This paper presents a novel pattern matching based position sensorless control method for IPMSMs. A target IPMSM for the proposed method is designed such that it has high power and torque density, while also being significantly influenced by magnetic saturation. As previously reported in papers , for IPMSMs, heavy magnetic saturation affects the spatial distribution of phase inductances according to rotor positions. Most position sensorless controls at low speeds typically depend on the assumption that phase inductances have sinusoidal spatial distribution according to rotor positions. Therefore, it is difficult to apply conventional methods to IPMSMs with heavy magnetic saturation. In the proposed method, rotor position is estimated by pattern matching using feature values, so that the phase inductances have unique and reproducible value according to rotor positions. While template data sets are required for the proposed method, the assumption for sinusoidal phase inductances is not. In this paper, the effect of magnetic saturation for position estimation based on conventional methods is discussed in Section 1 and 2. Then, details of the proposed method are shown in Section 3. In Section 4, results of experiments carried out in steady state and transient state are presented. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through the experiments.
