Abstract
A back-EMF-based position observer for motion-sensorless synchronous reluctance motor (SyRM) drives is augmented with parameter-adaptation laws for improved operation at all speeds, including standstill. The augmented observer is theoretically analyzed under various operation conditions. The analysis indicates that the stator-resistance adaptation should be enabled only at low speeds, the d-axis inductance adaptation should be enabled only at medium and high speeds near no load, and the q-axis inductance adaptation should be enabled only at high speeds under high load. The augmented observer is experimentally evaluated using a 6.7-kW SyRM drive.Peer reviewe
