Sensorless control of BLDC motor

This thesis is focused on the sensorless control of BLDC motor using the Extended Kalman filter. In the first section, process of EKF implementation for estimating rotor speed and electrical angle is described. For this estimation, EKF uses non-linear BLDC motor model and some measurement containing random noise. Second part deals with designing methodology to measure and estimate the quality of BLDC motor sensorless control. Best results were achieved with total current entering power electronics ripple analyzation. In the last section, several BLDC sensorless control algorithms were evaluated
