  • Abstract
    Rotor position information is critical to proper operation of a switched reluctance motor (SRM). In this paper two methods of indirect rotor position detection are presented that are compatible with alternative switching topologies. These methods are both based on amplitude modulation of an injected signal according to the phase inductance variation. An analysis of these methods along with experimental results is presented in this paper.
