive has been presented. These results establish the accuracy of the proposed sensorless vector control strategy and the precision of hardware implementation. The PMSM itself was designed and fabricated in the laboratory.","PeriodicalId":125885,"journal":{"name":"2017 National Power Electronics Conference (NPEC)","volume":"40 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115018449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
