    Abstract: A motor controller to control rotational speed of an output shaft of an electric motor. The motor controller includes a proportional controller and a time-optimal controller. The proportional controller controls the rotational speed when a present rotational position of the shaft is between a target rotational position and a switching point, inclusively. The time-optimal controller controls the rotational speed when the present rotational position is not between the target rotational position and the switching point. Also introduced herein are aspects pertaining to determining the switching point in a manner that minimizes overshooting the target rotational position while maximizing expediency at which the target rotational position is reached.

    Abstract: A control system for an electrically-actuated, rideable saddle vehicle including an electric traction motor and a vehicle control system having two different speed acquisition systems. A first speed system includes a position sensor and controls power to the motor on a basis of a control signal, which is characteristic of torque selectively required by the electric motor. A second speed system includes Logic circuitry for estimating vehicle speed from estimated variations of a counter-electromotive force generated in the stator winding as a result of the rotor movement of the motor. The two systems allow optimizing control of the motor from both speed systems, or from that considered more reliable in a given operating condition, during operation of the vehicle. Illustratively, for low speeds, speed control may be based on sensor signals in the first speed system, while high speeds control may be based on the estimates from the logic system.

    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for sensorless profiling of a current waveform in a switched-reluctance motor (SRM) is disclosed. The apparatus comprises a switched-reluctance motor having at least one stator pole and at least one rotor pole, a phase inverter controlled by a processor, a load, a converter and a software control module at the processor. The current waveform sets a target magnitude for a programmable dwell angle that scales a programmable waveform shape. Slope of the current is continuously monitored which allows the shaft speed to be updated multiple times and to track any change in speed and fix the dwell angle based on the shaft speed. The method reduces the overall radial force magnitude by compensating nonlinear torque production thereby reducing the acoustic noise reduction and torque ripple which results in computational efficiency of the SRM.

    Abstract: A switched reluctance motor modeling method, which is applicable to switched reluctance motors of various phase numbers. A variable resistor (RMp) formed by four operational amplifiers (U1, U2, U3, U4), three current conveyors (U5, U6, U7), a digital potentiometer and a digital controller, eight resistors (R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, Ro, Rx, Rs) and a capacitor (C) are adopted to form a switched reluctance motor phase winding equivalent model. The modeling method is simple, can realize system mathematic direct simulation for switched reluctance motors, and is capable of simulating and controlling in real time.

    Abstract: A method for synchronizing an MDPS motor and a motor position sensor may include: sequentially aligning, by a controller, a rotor of the MDPS motor by sequentially applying preset three-phase current pulses to the MDPS motor, the three-phase current pulses corresponding to one electrical-angle cycle of the rotor of the MDPS motor, and detecting an actual rotational position of the aligned rotor through the motor position sensor; determining a zero point rotational position of the rotor based on the actual rotational position; determining a reference rotational position of the rotor based on the actual rotational position and the number of pole pairs in the MDPS motor, and determining an offset rotational position of the rotor based on the actual rotational position and the reference rotational position; and correcting the zero point rotational position by adding the offset rotational position to the zero point rotational position.

    Abstract: A motor drive controller includes: a motor drive unit; and a lock energization control circuit configured to control the motor drive unit to cause a lock current for holding the rotor at a predetermined lock position to flow from the motor drive unit to the drive coils for lock energization duration before rotation of the motor is started. The lock energization control circuit includes: a first lock energization unit that controls the motor drive unit such that a magnitude of the lock current becomes a first predetermined value when first predetermined duration has elapsed after the lock energization duration is started; and a second lock energization unit that controls the motor drive unit such that the magnitude of the lock current becomes a second predetermined value smaller than the first predetermined value when the lock energization duration is terminated after the first predetermined duration has elapsed.
