In this paper, a 7-level Diode Clamped Multilevel Inverter (DCMLI) is simulated with three different carrier PWM techniques. Here, Carrier based Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM), Third Harmonic Injected Pulse Width Modulation (THIPWM) and Modified Carrier-Based Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) are used as modulation strategies. These modulation strategies include Phase Dispos...

This paper presents the comparative study of three phase twenty five level diode clamped and cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverters.

This paper compares the performance of diode clamped three level inverter based STATCOM with sinusoidal and space vector PWM techniques. Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) technique is the most advantageous technique than the conventional sinusoidal PWM technique for a multilevel inverter. The space vector pulse width modulation technique is an advanced, computation-intensive PWM metho...

Switching power converters are used in industrial application to convert and deliver their required energy to the motor or lo ad because of advances in solid state power devices and microprocessors. Pulse Width Modulation variable speed drives are increasingly applied in many new industrial applications that require superior performance. The advantages of PWM based switc hing power converter ov...

Common-mode voltage (CMV) generated by the inverter causes motor bearing failures in multiphase drives.On the other hand, presence of undesired z-component currents in six-phase induction machine (SPIM) leads to extra current losses and have to be considered in pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques. In this paper, it is shown that the presence of z-component currents and CMV in six phase driv...

In this paper, a method for minimization of Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is proposed in case of PWM inverter. Inverters are widely used in many applications such as in the UPS and ac motor drives resulting in harmonics production. A phase compensation Resonant Controller (RSC) is proposed for 1-phase pulse width modulation (PWM) inverter using MATLAB simulation. The simulation results are th...

In this paper, hybrid pulse width modulation algorithm for vector controlled induction motor drives is used to reduce the steady state ripple in current. Also the newly developed Hybrid PWM technique does not use angle and sector information and hence it simplifies the control algorithm. The conventional Space vector pulse width modulation (CSVPWM) algorithm gives inferior performance at higher...

Soft Switcing techniques have recently been applied in the design of dc-ac converters, in order to achive better performance, higher efficiency, and power density. One of the soft switching techniques uesd in inverters is resonant dc links. These topologies have some disadvantages such as irregular current peaks, large voltage peaks, uncotrollble pulse width, etc. Another soft switching method ...
