1. A method of controlling an alternating current (ac) machine, the method comprising:
- determining or retrieving a current limit for the ac machine;
determining a characterized peak current value based on a voltage-to-speed ratio of the ac machine;
determining a torque command limit based on the characterized peak current value and the current limit;
determining current command values for the ac machine based on at least one of the torque command limit and a torque command for the ac machine; and
controlling the ac machine based on the current command values.
