Abstract

This paper presents a method for speed, position and phase-to-phase back-EMF estimation in trapezoidal Brushless DC motors (BLDCM) through application of the sliding mode technique. The electrical dynamic equations of BLDCM are modified to obtain the sliding mode observer model where the phase-to-phase back-EMF, position and speed are estimated using measured stator currents and voltages. A theoretical study is developed and the results obtained by simulation are presented to show the effectiveness of the method.
