Development of Three-Phase Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Motor Drive with Strategy to Suppress Harmonic Current

Abstract

This study aimed to develop a three-phase permanent-magnet synchronous motor drive system with improvement in current harmonics. Considering the harmonic components in the induced electromotive force of a permanent-magnet synchronous motor, the offline response of the induced electromotive force (EMF) was measured for fast Fourier analysis, the main harmonic components were obtained, and the voltage required to reduce the current harmonic components in the corresponding direct (d-axis) and quadrature (q-axis) axes was calculated. In the closed-loop control of the direct axis and quadrature axis current in the rotor reference frame, the compensation amount of the induced EMF with harmonic components was added. Compared with the online adjustment of current harmonic injection, this simplifies the control strategy. The drive system used a 32-bit digital signal processor (DSP) TMS320F28069 as the control core, the control strategies were implemented in software, and a resolver with a resolver-to-digital converter (RDC) was used for the feedback of angular position and speed. The actual measurement results of the current harmonic improvement control show that the total harmonic distortion of the three-phase current was reduced from 5.30% to 2.31%, and the electromagnetic torque ripple was reduced from 15.28% to 5.98%. The actual measurement results verify the feasibility of this method.
