The document describes space vector modulation (SVM), an advanced switching algorithm for voltage source inverters that controls AC induction motors. SVM gives 15% more voltage output compared to sine PWM, improving voltage utilization and minimizing total harmonic distortion and switching losses. It represents the three-phase motor voltages as vectors in space and controls motor voltage and frequency by controlling the amplitude and frequency of the reference space vector. The SVM algorithm allows generating the maximum possible line-to-line voltage of the DC bus supply voltage, improving motor torque and dynamic response over sine PWM.
