摘要
本文介绍了一种易于制造、全圆范围(0°-360°)、基于平面线圈的可变磁阻(VR)角度传感器,具有更高的线性度。拟议的传感器系统旨在缓解现有 VR 角度传感器的局限性,特别是其固有的传感器输出特性所导致的有限精度和非线性。通过精心设计线圈的几何形状以实现均匀的磁通量分布,并采用简单的半圆形转子,该传感器系统的性能和线性度都得到了提高。拟议的传感器采用了一个半圆形转子板(RP),置于两块印刷电路板(PCB)之间,每块印刷电路板有四个线圈。这些线圈经过精心设计,可确保电感随 RP 位置的线性变化,从而提高传感器输出的线性度。通过分析方法和有限元分析(FEA)对传感器设计进行验证后,开发出一种合适的算法,用于准确估算转子角度。为评估传感器系统的性能,制造了一个传感器原型。原型显示出极佳的线性度,最坏情况下误差为 0.31%,分辨率为 0.11°。传感器对轴的轴向偏差和外部磁性物体的灵敏度几乎可以忽略不计,突出了该系统的实用性。
A Variable Reluctance-Based Planar Dual-Coil Angle Sensor With Enhanced Linearity
An easy-to-fabricate, full circle range (0°–360°), planar coil-based variable reluctance (VR) angle transducer with enhanced linearity is presented in this article. The proposed sensor system aims to mitigate the limitations of the existing VR angle sensors, particularly their limited accuracy and nonlinearity, resulting from the inherent sensor output characteristics. By carefully designing the coil geometry to achieve uniform flux distribution and implementing a simple semicircular-shaped rotor, the sensor system offers enhanced performance and linearity. The proposed sensor employs a semicircular-shaped rotor plate (RP) placed between two printed circuit board (PCBs) with four coils each. These coils are strategically designed to ensure a linear variation of inductance with respect to the RP position, resulting in improved linearity in the sensor output. After validating the sensor design through analytical methods and finite-element analysis (FEA), a suitable algorithm was developed for accurately estimating the rotor angle. A sensor prototype was manufactured to evaluate the performance of the sensor system. The prototype showed an excellent linearity with a worst case error of 0.31% and a resolution of 0.11°. The sensor shows negligible sensitivity to axial misalignment of the shaft and the presence of external magnetic objects, highlighting the practical usefulness of the system.
