Abstract

In the field of speed regulation of special electric motors, the twenty-first century saw significant technical advancements. The speed regulation of sensorless brushless direct current (BLDC) motors using integer order proportional integral derivative (IOPID) and fractional order PID (FOPID) controllers, as well as various optimization techniques for determining the optimum tuning parameter. Based on optimal tuning controller parameters to achieve better time domain specifications. The rotor position is determined with the aid of electrical parameter measurements in the sensor less BLDC motor speed control system of rotor position detection. In several speed control applications, back EMF is calculated in the coils to infer rotor positions. Since conventional motors wear-prone brushes are being replaced with an electronic commutator and nonlinearity issues. In order to overcome the problem the sensorless BLDC motor is becoming increasingly common. This improves the closed loop drives efficiency and controllability. The phase response of time domain features such as the static and dynamic response for managing the speed of BLDC motors when perturbed from the outside was investigated in a unique examination of IOPID and FOPID controllers.
