Abstract :
This paper provides a basic tutorial on SRMs, how they are controlled, and potential applications. A review of the equations governing the operation of the SRM is given and the operation of the SRM is described. Current control, commutation algorithms, and techniques for reducing torque ripple and linearizing the SRM torque response are discussed. Algorithms which allow motor operation without aid of a shaft position sensor are introduced
