Abstract

A compensating system for compensating a cogging torque of a motor includes a speed measuring apparatus, a moment of inertia measuring apparatus, a rotor position sensor, a processor, a plurality of band-pass filters, and a current control apparatus. The processor receives a speed, a moment of inertia, and a rotor position of the motor, to determine the cogging torque of the motor. Each band-pass filter is arranged with a different frequency to filter different frequencies of waveforms of the cogging torque. The processor determines a Fourier transformation of the cogging torque according to a number of Fourier coefficients from the band-pass filters, a cogging torque at a preset rotor position, and a cogging current according to the Fourier transformation of the cogging torque. The current control apparatus outputs a current opposite to the cogging current, to compensate the cogging torque of the motor.
