Control of a brushless permanent magnet machine using an integrated torque sensor in place of a rotor position sensor

The work presented in this thesis proposes the use of measured torque feedback from an integrated, low cost surface acoustic wave (SAW) torque transducer in place of a position sensor to control brushless permanent magnet (BLPM) machines. The BLPM machine closed loop control requires knowledge of th...
