Abstract
In one example embodiment, a motor control unit includes a processor configured to tune a current regulator regulating a supply of electrical current to an electric motor by determining a plurality of variables, the plurality of variables including a stator resistance value, a first inductance value and a second inductance value, the stator resistance value being a resistance value of a stator of the electric motor, the first inductance value being a d-axis inductance of the electric motor and the second inductance value being a q-axis inductance of the electric motor. The processor is further configured to tune the current regulator by determining a plurality of gains based on the determined plurality of variables and generating current commands for operating the electric motor based on the determined plurality of gains.
