Abstract
A sensor is configured to sense current, of one or more output phases of an inverter, associated with back electromotive force (back EMF) of the machine. A converter or electronic data processor is adapted to convert the sensed current into current vectors associated with a stationary reference frame. An estimator or current model is configured to estimate back-EMF vectors from the converted current vectors. A vector tracking observer or the electronic data processor is adapted to mix the back-EMF vectors and applying the mixed back-EMF vectors to a preliminary inertial model. A secondary observer or the data processor is operable to apply the output of the preliminary inertial model to a secondary inertial model in the second speed range to estimate position or motion data for the rotor.
