Nowadays, there is an increasing interest toward multiphase drives, particularly for medium- and high-power applications. In this paper, some modulation strategies for multiphase voltage-source inverters are compared and the modulation strategy with the minimum switching losses is determined. If the switching devices of the inverter are insulated-gate bipolar transistors or bipolar junction transistors,...
Z-source inverter and traditional two-stage buck-boost inverter are compared with respect to the voltage stress and maximum current stress of semiconductor devices and the inverter efficiency in grid-tied renewable energy generation application. The operation principles of the two inverters are introduced firstly, considering the two different PWM strategies used in Z-source inverter. Based on the...
This paper describes improvement of Z-source inverter (ZSI) properties possible due to advanced PWM methods. Switching conditions and distribution of semiconductor power losses in the ZSI are analyzed. Two new PWM methods are proposed, including Asymmetric Optimized Switching Type (AOST) with efficiency improvement by 2,7%. Considerations are illustrated with datasheet based calculations, simulation...
The paper presents a new modulation strategy for cascaded H-bridge inverters which allows easy integration of device specific safety features like IGCT burst capability monitoring. It is compared to PWM using a simulation model of an unusual configuration for a 10 kV medium voltage inverter using just three cascaded cells per phase. The general structure of the cascaded H-bridge inverter and key data...
This paper presents a new hybrid current control scheme for dead-time compensations and power density optimization of grid-connected dc/ac inverter. A sliding mode controller is designed for compensating the dead-time nonlinear operations, and a PI controller operates in the linear areas. According to the SMC controller output, the unnecessary gate drive signals are removed and the counter side switch...
Nowadays there is an increasing attention towards multiphase drives, especially for medium and high power applications. In this paper some modulation strategies for M-phase inverters are compared and the modulation strategy with the minimum switching losses is determined. If the switching devices of the inverter are IGBTs or BJTs, this modulation strategy turns out to be the one with the minimum total...
