An experimental system for controlling AC induction motors using Field Oriented Control (FOC) strategies is presented. FOC Theory requires control loops for statoric currents and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques for controlling the power inverter. This work covers both items and summarizes the fundamentals of FOC theory. The general architecture of the system and the IGBT power inverter are also described.
