description In this paper, an improved sensorless vector control method for an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drive with small DC-link capacitors is proposed. First, a fast sliding-mode observer was applied, to enlarge the observer bandwidth. Then, an improved estimator based on a proportional integral resonant controller was designed for the estimate speed shaping, which means the actual speed can be tracked. This not only reduces the position estimate error, but also enhances the grid power factor and suppresses the input current harmonics. Simulation and experiments were conducted on a sensorless IPMSM drive system with a small film capacitor. The effectiveness of the proposed estimation method was verified by the simulation and experimental results. The estimated error was reduced and the grid current harmonics satisfy the requirements of EN61000-3-2.
