Current harmonic suppression strategy for permanent magnet synchronous motor based on small phase angle resonant controller

Abstract

Abstract In this study, a small phase angle resonant controller (SPARC) is designed to suppress the current harmonics in a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). First, the analytical model of the PMSM is established. Second, a SPARC is designed to improve the problem of the overly large phase angle of the resonant controller at the resonant frequency. Third, the frequency error caused by the SPARC discretisation is compensated online. Finally, an experimental platform is built for the PMSM harmonic suppression, and the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed method are verified through a comparison with the method of motor control using quasi‐resonant controller.
