Assignee:
Wavecrest Laboratories, LLC - Dulles VA
International Classification:
H02P029/00
US Classification:
318439, 318138, 318254, 318724, 310259, 310216
Abstract:
Subject to user or system selection, one of the motor control schemes is accessed from the memory by a controller for implementation. The controller generates control signals that are applied to energization circuitry for supplying current to the phase windings with a particular current waveform profile in accordance with the selected motor control scheme. The controller has an input terminal for receiving a user initiated torque command signal representing a desired motor torque. Each motor control scheme provides motor driving current that corresponds to torque command signals received at the controller input terminal.

A control system is provided for a multiphase motor having a plurality of stator phase components, each stator phase component comprising a phase winding formed on a core element, and a rotor. A plurality of motor control schemes are stored in memory or calculated dynamically during motor operation. Subject to user or system selection, one of the motor control schemes is selected by a controller for implementation. The controller generates control signals that are applied to energization circuitry for supplying current to the phase windings with a particular current waveform profile in accordance with the selected motor control scheme. The controller has an input terminal for receiving a user initiated torque command signal representing a desired motor torque. Each motor control scheme provides motor driving current that corresponds to torque command signals received at the controller input terminal. In an automatic mode, the controller accesses the appropriate control scheme to meet the torque tracking requirements of the system.

Fault-Tolerant Electric Motor Control System

US Patent:
6949908, Sep 27, 2005
Filed:
Oct 6, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/678133
Inventors:
Boris A. Maslov - Reston VA, US
Guohui Yuan - Gaithersburg MD, US
Assignee:
Wavecrest Laboratories, LLC - Dulles VA
International Classification:
H02P001/24
US Classification:
318727, 318434, 318439, 318801
Abstract:
The present invention offers a novel control system for a multiphase motor. The control system involves energization circuitry for energizing each phase winding, and a control circuit for defining phase currents for individual phases of the motor to generate control signals applied to the energization circuitry for energization of the phase windings. When at least one phase of the motor fails, a mode selection circuit enables the control circuit to operate either in a non-correction mode or in a fault-correction mode. In the non-correction mode of operation, phase currents for phases that remain operational are maintained unmodified. In the fault-correction mode, the phase currents for the remaining phases are modified in accordance with pre-set parameters.

Apr 26, 2004
Appl. No.:
10/831102
Inventors:
Boris A. Maslov - Reston VA, US
Guohui Yuan - Gaithersburg MD, US
International Classification:
H02P 7/00
US Classification:
318432, 318254, 318138, 318439, 318700

10/431430
Inventors:
Boris Maslov - Reston VA, US
Guohui Yuan - Greenbelt MD, US
Assignee:
WAVECREST LABORATORIES, LLC
International Classification:
H02K023/16
H02K023/18
H02K023/44
H02K037/00
US Classification:
318/437000
Abstract:
A novel cruise control system is provided for adaptively controlling an electric vehicle to maintain desired speed under variable driving conditions. This system utilizes multiple motor control scheme for controlling the motor using various waveform profiles of the control current, and involves phase advance angle adjustment provided for adaptively controlling a phase advance angle between the control current and back-EMF in response to changes in driving conditions to produce the control current sufficient to achieve the desired speed.

Software-Based Adaptive Control System For Electric Motors And Generators

View page
US Patent:
20050046375, Mar 3, 2005
Filed:
Dec 17, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/736791
Inventors:
Boris Maslov - Reston VA, US
John Salatino - Dulles VA, US
Guohui Yuan - Gaithersburg MD, US
International Classification:
H02P005/06
US Classification:
318650000
Abstract:
A control system for motors, generators and other electric machines that improves machine performance by dynamically adapting to changes. These changes may be in user inputs, machine operating conditions and/or machine operating parameters. The control system can take advantage of more independent machine parameters. That gives greater freedom to optimize and allows motors and generators to perform better than bigger, heavier machines, particularly more efficiently. The control system is software-based. So standard interfaces allow the control system to be improved and updated without changing hardware. This adaptive control system improves performance in a wide variety of motor and generator applications, particularly those that need high efficiency over varying conditions.
