The brushless dc (BLDC) motor has been increasingly used in industrial automation, automotive, aerospace, instrumentation and appliances. Analysis and design of the BLDC motor efficiently require its accurate model and parameters. In this paper, the parameter identification of the BLDC motor model via well-known metaheuristic optimization search techniques is proposed. Two trajectory-based methods, i.e. adaptive tabu search (ATS) and intensified current search (ICS) are employed to estimate the BLDC motor parameters. As simulation results of model identification and validation, both ATS and ICS can provide optimal BLDC model parameters. The BLDC models obtained show a very good agreement to actual system dynamics. However, the ICS can pro-vide optimal model parameters faster than the ATS.
