Abstract
Procedure for estimating the electrical drive speed and position of a permanent magnet rotor of a brushless electrical linear or rotating motor, especially for a drive control circuit, using multi-phase current measurements on the motor, whose measurement values, depending on the estimated position, are transformed into a rotor-related d,q reference frame i.e. into a direct current vector component and a quadrature current vector component, and the direct and quadrature vector components of current and a voltage, together with the estimated speed, are fed as input variables to a mathematical motor model, and the motor model generates a first output variable and a second output variable, whereby the first output variable in the d,q reference frame corresponds to the d or direct vector component as well as to a position estimation error, and the second output variable in the d,q reference frame corresponds to the q or quadrature component as well as to a speed estimation error, and the two output variables are fed to a tracking controller for estimating and outputting the position and/or speed, whereby from the motor model a third output variable is computed, by
