This paper describes a new method of detecting rotor position in switched reluctance motor(SRM). Some strategies of position sensorless control methods for the motor include the measurement of phase current and applied pulse voltage in an unexcited phase. The principle of the estimation of a rotor position is based on the detection of inductance by pulse currents. This sensorless method is very simple to compute rotor position estimation and gives efficient control of drive system. Suggested method is verified by some experimental tests.
