Abstract: This paper presents a recent popular power inverter which is impedance source or Z-source inverter (ZSI) and the comparison and analysis of two conventional PWM techniques of Z-source inverter. Due to the impedance network it couples inverter main circuit to the power source thus providing special features that can overcome the limitations of traditional voltage source inverter (VSI) ...

In this paper, hybrid modulation methods suitable for H-bridge MLI are discussed. The results of experimental work using dSPACE system only are presented for three phase five level cascaded type inverter. Different hybrid carrier PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) strategies using sinusoidal reference, third harmonic injection reference, 60 degree reference and stepped wave reference for the chosen i...

This paper presents the experimental results of comparison between leakage currents and discharge currents. The leakage currents were obtained on polluted porcelain insulator. Whereas, the discharge currents were obtained on lightly artificial polluted porcelain specimen. The conducted measurements were leakage current or discharge current and applied voltage. The insulator or specimen was in a...

Islanding detection is one of the indispensable protection detections for grid-connected inverters. The detection of islanding is the key factor that should be considered in the analysis of grid-connection security. The non-detection zone is the performance index of anti-islanding plan. According to the phase feature, to make quantitative analyses to the nondetection zone of several frequency d...
