Abstract :
The technical viability of a magnetoresistive-based position sensor specifically suited to switched reluctance drives is demonstrated. The sensor provides a low cost simple robust solution to the problem of providing continuous speed dependent phase advance capabilities for switched reluctance drives. A control scheme using the sensor is discussed together with experimental and simulated results for a simple three phase SR drive. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the sensor and highlight the importance of phase angle control for switched reluctance drives
