Abstract
In an example, a system is disclosed. The system includes a rotor position estimation module configured to generate an adjustment signal to adjust a desired torque signal for a motor. The rotor position estimation module includes a sensor offset estimation module configured to estimate an offset position of a sensor based on (1) a motor current signal indicative of a current to rotate a rotor within the motor, (2) a motor voltage signal indicative of a voltage applied to a power inverter that provides the current to the motor, and (3) a motor parameter. The sensor can be disposed on the rotor. The rotor position estimation module also includes a speed adjustment module configured to generate the adjustment signal based on the estimated offset position.
