Abstract

A permanent-magnet-synchronous electric motor control device includes: a reference voltage value calculation unit for calculating a reference voltage value; an output voltage value calculation unit for calculating an output voltage value on the basis of a voltage command; a current weakening command calculation unit for calculating a current weakening command on the basis of the reference voltage value and the output voltage value; a voltage command calculation unit for calculating the voltage command on the basis of the current weakening command; and a power converter for supplying power to a permanent-magnet-synchronous electric motor on the basis of the voltage command. The current weakening command calculation unit calculates the current weakening command in which a high-frequency component is amplified on the basis of the difference between the reference voltage value and the output voltage value.
