Popis: Since an existing 3-phase inner rotor torque actuator (TA) has severe torque ripples, it is not appropriate for a gimbal system that requires precise position control. Therefore, a coreless TA is considered to eliminate the core causing torque ripples. In order to compensate for several problems (e.g., problems of production structures and output degradation) when a coreless type is used, the final 2-phase outer rotor is proposed for the low vibration and high power TA in the gimbal system. To control the 2-phase TA applied to such the gimbal system, special inverter control methods, such as bi-directional drive for tilting control and control for output torque improvement, are required. The 2-phase 3-leg inverter is free of DC capacitor voltage unbalance compared to the 2-leg inverter, and is economical because it uses less power switches than the 4-leg inverter. Therefore, the 2-phase 3-leg inverter is applied to drive the 2-phase outer rotor coreless TA of a hybrid gimbal system, and it is verified through simulation.
