Abstract

Systems and methods for controlling an induction motor including detecting a field weakening operation state of the motor, wherein the field weakening operation state is detected when a flux current, Id, in the motor is reduced to a predetermined fraction of its normal, non-voltage limited value. The systems and methods also including an overmodulation operation state of the motor before said field weakening operation state is detected and enabling the overmodulation operation state of the motor after said field weakening operation state is detected.
