Abstract
Torque ripples of a motor having interior permanent magnets can be reduced through the following method and the torque ripple controller using the same method: first, drive the motor having a plurality of phase windings and interior permanent magnets with a basic current supply circuit which outputs a basic current having a predetermined waveform, then store torque ripple waves produced in the running motor or obtained through a numerical analysis into a torque-ripple-wave-memory, next, compensate the torque ripple wave tapped off from the memory according to a prepared torque ripple compensation pattern and transform it to a torque compensation waveform with a torque-compensation-waveform-producing-circuit, further, multiply the torque compensation waveform tapped off from the waveform producing circuit by the basic current with a multiplier to output a torque ripple control current, and, supply the torque ripple control current to the plurality of phase windings shifting a phase by a predetermined electrical angle sequentially.
