Abstract In this paper, position sensorless control system of permanent magnet synchronous linear motor (PMSLM) based on sliding mode observer (SMO) with an improved phase-locked loop (PLL) is studied. Firstly, according to the mathematical model, a SMO is designed for sensorless control PMSLM drive. Thereafter, an improved PLL is proposed to tackle the imperfection of data overflow existed in the traditional PLL. The designed SMO incorporating with the improved PLL can be effectively suppress the pulsation of the estimated position and hence the chattering of the derived electrical angular velocity. At last, simulated and experimental results are presented to verify the… More >

Abstract In order to research biological cells, a well-established physical method can be used, that is electrorotation. To achieve electrorotation system, a signal oscillator or a signal generator is always needed. The signal generator is used for generating signals with phase shift and transfers it to the electro chamber. The frequency range of the output signal is generally between 20 Hz to 100 MHz for the signal generator, but for high frequency range, like 100 MHz to 1 GHz, the signal generator is hard to control and the linear properties for the output signal is not good enough to do the electrorotation. So design a… More >
