The variable reluctance motor (VRM) is known for its structural simplicity, lower cost and capability of higher specific outputs compared with the AC induction motor. These favourable attributes arise from the way the torque is generated. An asymmetric half bridge would commonly be used as the controller for the VRM. It is also a relatively simple circuit because unlike the requirement with an AC induction motor, the imput current for a VRM would only need to be able to travel in one direction.
