In this paper an active power filter is presented based on a multilevel converter. The active power filter is intended to be used in domestic applications where reactive power compensation in two-phase networks is required. An innovative technique to balance the DC bus voltages of the power converter capacitors is proposed and also an estimation algorithm for those voltages is developed, allowing...
The paper introduces a new scheme to track the rotor position of an induction motor. The scheme uses the measurement of current derivatives during null switching vectors of a standard PWM scheme and reduces the minimum pulse widths required to allow high frequency switching oscillations to die down. The motor current distortion is therefore also reduced. The method uses H-Bridges connected in series...
<para> A prototype 1.5 MW series-stacked converter system was built and installed at a dc traction substation. The converter inverts energy generated by slowing an electric train using regenerative braking. The regenerated energy is fed into the local ac network at the dc substation. A secondary function of the converter is to perform active power filtering (APF) while a train is drawing power...
This paper deals with a new topology for a multi - level - converter without a multi - winding input transformer. By means of this topology, converter with an increased number of voltage steps can be easily realised. The number of valves is smaller than that of actual techniques. Additionally the paper compares the multi - level - PWM with the optimised pulse sequences.
