A motor control system and associated method includes a transform component configured to receive current values associated with a motor being driven by the motor control system, and output rotating coordinate system values representing a flux generating component and a torque generating component of a current space vector. The motor control system and method further includes a control component configured to receive the flux generating component and the torque generating component of the current space vector, and generate motor control signals for driving the motor by performing a Cartesian to polar transform to obtain values associated with a rotating coordinate system followed by an angle addition to convert the rotating coordinate system values to values of a stationary coordinate system.
