Abstract
The article discusses the significance of high-performing Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) in industries such as transportation, robotics, and industrial sectors due to their small size, high efficiency, and fast responsiveness. Field Oriented Control (FOC) is used in PMSM drives to achieve high-performance control of the motor by transforming three-phase AC currents and voltages into two orthogonal components. The article explains the two common Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) methods used in FOC PMSM drives: Sinusoidal PWM (SPWM) and Space Vector PWM (SVPWM). The paper evaluates the performance of FOC-based PMSM with inverter drives using SPWM and SVPWM under dynamic speed and load disturbance conditions to determine a reliable PWM inverter drive for PMSM FOC applications.
