This thesis is part of the Renault/Centrale Nantes Chair on improving the performance of
electric vehicles (EV/HEV). It is dedicated to the problem of estimating the position/speed of …

Current injection-based on-line parameter estimation for the permanent magnet
synchronous motor (PMSM) has been widely investigated in the literature. This paper aims …

This paper introduces a set of estimators for a wide class of multiplexed signal. The signals
of interest are decomposed on independent periodic signals with a shared frequency. This …

This article presents a model of a Synchronous Reluctance Motor (SynRM) at standstill,
including magnetic hysteresis, to study its impact on High-Frequency (HF) signal injection …

This paper describes a technique for on-line inductance estimation for an interior permanent
magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) based on a modified square wave voltage injection …

Sensorless control of electric motors at low speed remains a complex and fertile industrial
problem. The observability degeneracy at zero speed when the rotor position is not …

This chapter presents a brief literature review of self-sensing techniques for IPMSM drives.
The objective is to the most suitable self-sensing technique to the EV traction application …
