Abstract
- A simplified space vector modulation (SVM) technique is proposed for the seven-level cascaded H-bridge (CHB) inverter. It is based on decomposing the seven-level space vector hexagon into a number of two-level space vector hexagons. The presented technique significantly reduces the calculation time and efforts involved in the SVM of a seven-level inverter; without any loss in the output voltage magnitude or increase in the total harmonic distortion content. A further simplified technique is also presented in this study, which significantly reduces the complexity and effort involved in the seven-level SVM. Simulation results for the seven-level CHB inverter using the proposed techniques are presented. The results are compared with results using sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (PWM) and third harmonic injection PWM to prove the validity of the proposed techniques. The proposed technique is perfectly general and can be applied to all types of multilevel inverters and extended to higher level inverters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
