Recently, high-performance BLDC(Brushless DC) motors are being applied to various fields such as industrial and personal mobility devices and drones. To achieve the best performance of BLDC, sensors such as hall sensors, encoders, and resolvers are used to determine the position of the rotor, and various speed control technologies are being developed. However, due to problems with high-speed control due to external environmental factors and frequency bandwidth of semiconductor sensing devices, research on BLDC motors without semiconductor sensing devices is in progress. Therefore, in this study, a signal brush was added to the end of the rotor of a BLDC motor and the rotor position of the BLDC motor was detected by analyzing the signal output through the signal brush.

This paper is presented for the development of the brushless DC(BLDC) motor for the spindle motor of hard disk drives(HDD). A new BLDC Motor has the use of insulated, compacted, and iron powder for the armature core material of BLDC motors. Insulated iron powder in this paper is generally called soft magnet composite(SMC). The SMC is used for the stator of the motor instead of the laminated steel core. The motor used by SMC can have the good advantages in condition of the high frequency input power and small sized motor. It gets much more high efficiency than laminated steel core at same input power. The proposed motor has a technique of speed sensorless control. Experimental results show the performance of the proposed BLDC motors for an HDD.

The position of stator is essential when a trapezoidal BLDC motor is drived. In this paper we proposed a novel sensorless drive system for the trapezoidal BLDC motor without hall sensors or encoders. The resistor Y-connecting method is used to obtain Back-emf of a trapezoidal BLDC motor. Especially, by using the new Back-emf filter circuit proposed in this paper the sensorless characteristic in low speed is improved. The prototype proposed system applied for a 100[W] rating BLDC motor is made and the propriety of the Back-EMF filter circuit is also verified.

This paper describes a fully digitalized driver for BLDC motors which is realized by a single chip microprocessor. The speed change can be done by using the signal obtained from the position detecting sensor and adjusting the pulse width at the input channel of power module. In order to establish a speed control system a repetitive control method is adopted to track a periodic refer-ence change in the BLDC motor system. The experimental results show accurate reference track-ing performance under the given periodic reference in the repetitive controller design.

BLDC motor is widely used as a servo motor due to high efficiency, high power density, low inertia, and low maintenance. However, BLDC motor generally needs position and velocity sensors to control actuation system. Usually, analog tachometers and encoders have been used for velocity feedback sensors. However, using these types of sensors have problems such as the cost, space, and malfunction. So, This paper is to propose a new velocity measurement method using linear hall-effect and enhanced differentiator for BLDC motor. In order to verify the feasibility of the proposed method, several simulations and experiments are performed. It is shown that the proposed velocity measurement method can satisfy the requirements without using of velocity sensor.

PC용 냉각장치의 일환으로 CPU의 외벽에 방열판을 달고 열전냉각모듈을 설치한 후 방열판을 냉각하기 위해서 펌프를 적용한 수냉식 냉각 시스템을 개발하고자 하였다. 먼저, 냉각 시 펌프의 부하를 설계하고 그 용량에 적절한 저소음, 고효율 BLDC 모터를 개발하고자, 상용화된 외국제품인 S사의 저효율 단상 BLDC 모터가 적용된 수냉식 펌프를 기준으로 하였다. S사의 단상 BLDC 모터에 대한 시뮬레이션과 테스트를 통해서 거의 비슷한 결과를 얻었으며, 이를 이용하여 단가가 다소 상승하더라도 효율과 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 3상 BLDC 모터구조로 설계를 하였으며, 그 결과 효율이 거의 2배 향상되며 출력 또한 향상됨을 시뮬레이션으로 구현하였다.

This paper presents a numerical optimization technique to reduce input current and torque ripple of the low voltage BLDC motor using core, coil and switching angle optimization. The optimization technique is employed using the generalized response surface method(RSM) and sampling minimization technique with FEM. A 50W 24V BLDC motor is used to verify the proposed algorithm. As optimizing results, the input current is reduced from 2.46 to 2.11[A], and the input power is reduced from 59 [W] to 51 [W] at the speed of 1000 [rpm]. Also, applied the same optimization algorithm, the torque ripple is reduced about 7.4 %. It is confirmed that the proposed technique is a reasonably useful tool to reduce the consuming current and torque ripple of the low voltage BLDC motor for a compact and efficient design.

This paper describes the design and implementation of a rehabilitation medical device based on a EMG measurement. Rehabilitation systems are controlled using BLDC motors and motor drives. The BLDC motor drive controls the operation and the speed controls the drive through the external servo motor. In addition, potentiometer coupled to the outside of the motor transmits information about the position of the load being rotated by the motor. The rehabilitation algorithm is controlled by limiting the maximum angle of 0 to 120 by utilizing the motor according to the user setting stage during the rehabilitation exercise. The walking algorithm compensates motor control for the low leg of the signal using the difference value of the signal obtained with the surface denser attached to both inner muscles. The motor and surface denser are utilized for the walk motion to control the maximum angle of 0 to 80.
