Abstract
Abstract: The main problem in improving the tracking performance of permanent magnet linear synchronous motors is the presence of force ripple caused by mismatched current excitation. This paper presents a method to optimize the current excitation of the motors in order to generate smooth force. The optimized phase current waveforms produce minimal ohmic losses and maximize motor efficiency. The current waveforms are valid for any velocity and any desired thrust force. The proposed optimization method consist of three stages. In every stage different harmonic waves of the force ripple are reduced. A comparison of the tracking performance with optimized waveforms and with sinusoidal waveforms shows the effectiveness of the method. 1
