- Surface Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (SPMSMs) have gained significant attention in modern industrial, automotive, and aerospace applications due to their high efficiency, power density, and superior dynamic performance. This paper explores the fundamental principles, control strategies, and optimization techniques for SPMSMs. The study focuses on advanced vector control methods, i.e., Field-Oriented Control (FOC), to achieve precise torque and speed regulation. Additionally, to ensure the safety and reliability of EV motors, Active discharge strategies are focused. The paper also discusses a comparison of Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) and Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) techniques, where the maximum speed of the motor is achieved. The findings highlight the potential of SPMSMs in high-performance applications, emphasizing future research directions in energy-efficient and intelligent motor control systems.
