Direct Torque Control for Three-Phase Open-End Winding PMSM With Common DC Bus Based on Duty Ratio Modulation

This article introduces the classical direct torque control (DTC) to a three-phase open-end winding permanent magnet synchronous motor with common dc bus for the first time. The electromagnetic torque and the stator flux are controlled at the same time. However, the zero-sequence current is not suppressed, and the ripples of the electromagnetic torque and stator flux are large. To improve the operation performance of this drive system, a DTC based on a duty ratio modulation (DRM-DTC) is proposed. First, a deadbeat zero-sequence current controller is proposed in the DRM-DTC to suppress the zero-sequence current. Second, another strategy, which is based on a graphical analysis method and a simple deadbeat direct torque and flux controller, is proposed to optimize the duty ratio of the active voltage vector. Thus, the electromagnetic torque and stator flux ripples can be reduced. Finally, an optimized pulsewidth modulation implementation strategy is proposed in the DRM-DTC to further reduce the switching frequency of inverters. The classical DTC and the proposed DRM-DTC are compared through simulation and experiment, and the results verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.
