Optimal Low Switching Frequency PWM Pattern for a Three-Level Neutral Point Clamped (NPC) Inverter
Abstract
This paper proposes a mechanism of development of synchronous optimal pulse width modulation (PWM) generation for control of medium-voltage motor drives using multilevel inverters at low switching frequency. Multilevel inverters enable operation with multiple dc-link voltages while lowering total harmonic distortion (THD). Thermal losses limit the maximum switching frequency in high-power applications. As a result, the output waveforms are …
