Abstract

This paper presents an unipolar PWM which commutated switching device only in a half period. This method reduced switching loss significantly because of decreasing switching number in n period. In high speed motor drive needed high frequency above 300 Hz fundamental frequency, this method is suited very well. This paper described the principle of unipolar PWM method, analyzed harmonic spectrum and compared with bipolar PWM, Modified PWM and Overmodulation method in switching loss.
