Purpose

– Extensive efforts have been conducted on the improvement of torque ripple in switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive. The purpose of this paper is to estimate initial on time of pulse-width modulation (PWM) and turn-off angle using the motor speed and rotor angle by fuzzy logic.

Design/methodology/approach

– A fuzzy logic control together with the PWM technique and turn-off angle are used to improve torque ripple and dynamic response.

Findings

– After determining initial on time of PWM, the rise slope of phase current is increased.

Research limitations/implications

– Future work will consider to increase the complex of the fuzzy control to adaptively tune parameters and achieve excellent results.

Practical implications

– The experimental results of the proposed method are presented to show the effectiveness.

Originality/value

– This paper achieves SRM control by one special PWM technique which is seldom studied.
