What is Space Vector Modulation? (Episode 10)

Ever wondered "what is space vector modulation"? Well, this week we look at optimizing our voltage modulation method via space vector modulation (AKA SVM), as well as brushing up on some basic control ideas. Like, subscribe, share, tell Carol what you really think about her baby (reference to the video), but only if you feel like it.

Note on this video, I'm only presenting the alternate reverse SVM pattern. I feel like its the most broadly applicable, but if you have special cases, it may be worth looking into different SVM wave forms. I also feel like its easiest to show the parallels between it and sinusoidal modulation for understandings sake. Anyway, have a good one.

footnote:
You don't necessarily need an external hi res sensor for this, it is possible to run this system looking at back EMF for location, or running basically an observer that uses velocity estimations and hall effects.
