| Summary: | In this paper, a novel sensorless control strategy based on the estimation of line back electro-motive force (BEMF) is proposed. According to the phase relationship between the ideal commutation points of the brushless direct current motor (BLDCM) and the zero-crossing points (ZCPs) of the line BEMF, the calculation formula of line BEMF is simplified properly and the commutation rule for different positions of the rotor is presented. The estimation error of line BEMF caused by the freewheeling current of silent phase is analyzed, and the solution is given. With the phase shift of the low-pass filter considered, a compensation method using “60°-α” and “120°-α” is studied in this paper to eliminate the error. Finally, the simulation and experimental results show that the rotor-position-detection error is reduced effectively and the motor driven by the accurate commutation signal can work well at low and high speed.
