We present an exact model for determining the cogging torque in a brushless DC (BLDC) motor. It is based on the conformal mapping (CM) method, by which the motor configuration is transformed to a configuration where the magnetic field can be determined. Th ...
In this article a high performance Extended Kalman filter algorithm is used to estimate rotor speed, rotor position and load torque in a Hybrid Stepper Motor (HSM). Together with a PI speed controller, the Kalman filter forms a very robust sensorless close ...
In many applications, industry has tried to develop sinusoidal supply for brushless DC (BLDC) motors. This paper describes a method that still keeps a simple 2 phases-on sensorless method and achieves sinusoidal supply, which is needed to avoid speed oscil ...

In some applications, it is interesting to know the position of a BLDC Motor at standstill. This paper propose one solution using the saturation property of the motor. Principle, simulation and measures are presented. The results of industrial applications ...
The number of brushless DC (BLDC) motor applications has increased significantly, essentially due to reduced costs of semiconductors and permanent magnets, but also because of the emergence of new control strategies, such as closed-loop and sensorless cont ...
This paper describes a low cost sensorless position detection scheme for a brushless DC motor. This method is based on interruption of the 3 phase-currents and reading the back-EMF. The hardware for measuring the back-EMF is very simple. The method is poss ...
Designing transducers or motors, requires the analysis of a lot of parameters such as length, temperature, efficiency, weight, etc. The solution to obtain the optimum results for given specifications is to analyze globally all the free parameters in one go ...
