Abstract :
Presents a control structure to minimize the energy consumed by a brushless DC (BLDC) motor during position tracking applications. Specifically, we illustrate how optimization techniques can be utilized to redesign the desired direct axis current trajectory in the control structure. This modification in the control structure reduces the energy consumed by the motor without interfering with rotor position tracking performance
