This assignment examines the effectiveness of Direct Torque Control (DTC) and Field Oriented Control (FOC) strategies in controlling Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSMs). It delves into their individual characteristics, comparing dynamic performance aspects such as speed, torque, and current control. The study utilizes MATLAB/Simulink simulations to analyze and evaluate the performance of both DTC and FOC techniques applied to a PMSM. The aim is to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each strategy and determine their suitability for specific applications.
