Current Tracking Adaptive Control of Brushless DC Motors
International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing, EarlyView.In this paper, the current tracking for Brushless Direct Current motors is approached considering uncertainty in the parameters of the motor's model. An adaptive control scheme to compensate electrical parameters uncertainty is proposed without requiring any knowledge of the mechanical parameters.
