This paper deals with the implementation of a sensorless control strategy devoted to Switched Reluctance Motor Drives used in the traction drive of a small truck. The sensorless technique operates at low and zero speed. In the proposed approach an additional high frequency magnetic field is injected into the machine and a suitable demodulation algorithm is exploited to extract useful information on the rotor position and speed. The feasibility of the implementation is verified by simulations.
