In the permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive system, the unwilling and ear-piercing vibro-acoustics caused by high-frequency sideband harmonics becomes unacceptable in electric vehicle applications. In this paper, a modified space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique implemented with a hybrid carrier frequency modulation (HCFM) is provided to reduce the sideband current harmonic components and vibro-acoustic responses. The principle and implementation of the proposed HCFM technique are firstly presented in which the fixed carrier frequency is improved with the sawtooth and random signal-based coupling modulation based on the rotor position. The analytical derivations with the power spectral density method are also proposed. For verification, the experiment tests are conducted on a prototype 12/10 PMSM and microcontroller unit. The effectiveness of the HCFM technique can hence be confirmed considering the sideband vibro-acoustics reduction operated more effectively than that in a conventional random PWM. The proposed approach may provide a new route in noise-cancelling and electromagnetic compatibility for the electric drive powertrain.

Detection of the rotor position is an important prerequisite for controlling the speed and developed torque in permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Even though use of incremental encoder and resolver is one of the popular schemes for sensing the rotor position in a PMSM drive, it increases the size and weight of the drive and reduces its reliability. Dynamic modeling of the motor and control algorithms are often used in sensor-less control of PMSM to estimate rotor position and motor speed. Most sensor-less control algorithms use machine parameters like torque constant, stator inductances and stator resistance for estimating the rotor position and speed. However, with accuracy of such estimation and the performance of the motor degrades with variation in motor parameters. Model reference adaptive control (MRAC) provides a simple solution to this issue. An improved Adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) based MRAC observer for speed control of PMSM drive is presented in this paper. In the proposed method adaptive model and adaptive mechanism are replaced by an improved ANFIS controller, which neutralize the effect of parametric variation and results in improved performance of the drive. The modeling equations of PMSM are used to estimate the rotor position for speed and torque control of the drive. Simulation studies have been carried out under various operating condition using MATLAB/Simulink. In addition, a comparative analysis of the conventional MRAC based observer and improved ANFIS based MRAC observer is carried out. It is observed that the proposed method results in better performance of the PMSM drive.

Permanent magnet synchronous motor always suffers from air gap field distortion and inverter nonlinearity, which lead to the harmonic components in motor currents. A resonant controller is a remarkable control method to eliminate periodic disturbance, whereas the conventional resonant controller is limited by narrow bandwidth and phase lag. This article presents a novel resonant controller with a precise phase compensation method for a permanent magnet synchronous motor to suppress the current harmonics. Based on the analysis of the current harmonic characteristics, the proposed resonant controller for rejecting a set of selected current harmonic components is plugged in the current loop, and it is parallel to the traditional proportional–integral controller. Furthermore, the stability analysis of the proposed resonant controller is investigated, and the parameters are tuned to get a satisfactory performance. Compared with the conventional resonant controller, the proposed resonant controller can achieve good steady-state performance, dynamic performance, and frequency adaptivity performance, simultaneously. Finally, the experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed suppression scheme.
