2018 IEEE 9th International Symposium on Sensorless Control for Electrical Drives (SLED)

The symposium solicits original technical papers. Topic areas for consideration include:

• Signal-injection-based and back-emf-based sensorless methods
• Sensorless self-commissioning and parameter adaptation
• Sensorless methods for special machines (multiphase, bearingless, etc.)
• Design of electrical machines for sensorless operation
• Replacing or augmenting existing sensors (current, voltage, temperature) with observers
• Condition monitoring for the converter, motor, or load without extra sensors
• Sensorless and signal-injection-based methods applied to grid-connected converters
• Emerging applications for sensorless drives
• Role of emerging technologies (such as industrial internet and 5G) in control, monitoring, and self-commissioning of sensorless drives
