Abstract
The present invention concerns a method and a device for determining a position of a rotor of a three-phase motor using a FOC system. The invention: —determines, by a proportional-integral controller, a first control voltage vector at a first instant, —transforms the first control voltage vector using an inverse Park transform, —sums the transformed first control voltage vector to a regular polygonal voltage pattern applied during a given duration, —performs a PWM from the sum of the transformed first control voltage vector and the regular polygonal voltage pattern, —controls the motor with the pulse-width modulation, —measures the current at each phase of the motor, —estimates the position of the rotor from the measured currents and from the regular polygonal voltage pattern, —determines, at a second instant, a second control voltage vector from the measured currents and from the estimated position.
