Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods for a multiple degree-of-freedom (DOF) motor system with reduced number of electromagnet control phases. The motor system includes a first body that is able to move relative to a second body along multiple DOFs. The first body has at least one magnetic positioner attached. The second body has a plurality of controlled electromagnets. Control signals, the total number of phases of which is less than half the total number of electromagnets, energize at least one of the controlled electromagnets to create magnetic interaction with at least one magnetic positioner on the first body, and to control the movement of the first body relative to the second body along designated dimension(s).

Claim (Index 1):
A multi-degree-of-freedom motor system, comprising:\n a rotor including a rotor body and a plurality of magnetic positioners coupled to the rotor body; a stator including a stator housing and a plurality of electromagnetic coils positioned within the stator housing; wherein the plurality of electromagnetic coils are arranged in a plurality of coil groups, each coil group including a predefined number of electromagnetic coils being arranged in a predefined pattern; and a controller for transmitting control signals to each of the plurality of electromagnetic coils, the controller configured to transmit the control signals including a number of driving signal phases that is less than a total number of electromagnetic coils included in the stator.
