This paper presents the control analysis and design for a permanent-magnet machine (PMM) operated in the flux-weakening (FW) mode for an aircraft electric starter- generator (SG) application. Previous literature has focused on FW control of PMMs in the motoring (starting) mode; however, the system stability and control in the generating mode have been inadequately studied. This paper reports detailed, rigorous control analysis and design for a PMM-based aircraft electric SG operated in the FW mode. It is shown that an unstable area of operation exists. A novel control scheme which eliminates this instability is proposed. The key analytical findings of the paper are verified by experimental investigation. This paper therefore concludes that the presented technique is able to ensure system stability under all modes of operation. Furthermore, it is noted that the findings of this work are also valuable for any two-quadrant PMM drive with frequent change between starting and generating regimes under current-limiting operation.
