Abstract

Methods, systems, and apparatuses for real-time synchronization techniques for rectification of resolver feedbacks are provided. Various embodiments of the present disclosure include generating a synchronized rectification sign signal in real-time, aligned to an external delay, using a sign of modulated feedback waves. Various embodiments may include a process for reconstructing the sign by dynamically selecting the larger signal (in absolute value) of at least one sine signal and at least one cosine signal.
