A space vector pulse‐width modulation (PWM) technique for a two‐level asymmetrical six‐phase drive is proposed for the first time in this study. The PWM technique is developed based on the modified vector space decomposition approach. The details regarding the process of choosing the switching sequences and the calculation of dwell times are presented. The PWM technique is verified through simulation using PLECSsoftware and is further validated experimentally. Obtained results show the validity of the proposed PWM technique.
