The objective of this work is to reduce the torque ripple and vibration in Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) drives. To achieve such a goal, a two-step approach is proposed. In the first step, the reference current is profiled using an optimization method, aimed to reduce the torque pulsation. In the second, the optimum current profile is applied to the SRM through an adaptive hysteresis band controller to actively cancel the radial vibration. The proposed technique uses an optimization procedure based on the Field Reconstruction Method (FRM) and Non-Derivative Optimization Method to find the optimal current profile that mitigates the torque pulsation, however, the investigation has shown that the proposed excitation leads to a higher radial vibration, which has been mitigated by using an adaptive hysteresis band controller. The theoretical basis for the proposed approach is initially presented, followed by system modeling and simulation. In addition, experimental verification has been conducted using an 8/6 SRM to show the feasibility of the proposed approach. The proposed method alleviates the acoustic noise and torque pulsation in SRM and offers an effective step towards the prevalent use of SRM in a wide range of applications.
