How I get my Q and R values of a Kalman filter for a good position estimation without only trial and error, are there ideas how choosing it, or methods?
I deduce that you are applying kalaman filter to a non linear system, and that you used a motor model, applied physical disturbance to approximate the noise with white Gaussian distribution to determine the initial values of Q and R in a trial and error methodology ..etc.
I have attached some links that will help you in IPMSM modeling and a good way to determine the Q and R. the 6th link is for autocovariance least squares package (estimation tool) that will help you determine noise covariance...
I have dealt with this issue myself and have published in this area. You can refer to my publication linked below. This paper presents a method for automatically and efficiently finding the best values for your Q, R matrices in addition to other adaptive parameters if you are using adaptive Kalman filters.

An IPMSM machine is a deterministic system and not a stochastic that's why we try to built a stochastic model of the IPMSM machine based on a determenistic model.All theses quantities Q , R is not an easy task to detirmine the best values.The only way is by trial and error methodologyis .There exists a systematic method to determine the initial quantities of Q and R backward in time from a final error criteria,but it is very difficult to solve theses problems (theses problems are called difference equations of two boundry conditions).
Thank you very much. It is an honour for me that you have answered here.
I read your papers about Observability Analysis of the EEMF-Model, it is fascinating, but as we know, the theory is good, at the test bench it looks different ;)
