A volocity and an efficiency of an induction motor are lower than those of a DC motor. But in the control, the utility of an AC motor is more enlarged with the development of inverter. But unfortunately, in using the induction motor, it include a lot of harmonics because of switching of semi-conductor devices(SCR or Tr) in the inverter. In PCR, as the change of a firing angle $\alpha$, harmonics are changed. Hence, in this thesis analyze the harmonics and provide the region of it's application when PWM and 6-step applied to inverter. Of course, frequencies of inverter changed. Especially, in PWM a carrier ratio is changed.

In phase controlled rectifier(PCR), harmonica are changed according to the variation of a firing angle. These harmonics are supplied with the input of the inverter. And then, inverter output comes about the harmonics combined with the switching frequency of the inverter. Hence the efficiency of the induction motor ia decreased by the harmonic of the inverter output. In this paper, it analyzed about an effect of these harmonics ia analyzed by a computer simulation. The total harmonic distortion (THD) in the case of PCR containing the ripple was considerably larger than THO of the DC source. Therefore, it was proved that the firing angle variation of PCR had to be limited.

Multilevel voltage source inverters are emerging as a new breed of power inverter options for high power applications. This paper presents a cascade typed multilevel voltage source inverter which has separate de sources for high voltage. This inverter is proposed for flexible ac transmission systems (FACTS) including static var compensator(SVC), series compensation and phase shifting. It can solve the problems of conventional transformer-based multipulse inverters and the problems of multilevel diode-clamped inverters. To show the superiority of multilevel cascaded inverter, simulation results are discussed in detail.

In this paper, we proposed the isolated multi-level inverter using 3-phase transformers. It makes possible to use a single DC power source due to employing low frequency transformers. In this inverter, the number of transformer could be reduced comparing with an exiting 3-phase multi-level inverter using single phase transformer. Also, using phase angle control method with switching frequency equal to output fundamental frequency, harmonics component of output voltage and switching losses can be reduced. Finally, we made a prototype inverter to clarify the proposed electric circuit and reasonableness of control signal.

In this paper, a small signal model for grid-connected inverter with unipolar pulse width modulation method is presented. Small-signal analysis allows to predict the stability and dynamics of the inverter. To regulate output voltage and to achieve power factor correction, inverter has two control loops. Loop gains are useful to identify the stability for multi-loop controlled system. Based on small-signal model, controllers are designed to improve audio susceptibility and output impedance characteristics. Proposed small-signal model and controllers are verified by PSIM simulation and experiments.

A new SPWM inverter using three-phase boost converter by auxiliary partial resonant with high power factor and high efficiency is proposed. The proposed boost converter is constructed by using a resonant network in parallel with the switch of the conventional boost converter. The devices are switched at zero voltage or zero current eliminating the switching loss. A new Partial resonant boost converter achieves zero-voltage switching (ZVS) or zero-current switching (ZCS) for all switch devices without increasing their voltage and current stresses. This paper introduces elimination of low-order harmonics compared with conventional SPWM inverter and SPWM inverter using three-phase boost converter by auxiliary Partial resonant.

PWM(Pulse-Width Modulation) is frequently used as control method for inverter. In control of active silencer studied presently, PWM control method can be applied. This paper presents its possibility. As operating source of loudspeaker, inverter is used instead of audio amplifier and PWM controller controls the inverter to make canceling sound. This paper presents that active silencer of inverter-type using the PWM control method makes the canceling sound to acoustic noise and cancels the acoustic noise.

In this inverter the waveform of the output votage has smaller harmonic contents than those of a conventional six-step inverter. In this paper a new multi-step technique is analyzed. This new multi-step technique of the twelve-stewed single phase voltage source inverter has the advantage compared with the conventional six-step inverter, and the experimental results are proved by the calculation using spectrum-analyzer.

A novel multilevel PWM inverter is presented for the use of stand-alone photovoltaic power generation system. In appearance, it consists of three full-bridge modules and three cascaded transformers; therefore, the configuration of the proposed multilevel PW inverter is equal to that of a prior 11-level PWM inverter. Only the turn-ratio of a transformer and its corresponding switching function are different from each other. Owing to these differences, the proposed 19-level PWM inverter has two promising advantages. First, output voltage levels increase almost twofold. Consequently, it can generate more sinusoidal output voltage waveform. Second, due to a revised switching pattern, it lightens power imposed on the transformer, which is used for compensating output voltages with chopped pulses between steps. The validity of the proposed inverter system is verified by computer-aided simulations and experimental results based on a 1 ［kW］ prototype. The performance of the proposed 19-level PWM inverter is compared with the Prior 11-level PWM inverter and other counterparts.
