Abstract:
A method and a parameter estimation system are provided for controlling an electrical machine, (e.g., an induction motor), powered by a drive unit. The method and the parameter estimation system disclosed herein detect a travelling wave generated on a linking element disposed between a first connection point, which is at least one terminal of the electrical machine, and a second connection point, which is at least one terminal of the drive unit. Further, the method and the parameter estimation system disclosed herein obtain at least one of a plurality of wave characteristics associated with the travelling wave, (e.g., an amplitude, a width, a frequency, a travel time of the travelling wave). Further, the method and the parameter estimation system disclosed herein determine one or more control parameters, (e.g., an operational torque and speed), of the electrical machine based on at least one of the wave characteristics.

Claim (Index 8):
A parameter estimation system for controlling an electrical machine powered by a drive unit, the parameter estimation system comprising:\n a non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing computer program instructions defined by modules of the parameter estimation system; at least one processor communicatively coupled to the non-transitory computer readable storage medium, the at least one processor configured to execute the defined computer program instructions; and the modules of the parameter estimation system comprising:\n a wave management module configured to: (1) detect a travelling wave generated on a linking element disposed between a first connection point and a second connection point, wherein the first connection point comprises at least one terminal of the electrical machine and the second connection point comprises at least one terminal of the drive unit, and (2) obtain at least one wave characteristic of a plurality of wave characteristics associated with the travelling wave, wherein the at least one wave characteristic comprises an amplitude of the travelling wave, a width of the travelling wave, a frequency of the travelling wave, or a combination thereof; and \n a parameter determination module configured to determine one or more control parameters of the electrical machine based on the at least one wave characteristic, wherein the control parameters of the electrical machine comprise a control action associated with the electrical machine.
