Synopsis

Permanent magnet synchronous (PMS) motors stand at the forefront of electric motor development due to their energy saving capabilities and performance potential. The motors have been developed in response to mounting environmental crises and growing electricity prices, and they have enabled the emergence of motor drive applications like those found in electric and hybrid vehicles, fly by wire, and drones.

Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors is a timely advancement along that path as the first comprehensive, self-contained, and thoroughly up-to-date book devoted solely to the control of PMS motors. It offers a deep and extended analysis, design, implementation, and performance evaluation of major motor control methods, including Vector, Direct Torque, Predictive, Deadbeat, and Combined Control, in a systematic and coherent manner. All major Sensorless Control and Parameter Estimation methods are also studied. The book places great emphasis on energy saving control schemes.

About this title

From the Author

A growing need for the treatment of the PMS motor control asa whole has emerged as more researchers and engineers become involved in thefield. This book, as an outcome of the author's study, research, and teachingduring the last quarter of century, is a respond to the mentioned need bypresenting PMS motor control in a broad, detailed, and still deep sense.

The author has attempted a unified modeling of PMS motorsfor control applications in all major reference frames, with and without takinginto account copper and iron losses, magnetic saturation, demagnetization, etc.Systematic analysis and design of motor control systems based on major controlmethods for PMS motors including vector control, direct torque control,predictive control, deadbeat control, and combined control are then presented invarious appropriate reference frames. These include supplementary control meansto achieve various operating modes of motor operation  including maximum torque per ampere, maximumtorque per voltage, unity power factor, and minimum loss, under major control methodsin various reference frames considering motor and inverter constraints. Inaddition, a wide variety of position and speed estimation schemes andsensorless control systems, emphasizing their features and limitations arestudied. Finally, identification and estimation of major motor parameters by severaloffline and online schemes, and the means for incorporating them into motorcontrol systems are presented.

End-chapter problems are designed to serve as a complementaryresource for comprehending various aspects of the presented materials and forfacilitating the book to be used as a text. Important classical works, inaddition to selected major recent developments on PMS motor control are listedin the form of end-chapter bibliographies to serve researchers in the field.This book coherently investigates about 70 control and estimation systems, thusproviding a rather comprehensive account of PMS motor control. Nevertheless,the author has intentionally disregarded much material found in the literature,although they are useful in themselves to prevent this book from losing focusand to avoid a handbook type of publication.

Graduate students, academics, and engineers with a basicbackground in electric machines, power electronics, and control can use thisbook. The author's experience is that AC motor control can be taught byteaching the control of PMS motors first. Control of induction and other typesof AC motors can then be offered with less effort and more effectiveness.Pursuing this approach, this book can be used as a text for a major part of agraduate course on the control of AC motors. Alternatively, it can be used fora course fully devoted to the control of PMS motors. New researchers in thefield, including graduate students, may find this book useful in systematicallyreaching a level to pursue advanced topics in many branches of PMS motorcontrol. Experienced researchers and faculty members with a background in thefield will find this book an essential resource on their bookshelf. The bookhas been authored by eyes open to the needs of developers of motor control systems,without going through very technical materials, which are found in motor drivemanufacturing resources such as application notes. The author greatly welcomessuggestions for a possible new edition of the book.

From the Back Cover

Permanent magnet synchronous (PMS) motors stand at the forefront of electric motor
development due to their energy saving capabilities and performance potential. Expanding
environmental crises and increasing electricity prices on the one hand, and emerging
motor drive applications like electric and hybrid vehicles, fly by wire, and drones on the
other, have made PMS motors essential to many of our latest technological needs.
Control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors is a timely advancement along that
path as the first comprehensive, self-contained, and thoroughly up-to-date book devoted
solely to the control of PMS motors. It offers a deep and extended analysis, design,
implementation, and performance evaluation of major motor control methods, including
Vector, Direct Torque, Predictive, Deadbeat, and Combined Control in a systematic and
coherent manner. It also examines all major Sensorless Control and Parameter Estimation
methods. The book places particular emphasis on energy saving control schemes. This
serves as a textbook, with the first four chapters ideal for a primary graduate course and
the last three chapters for an advanced course. It is also crucial reading for researchers,
design engineers, and other experts in the field.
* Describes more than seventy control and estimation schemes with sufficient analytical
and implementation details
* Presents over ten machine models essential for motor control
* Includes over 150 original figures for easy and deep understanding of complex concepts,
formulas and system implementations
* Provides extensive simulation and experimental results for performance evaluation
* Illuminates past, present and future of PMS motor market
* Includes end of chapter problems and focused bibliographies for teaching and research
* Balances theory and practice to serve academic and industrial needs

'This is a well written book by an authority on control of permanent magnet machines.
Various control schemes such as vector control and direct torque control of this very
important class of motors are well treated in the book. The book has also considered speed estimation that is very important in sensorless permanent magnet motor drives.'Hamid A. Toliyat, Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering,
