FOC Control vs SVPWM
Here  is an excellent write-up I found on SVPWM.
From that site:
&quot;Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SV-PWM) is a modulation scheme used to apply a given voltage vector to a three-phased electric motor (permanent magnet or induction machine).
The goal is to use a steady state DC-voltage and by the means of six switches (e.g. transistors) emulate a three-phased sinusoidal waveform where the frequency and amplitude is adjustable. ...&quot;
An excellent animated vector diagram is provided on the above page. Unfortunately, the URL is too long for SE EE, and SE EE does not allow use of URL shorteners. A working link can be found in the comments below or by reconstituting https:// bit.ly/svpwmcontrol.
