Hi,
I'm trying to understand how the back EMF voltage of a motor can be higher than the bus during regeneration.
During normal motor operation with speed omega, the back EMF voltage is lower than the bus voltage. However, when the motor becomes a generator during regen braking, the bus voltage increases (assuming small bulk cap), which implies that the motor's back EMF voltage is higher than the bus. Does this imply that the rotational speed of motor is faster during regeneration/braking than during normal motor operation?
I did some research but it's not very clear from what I found:

Please explain
Thanks
