Abstract |
The paper takes into account Neutral Point Clamped inverters for high-speed traction drives. In particular, it examines the problems connected to the employment of Space Vector Modulation techniques and proposes a suitable approach that can be easily implemented on a modern microcomputer.
The proposed technique preserve the advantages of the SVM used in traditional two-level inverters; to this aim, all the commutations happen only between adjacent states, so that, during each modulation interval, only three commutations occur. |
