Abstract

In this paper Speed regulation of Brushless DC motor with PI speed controller is investigated and achieved for single speed transmission which is used to drive the electric vehicle. Speed regulationof the BLDC motor is achieved not only by using the inner current control loop but also by the outer current control loop by the PI controller through sensing the speed drive cycle.Analysis of the controlling schemes modelled in MATLAB/Simulink environment using Simulink shows that the small overshoots occur not only at fully charged battery but also at 80% and 50% state of charge.

Keywords
