This paper proposes a novel Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) method for microprocessor implementation of full-bridge PWM inverters. In the method, the period of unipolar full-bridge inverters is divided equally into the frequency modulation ratio and the reference fundamental amplitude and the inverter output fundamental amplitude are compared. Using this method, the turn-on time computation of each interval is very favored for the microprocessor implementation. The harmonic analysis shows that the harmonics can be ignored when the modulation ratio is enough large. The simulation and experimental results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

In this study, the voltage control system of a single phase full bridge inverter was designed based on the SPWM driving method. The voltage control system consists of a single-phase full-bridge inverter, a PI controller for linearly compensating the error between the reference voltage and the output voltage, a PWM driving circuit for generating the gate signal using the SPWM method from the controller signal, and an LC filter for filtering the inverter output voltage waveform into sinusoidal waveform. Finally, the voltage control system of a single-phase full-bridge inverter based on the PWM driving method was modeled using EMTP-RV and by showing that the output voltage accurately converges the reference voltage through several simulation examples, the validity of the control system design was verified.

this paper a new PAM-PWM Inverter using IGBT Is described. The output waveforms in the proposed PAM-PWM inverter are investigated both theoretiically and experimentally. The line-voltage waveform is composed of fundamental component and the sidebands of carrier frequency. The lower order harmonics are not included In the output waveform. As each inverter arm does not operate during two-thirds period, the heats, generated in the devices are reduced. That is the size of the inverter system can be minimized because of the reduction In the heat dissipating equipemnt.

본 논문은 직류단 전원을 공유하는 복수의 인버터로 구성된 시스템에서 EMI 저감을 위한 연동제어 PWM 생성 기법을 제안한다. PWM 제어에 의한 스위칭시 전력단 중성점에서 커먼모드 전압이 생성되고, 기생 캐패시터를 통해 전원라인으로 유입되어 EMI 노이즈가 발생된다. 복수의 인버터 시스템에서도 동일한 현상이 나타나고, 이로인한 불특정한 커먼모드 전류가 발생한다. 본 논문에서는 2개의 인버터를 PWM 시점의 동기제어를 통해 커먼모드 노이즈를 상쇄하고자한다. 제안한 제어 기법을 검증하기 위하여 시뮬레이션으로 분석하며, 간이 실험 통해 검증한다.

배터리 에너지 저장 시스템이나 태양광 발전 시스템은 흔히 용량 확장, 신뢰성 향상, 효율 향상 등을 목적으로 계통연계형 인버터를 다수 모듈형으로 병렬 구성하게 된다. 이렇게 DC전원을 공유하면서 인버터 출력단을 하나로 묶어 운전하는 경우에 순환전류가 문제가 될 수 있는데, 계통주파수에 해당하는 위상 차 뿐만 아니라 수 kHz의 동기화 되지 않은 PWM 캐리어 위상 차에 의해서도 순환전류가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 PWM 동기화를 위하여, PEBB(Power Electronics Building Block) 개념을 사용하는 다수 대의 인버터가 직렬 또는 병렬로 구동될 때, 직렬 통신을 이용하여 PWM 캐리어들을 정밀하게 동기화 시키는 실용적인 방법에 대해서 제안하고자 한다.

This paper analyzes the performance of two three-leg inverters and a five-leg inverter and proposes the optimal operation conditions in applying the five-leg inverter for the train propulsion system. The five-leg inverter offers a saving of two switches compared with the standard two three-leg inverters and it is possible to control two three-phase motors independently by using a control board. All of these features lead to a potential reduction in capital cost and miniaturization of system. In this paper, first, the analysis of the existing motor control method and PWM method for two-traction motor drive of urban railway is implemented. Next, the operation principle and performance of five-leg inverter is introduced. Through the analysis, when it applies the same motor control method and the same PWM method for three-leg inverter and five-leg inverter, the characteristic of motor's speed and torque is compared.

Designed transformer-less inverter for photovoltaic and small unit windturbine power system. This system consisted of boost chopper circuit of multiple-switching method and foil bridge PWM inverter. Transformer-less system was adapted to reduce cost and size. But in this system, earth-leakage current have to be considered. So, to solve this problem, we used PWM inverter switching method to reduce the earth-leakage current which flows in accordance with the variation of DC input common mode voltage.

This paper presents a novel hybrid multilevel inverter using DC-Link voltage combination in order to improve the waveshape of output voltage and reduce harmonics. The proposed multilevel inverter can generate an 11-level output voltage. It employs three H-bridge cell, which consists of single phase full-bridge inverter module. Among them, two modules are used for level generation, and one module performs PWM switching. Nine levels are synthesised by the level inverter, and two levels are added to output by the PWM inverter. As a result, it generates an 11-level. The operational principles are explained in depth, and the validity of the proposed system is verified through the PSpice simulation and experimental results based on a prototype.

A new multilevel PWM inverter using a half-bridge and full-bridge cells is proposed for the use of stand-alone photovoltaic inverters. The configuration of the proposed multilevel PWM inverter is based on a prior 11-level shaped PWM inverter. Among three full-bridge cells employed in the prior inverter, one cell is substituted by a half-bridge cell. Owing to this simple alteration, the proposed inverter has three promising merits. First it increases the number of output voltage levels resulted in high quality output voltages. Second, it reduces two power switching devices by means of employing a half-bridge cell. Third, it reduces power imposed on a transformer connected with the half-bridge unit. That is to say, most power is transferred to loads via cascaded transformers connected with low switching inverters, which are used to synthesize the fundamental output voltage levels whereas the output of a transformer linked to a high switching inverter is used to improve the final output voltage waves; thus, it is desirable in the point of the improvement of the system efficiency. By comparing to the prior 11-level PWM inverter, it assesses the performance of the proposed inverter as a stand-alone photovoltaic inverter. The validity of the proposed inverter is verified by computer-aided simulations and experimental results.
