A control architecture for an electrical inverter includes a command limiter that is realized as a circular voltage limiter. The command limiter includes a Cartesian-to-polar converter coupled to a command source such as a synchronous frame current regulator. The Cartesian-to-polar converter provides magnitude and phase components for d-q command voltages. The command limiter further includes a magnitude limiter that limits the magnitude component to the maximum fundamental voltage component of the inverter, and a polar-to-Cartesian converter that converts the limited magnitude component and the phase component into modified d-q command voltages.

The present invention includes a method for thermal management in a voltage source inverter. The method includes sensing a low output frequency condition, determining a zero vector modulation responsive to the sensed low output frequency condition, and applying the determined zero vector modulation to reduce thermal stress in the voltage source inverter. The step of determining the zero vector modulation responsive to the sensed low output frequency condition includes mapping an output voltage requirement to a space vector structure and determining state switching space vectors based on the mapped output voltage requirement. The step of determining the state switching space vector includes determining active state switching space vectors associated with the state switching space vectors, determining duty cycles for the active state switching space vectors based on the active state switching space vectors, and determining a duty cycle for at least one zero state switching space vector based on the determined duty cycles of the active state switching space vectors and a switching period.

A method for decoupling a harmonic signal from an input signal wherein the harmonic signal is harmonic relative to a signal other than the input signal. An angular position of the other signal is multiplied by a value representing the harmonic to obtain an angular position multiple. A harmonic decoupling block uses the angular position multiple to obtain correction signals representing the harmonic signal, and subtracts the correction signals from the input current to decouple the harmonic signal from the input signal. This method is useful for decoupling unwanted harmonics from currents into which high-frequency signals have been injected for control of electric motors.

A control scheme for an surface-mounted permanent-magnet synchronous (SMPMS) drive uses a combination of an open-loop magnetizing current reference calculation and a stabilizing feedback term, which speeds-up the torque transient response. The feedback term increases the stability margin during torque transients by increasing the available voltage margin for current control. The magnetizing current reference calculation takes into account the saturation effects in the SMPMS drive, which occur at peak torque points, and compensates for them. By taking into account saturation effects, stable operation at high speed is achieved, thereby increasing the speed range of the SMPMS drive.

A surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous machine drive 10 and a method 30 of controlling the machine drive. Flux weakening and current regulating loops 70, 60 cooperate to provide automatic transition to the flux weakening mode (operation above base speed), regardless of DC bus voltage, load or other operating conditions. This feature provides significant performance improvement. No look-up tables are used in the flux weakening loop. The on-set point for flux weakening is automatically adjusted, and may be changed through software. An appropriate d-axis current component is injected over the entire speed range, providing the maximum available torque (which corresponds to the q-axis current component). The control method works with fixed frequency current compensators.
