Displacement Estimation of Self-Sensing Magnetic Bearings Based on Biorthogonal Spline Wavelet
Abstract
By collecting the ripple current in the control coil, the self-sensing magnetic bearings can obtain rotor displacement information without a displacement sensor, which has the advantages of low cost and high integration. According to the problems of incomplete and inaccurate displacement information extraction caused by the traditional displacement estimation method using Fourier method to analyze the ripple current with non-stationary characteristics to estimate the rotor displacement with the Gibbs effect. Therefore, this paper proposes a rotor displacement estimation algorithm based on multiresolution filter bank biorthogonal spline wavelet for a magnetic bearing motor based on two-level switching power amplifier. This algorithm utilizes the biorthogonal spline wavelet with the characteristics of generalized linear phase and tight support, which can accurately demodulate the ripple current in the coil and extract the displacement information in the ripple current. Therefore, it is able to overcome the Gibbs effect in the traditional Fourier analysis estimation algorithm, to reduce the influence of ripple on rotor displacement estimation, and to improve the accuracy and stability of displacement estimation. In order to verify the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, this paper establishes a simulation model of magnetic bearing in MATLAB Simulink and designs the proposed displacement estimator. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has higher accuracy and better stability than traditional displacement estimation algorithms. Experimental results show that the maximum deviation rate of the displacement estimation method proposed in this paper does not exceed 1% when the radial magnetic bearing gap is 0.5 mm, which can effectively estimate the rotor displacement.
