Summary:A study on the torque ripple minimization of a voltage source inverter fed selfsynchronous machine is presented. This study is based on a design of a position sensor which allows us to suppress undesirable voltage harmonics and hence to minimize electromagnetic torque ripple. We use the optimized pulse width modulation (PWM) method as a basis for the design of this position sensor. Thus, the obtained inverter control circuit is a very simple design and there is no need for a microprocessor or for specialized PWM integrated circuits for its implementation. The obtained simulation results are compared with practical results for a self-controlled synchronous machine, using the classical control method and the proposed method.
