Sensorless Vector Control of Permanent Magnet Electrical Machines and THALIPEM Demonstration
![](https://cpes.vt.edu/common/files/showcases/2006/sensorless.jpg)
The focus of the technology demonstration was on the sensorless vector control strategy and design methodology developed by CPES during the THALIPEM project. It included a series of three presentations -- including five lectures -- delivered to TAES engineers and managers, reviewing both theory and all practical implementation issues encountered and solved, as well as the solutions developed by CPES. A secondary focus of this work was the digital control implementation of the proposed sensorless vector control for permanent magnet electrical machines, as well as the advanced minimum-loss space vector modulation implementation and deadtime compensation strategies.
