Regenerative braking in Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) drives plays a crucial role in improving the energy efficiency of electric vehicles by recovering kinetic energy during deceleration. This paper presents an approach using Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM)-based Field-Oriented Control (FOC) to boost the back electromotive force (back-EMF) voltage generated during regenerative braking. By exploiting the motor's inductance and the bidirectional capability of the inverter, the system functions as a boost converter, enabling effective energy transfer back to the energy storage system without the need for additional power electronics. The method focuses on analyzing the current behavior during braking and demonstrating improved voltage boosting to overcome the energy storage voltage barrier. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy in enhancing energy regeneration and extending driving range in electric vehicles. © 2025 IEEE.
