\subsection{Modeling of BLDC Motor}
The electromechanical model of a BLDC motor is foundational for understanding its behavior under different control
schemes. BLDC motors are categorized by their back-electromotive force (back-EMF) waveform: trapezoidal or sinusoidal.
This distinction is crucial, as the trapezoidal shape inherently leads to torque ripple when the supplied phase currents
are not perfectly aligned, directly influencing the choice and effectiveness of the control strategy
\cite{patil_analysis_2025}. For a BLDC motor with trapezoidal back-EMF, the electromagnetic torque is given by:
\[
T_e = \frac{e_a i_a + e_b i_b + e_c i_c}{\omega_m}
\]
where \( e_x \) is the back-EMF and \( i_x \) is the phase current \cite{li_quantitative_2019}. The classical d-q
reference frame model, ideal for sinusoidal machines, is less suitable for trapezoidal BLDC motors because it assumes
sinusoidal flux distribution. Phase-variable modeling in the natural (abc) frame is therefore more appropriate, as it
directly accounts for the non-sinusoidal, trapezoidal nature of the back-EMF and the associated harmonics
\cite{mohammd_taher_new_2021}.
\subsection{Trapezoidal Commutation (Six-Step Control) for BLDC Motors}
% Trapezoidal commutation, or six-step control, uses Hall-effect sensors to synchronize phase current switching every
% 120 electrical degrees.
Trapezoidal commutation, or Six-Step control, uses bipolar conduction, with two motor phases conducting at any time and
current commutation occurring every 120 electrical degrees \cite{gieras_modern_2023}. As commutation depends on rotor
position, Six-Step control requires either position sensors (e.g. Hall sensors, encoders, or resolvers) or sensorless
estimation based on back-EMF detection or observers \cite{gieras_modern_2023, gasc_conception_2004}. This method is
renowned for its simplicity of implementation and low hardware cost \cite{bhatiya_bldc_2024}. It enables effective
torque control but introduces significant torque ripple during commutation events, especially under high load
\cite{jomsa-nga_torque_2024}. This ripple generates noise, increases mechanical stress, and reduces overall efficiency
\cite{mohammd_taher_new_2021}. Although PWM techniques can mitigate this ripple, they do not completely eliminate it
\cite{li_quantitative_2019}.
\subsection{Field-Oriented Control (FOC) for BLDC Motors}
FOC is a vector control strategy that decouples the stator flux and torque components. It transforms three-phase
currents into orthogonal \( I_d \) and \( I_q \) components, enabling precise torque control and significant ripple
reduction \cite{jomsa-nga_torque_2024}. FOC is particularly effective for BLDC motors with sinusoidal back-EMF but can
also be applied to trapezoidal back-EMF motors, albeit with less impressive ripple suppression results
\cite{li_quantitative_2019}. It requires greater computational power and more precise position sensors (e.g. encoders).
Comparative analysis shows that FOC yields a more stable stator current profile and significantly reduces torque
variations compared to trapezoidal control \cite{patil_analysis_2025}.
\subsection{Comparative Analysis: FOC vs. Trapezoidal for Light Electric Vehicles}
\subsubsection{Torque Ripple and User Comfort}
Firstly, torque ripple can be reduced for both control methods by selecting appropriate motor parameters, such as the
number of stator slots and rotor poles \cite{gasc_conception_2004}.
FOC substantially reduces torque ripple compared to Six-Step control, directly enhancing ride comfort and minimizing
vibrations. Experimental results show a torque ripple of \SI{18.38}{\percent} for FOC versus \SI{35.67}{\percent} for
Six-Step control at \SI{500}{\rpm} \cite{jomsa-nga_torque_2024}.
Commutation torque ripple (CTR), prominent in Six-Step control, can be specifically targeted and mitigated using
advanced control techniques like Model Predictive Control (MPC) while retaining the fundamental simplicity of
trapezoidal commutation \cite{mohammd_taher_new_2021}.
\subsubsection{Energy Efficiency}
FOC optimizes torque per ampere (MTPA), improving efficiency at low loads. Six-Step control exhibits lower switching
losses at high speeds \cite{li_quantitative_2019}.
\subsubsection{Complexity, Cost, and Low-Tech Suitability}
Six-Step control is inherently simpler, cheaper, and more robust, making it a prime candidate for low-tech applications.
Research focused on reducing propulsion system costs proposes simplified hardware topologies, such as 4-switch inverters
(instead of 6) coupled with direct current control strategies, maintaining acceptable performance while significantly
lowering hardware costs \cite{lee_advanced_2001}. FOC, while superior in performance, is more complex to implement and
carries higher hardware costs (sensors, processing power).
\subsubsection{Dynamic Response}
FOC provides faster response times and better load disturbance rejection \cite{jomsa-nga_torque_2024}.
