Standard lowand medium-power induction motor drives are based on the pulsewidth modulation (PWM) voltagesource inverter fed from a diode rectifier. The dual topology, based on the current-source inverter/rectifier structure is used in mediumand high-power applications. This paper analyzes the existing motor drives based on current-source topologies and proposes a control strategy that addresses...

This paper proposes five level diode clamped Z source Inverter. The existing PWM techniques used for ZSI are restricted for two level. The two level Z Source Inverter have high harmonic distortions which effects the performance of the grid connected PV system. To improve the performance of the system the number of voltage levels in the output waveform need to be increased. This paper presents c...

The voltage source inverter (VSI) and current voltage source inverter (CSI) are widely used in industrial application. But the traditional VSIs and CSIs have one common problem: can’t boost or buck the voltage come from battery, which make them impossible to be used alone in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV/EV) motor drive application, other issue is the traditional inverter need to add the dead-ba...

In this paper, a new circuit is proposed for step-up Z-source inverter based on QZSI (quasi-Z-source inverter). The proposed topology inherits all advantages of the conventional topology. The proposed topology in comparison with conventional topology reduces the ST (Shoot-through) duty cycle by over 25% at the same voltage boost factor. Theoretical analysis of the proposed qZSI in the ST and no...

To eliminate the common-mode leakage current in the transformerless photovoltaic system, an improved high efficiency inverter H6 type configuration with Z-source is presented.
