This paper presents a novel power system oscillation damping controller design based on a
data-driven model-predictive control (MPC) approach. The system dynamics are extracted …

During the operation of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), accurate parameter
identification plays an important role in high-performance motor control, especially in a …

The zero-speed rotor position estimation in surface mounted permanent magnet
synchronous motor (SM-PMSM) represents a challenge due to the weak magnetic saliency …

We propose a method to “create” a new measurement output by exciting the system with a
high-frequency oscillation. This new “virtual” measurement may be useful to facilitate the …

We show that for PWM-operated devices, it is possible to benefit from signal injection without
an external probing signal, by suitably using the excitation provided by the PWM itself. As in …

To address the displacement tracking problems with control current saturation and fast time-
varying load torque for continuous casting mold driven by permanent magnet synchronous …

Probing signal injection is a well-established technique to extract additional information from
a weakly (or non) observable dynamical system. Using averaging theory, a framework to …

Several heuristic procedures to estimate the rotor position of interior permanent magnet
synchronous motors (IPMSM) via signal injection have been reported in the application …

We demonstrate how the rotor position of a PWM-controlled PMSM can be recovered from
the measured currents, by suitably using the excitation provided by the PWM itself. This …

We show how the gradient observer proposed in Bernard & Praly, IFAC 2017, can be
practically implemented to estimate online the rotor position and the magnet flux of salient …
