A Comparative Study of Sinusoidal PWM and Space Vector PWM of a Vector Controlled BLDC Motor

Lydia Anu Jose, K. B.Karthikeyan

This paper focuses on the vector control of a BLDC motor with two different concepts of Pulse Width Modulation- the Sinusoidal PWM and the Space Vector Modulation strategy. The paper deals with the basics of a BLDC motor, its dynamic modeling and its speed control using two different strategies of Pulse Width Modulation. The vector control is one of the methods used in variable frequency drives or variable speed drives to control the torque (and thus the speed) of three-phase AC electric motors by controlling the current. The results prove that the Space Vector Modulation technique helps to improve the performance and thus the efficiency of the system.
