The sinusoidal PMSM based brushless motor drive typically requires rotor position detection. Encoders and/or resolvers are commonly used, which attribute to higher cost, low reliability (acoustic noise) Under certain conditions, like at high temperature, or at high speed rotation they may not be applicable. We have developed a Motor Control Algorithm (software) which calculates position and speed from motor current and voltage. It is utilised in compressor drive systems for air conditioning and other industrial applications.

The sinusoidal PMSM based brushless motor drive with vector control requires current feedback control with two of expensive hall current sensors . For consumer electronics, it is not cost effective and for low cost appliances, responsivity is low.
We developed current sensorless algorithm suitable for calculating AC currents from sampled DC-bus current data in the one-shunt system for over current protection. Our software technology and PWM technique make it possible to realize current detection method.
