The sensors required for this measurement must be close to the rotor, often requiring constructive measures that may limit the application potential of a drive. This publication presents the estimation of rotor angle and position, based on Hall-effect sensors installed on a slotless bearingless drive. This scheme enables sensor mounting away from the rotor, thus simplifying its encapsulation.Magnetic bearingsSensorPermanent magnet motorMotion Controltext::conference output::conference proceedings::conference paper
