“…The influence of the rotor structure on the torque characteristic was also evaluated using 3D-FEM. Reference [252] presents a synchronous homopolar motor, which is suitable for sensorless operation over its entire speed range, including zero speed. This ability is necessary for the traction drives, the reliability of which is currently limited due to the presence of the rotor position encoder needed for operation at low speeds.…”

The rapid consumption of fossil fuel and increased environmental damage caused by it have given a strong impetus to the growth and development of fuelefficient vehicles. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs) have evolved from their inchoate state and are proving to be a promising solution to the serious existential problem posed to the planet earth. Not only do HEVs provide better fuel economy and lower emissions satisfying environmental legislations, but also they dampen the effect of rising fuel prices on consumers. HEVs combine the drive powers of an internal combustion engine and an electrical machine. The main components of HEVs are energy storage system, motor, bidirectional converter and maximum power point trackers (MPPT, in case of solar-powered HEVs). The performance of HEVs greatly depends on these components and its architecture. This paper presents an extensive review on essential components used in HEVs such as their architectures with advantages and disadvantages, choice of bidirectional converter to obtain high efficiency, combining ultracapacitor with battery to extend the battery life, traction motors' role and their suitability for a particular application. Inclusion of photovoltaic cell in HEVs is a fairly new concept and has been discussed in detail. Various MPPT techniques used for solar-driven HEVs are also discussed in this paper with their suitability.

“…Thus, feedback for controlling the electric machine, which is delivered by a rotor shaft sensor, can be separated into two signal types: the rotor speed signal when applying an IM and the rotor position information when utilizing a PMSM. Sensorless control, as it is often found in the literature [2,3], is not used in automotive powertrains due to high demands on control reliability and is therefore not discussed further in detail here.…”

Rotor shaft position sensors are required to ensure the efficient and reliable control of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM), which are often applied as traction motors in electrified automotive powertrains. In general, various sensor principles are available, e.g., resolvers and inductive- or magnetoresistive sensors. Each technology is characterized by strengths and weaknesses in terms of measurement accuracy, space demands, disturbing factors and costs, etc. Since the most frequently applied technology, the resolver, shows some weaknesses and is relatively costly, alternative technologies have been introduced during the past years. This paper investigates state-of-the-art position sensor technologies and compares their potentials for use in PMSM in automotive powertrain systems. The corresponding evaluation criteria are defined according to the typical requirements of automotive electric powertrains, and include the provided sensor accuracy under the influence of mechanical tolerances and deviations, integration size, and different electrical- and signal processing-related parameters. The study presents a mapping of the potentials of different rotor position sensor technologies with the target to support the selection of suitable sensor technologies for specified powertrain control applications, addressing both system design and components development.

“…Encoderless (or self‐sensing) control has received much attention in the last decade for design of electric drive systems. Many investigations have been recently conducted in order to implement the self‐sensing approach into control systems for various electrical machines including induction motors [1], permanent magnet synchronous motors [2, 3], synchronous reluctance motors [4], switched reluctance drives [5] etc. The operation principle of self‐sensing control strategies is based on analysis of motor saliency using measurement of phase inductance.…”
