Abstract
A method for sensorless control of an electric motor implemented in a variable speed drive including: determining a control voltage to be applied to the motor; injecting a high frequency signal to the control voltage to obtain an excitation voltage, wherein one or more frequencies of the high frequency signal varies with time; applying the excitation voltage to the motor; measuring a current signal induced in the motor by the excitation voltage, wherein the current signal comprises a fundamental current, induced by the control voltage, and a disturbance current, induced by the high frequency signal; and demodulating the current signal.
