Sensorless control of switched reluctance motors (SRMs) often requires a hybrid mode combining low-speed pulse injection methods and high-speed model-based estimation. However, pulse injection causes unwanted audible noises and torque ripples.

Investigation of Motor Current Signature Analysis in Detecting Unbalanced Motor Windings of an Induction Motor with Sensorless Vector Control Drive [PDF]
Maintaining the efficiency of AC motors in site equipment is important, given the increasing cost of energy. Reduction of motor efficiency from baseline manufacturer data can go undetected until total failure of the equipment is experienced.

Voltage Sensorless Grid-Forming Power Converters
During the years, synchronization systems in power converter control has been mainly used for estimating the phase angle and the magnitude of the grid voltage, this estimated information is usually used for droop control strategies to ensure power sharing among power converters.

Are seizure forecasts and cycles better than chance? What chance?
Abstract Objective There is a growing synergy between the lines of research on cycles in epilepsy and seizure forecasting. It has been conjectured, for instance, that incorporating information about significant seizure cycles into forecasting algorithms can lead to a better‐than‐chance forecasting performance.

Cost-Effective Predictive Flux Control for a Sensorless Doubly Fed Induction Generator
The paper introduces a cost effective predictive flux control (PFC) approach for a sensorless doubly fed induction generator (DFIG). The base operation of the proposed PFC depends on controlling the rotor flux (α-β) components using a cost ...

Robust Sensorless Model-Predictive Torque Flux Control for High-Performance Induction Motor Drives
This paper introduces a novel sensorless model-predictive torque-flux control (MPTFC) for two-level inverter-fed induction motor (IM) drives to overcome the high torque ripples issue, which is evidently presented in model-predictive torque control (MPTC).

Design of a Hydroelectronic Solar‐Tracking System for Solar Panels
A prototype of a passive solar‐tracking system utilizing buoyant force based on water level was developed, and its MATLAB/Simulink model was implemented. This study is expected to encourage researchers to design solar‐tracking mechanisms using metals with different thermal expansion coefficients, air, oil, and other fluids. ABSTRACT This study presents

An analysis of the benefits of signal injection for low-speed sensorless control of induction motors
We analyze why low-speed sensorless control of the IM is intrinsically difficult, and what is gained by signal injection. The explanation relies on the control-theoretic concept of observability applied to a general model of the saturated IM.
