Abstract |
This paper will present different modulation schemes for optimizing the efficiency of low-voltage traction drives. The converter of the vehicle automatically has to select the most suitable modulation or control scheme depending on the present operating point in order to maximize the efficiency of the complete drive train. Furthermore, the functional principles and algorithms of the individual modulation schemes will be presented, as well as the transition between those schemes. Finally, the performance of the different schemes will be proved by dynamic and stationary tests through fully automatized measurement analysis. |
