The Impact of FPGA Clocking Time on the Accuracy of DC Motor Speed Estimation

Abstract

Two problems are considered in the paper. One of them applies to sensorless drive with a DC motor, which uses Kalman filtering. The second problem concerns the description of performed investigations of sampling frequency effect for precision of speed estimation. The investigations concern the simulation of different cases of sensorless drive operation. The analysis regarding the speed estimation precision at voltage and load torque jumps for a different value of sample time has been performed. The speed determined directly from a mathematical model of motor is the base value for comparison.
