(Abstract) In order to reduce the size and complexity of the driving circuit of the self-bearing motor, this paper proposes a magnetically levitated shaded pole induction motor. The rotor is still supported by magnetic force, but the motor has a very simple structure because magnetic levitation and rotation can be achieved with only one amplifier. The suspension force and rotational torque have been analysed by FEM magnetic field analysis. A simple experimental setup using a rotor of a commercial shaded pole induction motor was designed and fabricated. Although it had not succeeded in levitation control, the rotation control in the situation where perpendicular and horizontal movement of the rotor was restricted was successful.
