Abstract:
An electronic speed control system and method is disclosed to control motors that power a load. The electronic speed control system is configured to monitor the motors, accept user commands for the motors, to process these inputs along with various motor parameters and/or models, and to generate motor commands to send to the motors. A field oriented control method continuously monitors voltages and currents from each motor phase; accesses the motor parameters; uses a model of the motor to calculate motor rotor flux, angle and speed based on the stator voltages and currents and the motor parameters; and generates motor commands for controlling the motor based on the user commands and the calculated values. The electronic speed control system can also control external accessories, and/or communicate with external applications which can include a motor identification system that can provide the motor parameters and model for the motor.

Claim (Index 18):
The motor identification system of  claim 17 , wherein when the data entry selection is selected, the validation module comprises:\n an converter calibration module configured to perform an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) bias offset calibration to minimize measurement error of analog circuitry used to measure phase voltages and phase currents of the particular motor; an inductor time constant module configured to measure an inductor time constant for the particular motor, and to indicate validation failure if the inductor time constant is not within an acceptable range for the motor controller to properly commutate the particular motor; a stator resistance module configured to calculate a stator resistance for the particular motor; an activation module configured to ramp the particular motor up to a predetermined speed, to confirm that the particular motor is spinning, to verify actual motor speed of the particular motor, to measure magnetic flux and stator inductance while the particular motor is spinning, and to ramp the particular motor down to a zero speed; and a measurement confirmation module configured to validate that all of the measured and calculated motor parameters are within predetermined acceptable ranges, and to indicate validation failure if the measured and calculated motor parameters are not within the predetermined acceptable ranges.
