Vector Control of IPMSM used in Electric Vehicles

Electric traction motors are the most integral part of Electric Vehicles (EV). A high fidelity Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (IPMSM) commonly adopted in electrified powertrain is modelled. A closed loop control architecture of Field Oriented Control (FOC) is designed. The IPMSM operations against the real time environment using the Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) class 3 and New European Driving Cycle (NEDC) is experimented. The effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed scheme for nonlinear mathematical IPMSM model with complex dynamics are validated thorough extensive simulation experiments using MATLAB/Simulink.
