    Abstract: A system configured to operate an electric motor and correct for current measurement errors present in current sensors used by the system includes a plurality of voltage drivers, a plurality of current sensors, and a controller. Each of the plurality of voltage drivers is electrically coupled to each phase of a motor. Each of the plurality of current sensors is each configured to measure current in each phase of the motor. The controller is configured to sample a current-signal from each current sensor, and determine a baseline-offset error of each current sensor based on a plurality of samples of the current-signal from each current sensor while the motor is rotating.

    Abstract: A method to estimate power dissipation of an inverter configured to control electric energy to an electric machine. The method can estimate both conductive power losses and switched power losses of a transistor or a diode in a power switch or driver stage of the inverter. The estimation includes applying a correction factor (CF) to power dissipation calculations if the modulation index of the inverter is greater than a threshold indicating that the inverter is being over-driven or operated in a non-linear region.
