Considerations Regarding PWM Characteristics for Accurate Motor Control

Abstract

Since technology moved beyond micro, the accurate motor control became a challenge. Improvements were made at the level of each component of the motor controlling loop, but limitations still exist. The presented paper is focused on pulse width modulation, the most used method of conversion the computed digital signal into the analog voltage needed to excite the coils, in order to emphasize where limitations have to be overcome. In the end, some recommendations are made for improving the performances of the control loop.

“…The difference from our proposed architecture is that the authors use technologies off the shelf and their applications are in the motors drive. Some considerations in the field of motor drive are debated also in [12] by the authors of the present paper.…”
