Popis: Low-order odd current harmonics arise in practical multiphase drives due to machine and converter nonlinear behavior (e.g., deadtime and flux saturation). If the windings are distributed, some harmonics cause torque ripple, whereas others produce losses. The latter is aggravated by the small impedance in the no-torque subspaces. Current harmonics can be compensated without steady-state error by proportional–integral controllers in multiple synchronous frames (SFs); however, a heavy computational load is required. In three-phase systems, the computational burden of this multiple SF (MSF) scheme is often avoided by implementing instead resonant controllers (RCs) tuned at the harmonics that are multiples of six in an SF rotating with the fundamental frequency. A similar structure has been proposed for nonlinearities compensation in asymmetrical six-phase machines. This paper extends this multiple RC (MRC) strategy to symmetrical machines of any phase number. The optimum frequencies for the RCs and for the SF in each plane, so that the number of RCs is minimized, are established. Then, the computational load of the resulting generic MRC scheme is assessed and compared with that of the MSF structure. The conditions in which the former is particularly preferable over the latter are identified. Experimental results are provided.
