Abstract: Brushless DC Motor drives have made a successful entrance into various sectors of industry such as aerospace, automotive and home appliances due to its simple structure. The accurate knowledge of the rotor position is required for good performance of brushless DC motors the need for the rotor angle information in BLDC has been satisfied by use of some form of rotor position sensor. The position sensor used in BLDC drives have the disadvantages of additional cost, electrical connections, mechanical alignment problems, and disadvantage of being inherent source of unreliability. These bottlenecks results in several sensor less technique in recent years. A proposed sensor less scheme is used to overcome the disadvantages of sensored scheme. The rotor position detection can be estimated even at standstill and running conditions. The methods which is proposed in this project is 1. Back EMF ZCD 2. RF Injection method.
