2.1.2 Park Transformation

The Park Transformation transforms electrical signals from the two-axis orthogonal stationary reference frame (αβ) to the two-axis orthogonal rotating reference frame (dq) as shown in the following figure.

Figure 2-3. Park Transformation

The transform is expressed by the following equations:

I d = i α cos θ + i β sin θ
I q = i α sin θ + i β cos θ

Where:

iα and iβ are currents in two-axis orthogonal αβ reference frame,Id and Iq are currents in the two-axis orthogonal dq rotating reference frame.
