This paper describes back-emf-based sensorless field-oriented control (FOC) of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) of surface-mounted type, employing neural-network-based controller for current and speed control. The dynamic response is improved. Further, rotor position is estimated by back-emf method. To overcome the shortcoming of back-emf-based control in zero and low speed, a start-up strategy is proposed, to predict the initial rotor position. The PMSM drive model is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink environment, and the results show improved dynamic response with a start-up strategy.
