The invention discloses a position sensorless control method for a
switched reluctance motor, and belongs to the technical field of
motor control. According to the method, current chopping control is carried out in a conduction interval, low-threshold chopping control is carried out in a non-conduction interval, and the current
hysteresis width changes along with the rotation speed, so that the rotor position
estimation precision when the rotation speed is increased is ensured. According to the method, current information of each phase is collected, a current slope difference value is calculated, three-
phase inductance is obtained through calculation according to the current slope difference value, the
inductance obtained through calculation is compared with a preset
inductance threshold value, and on-off signals of each phase and pulse signals of
special position points can be obtained. According to the time interval between the rising edges of the adjacent position pulse signals and the corresponding rotor
position angle difference value, the real-time rotating speed of the motor is obtained through calculation, and the motor rotor position at any moment is estimated. The method is simple in structure and convenient to implement, is not affected by
inductance saturation, and is high in position
estimation reliability and universality.
