id and i q are handled independently. Since the comparison is

performed in the synchronous frame, motor AC frequency is not
seen. Thus, they are DC quantities!
Under normal conditions, we have all

Sinusoidal Modulation -
Limited Amplitude
• In sinusoidal modulation the amplitude is limited to half of the DC-bus voltage.
• The phase to phase voltage is then lower then the DC-bus voltage (although such
voltage can be generated between the terminals).

Full Phase-to-Phase Voltage Generation
• Full phase-to-phase voltage can be generated by continuously shifting the
3-phase voltage system.
• The amplitude of the first harmonic can be then increased by 15.5%.

How to Increase Modulation Index
• Modulation index is increased by adding the “shifting” voltage u0 to first harmonic.
• “Shifting” voltage u0 must be the same for all three phases, thus it can only contain
3r harmonics!

Too Much Flux???
The larger the flux, the higher the dλ/dt is for a given speed.
dλ/dt is voltage, so the back-EMF is higher for a given speed.
When the back-EMF amplitude reaches the bus voltage, current goes to zero.
When current goes to zero, torque goes to zero.
Therefore, the motor cannot go any faster…all because of too much flux.
