The space vector control based voltage control method for a three-phase PWM rectifier requires a lot of effort to design an optimal switching pattern since a switching pattern for the switching section must be designed. In this study, a D-Q control based SPWM output voltage control algorithm was studied for the three-phase six-pulse CVS type rectifier. In the output voltage control algorithm, three-phase reference signals are obtained from the D-Q transformation based on the space vector representation method, instead of the switching pattern, SPWM method is used to generate rectifier switching control signals. Next, a three-phase six-pulse CVS PWM rectifier based on D-Q transformation and SPWM was modeled using EMTP-RV. Finally, the validity of the D-Q control-based SPWM voltage control algorithm was confirmed by comparing the output voltage waveform obtained through EMTP-RV simulation works with a reference value and confirming that the output voltage accurately follows the reference voltage.

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 proposes a DC-DC boost converter for wearable AMOLED display using dead time controller to reduce dead time and improve power efficiency. Also the DC-DC boost converter adopts PWM-SPWM (set-time variable pulse width modulation) dual-mode to enhance power efficiency under light load and decrease output voltage ripple. The proposed circuit has been designed using $0.18{\mu}m$ BCDMOS process. Simulation results show that the circuit has power efficiency of 39%~96% and output ripple voltage of 2 mV under load current range of 1 mA~70 mA. The power efficiency of the proposed circuit is up to 2% higher than the previous PWM-SPWM method and up to 8% higher than only PWM method.

This paper deals with PWM patterns for harmonic reduction in inverter fed traction motors and the gear changing techniques for the variable speed drive of traction motor. GTOs are used as switching device of inverter because traction motor is a large load. To derive PWM rattern which can minimize the harmonics with the limited switching frequency, the output current and torque characteristic of SPWM and SHE PWM was analyzed. GTO inverter used for traction motor drive includes harmonics in the output current and torque by the limitation of switching frequency. However, the hybrid PWM method that adopt SPWM in the range of low frequency and SHE PWM in upper frequency range can achieve less harmonic characteristics in GTO inverters. If the traction motor is driven in variable speed by the proposed PWM pattern, 7 times of gear changing is needed. At the instant of the mode change, magnetic flux and torque may be altered and the large current flow. To reduce such an undesirable transient behavior, it is also presented the technique for the gear changing of inverter fed traction motor drive operated with the hybrid PWM. The results are verified by simulations 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.

A novel carrier-based PWM (CBPWM) strategy of a three-level NPC converter is proposed in this paper. The novel strategy can eliminate the low-frequency neutral point (NP) voltage oscillation under the entire modulation index and full power factor. The basic principle of the novel strategy is introduced. The internal modulation wave relationship between the novel CBPWM strategy and traditional SPWM strategy is also studied. All 64 modulation wave solutions of the CBPWM strategy are derived. Furthermore, the proposed CBPWM strategy is compared with traditional SPWM strategy regarding the output phase voltage THD characteristics, DC voltage utilization ratio, and device switching losses. Comparison results show that the proposed strategy does not cause NP voltage oscillation. As a result, no low-frequency harmonics occur on output line-to-line voltage and phase current. The novel strategy also has higher DC voltage utilization ratio (15.47% higher than that of SPWM strategy), whereas it causes larger device switching losses (4/3 times of SPWM strategy). The effectiveness of the proposed modulation strategy is verified by simulation and experiment results.

In PWM inverters used in traction motor drive systems, the switching frequency is restricted by their large power capacity and thus the electromagnetic acoustic noise is generated. To reduce such an audible noise, the new MRSF-PWM(Modified Random Switching Frequency PWM) method is proposed. In the Proposed MRSF-PWM method, both triangular wave and sawtooth wave are used together as carrier waves for harmonic diffusion and reference wave is generated by injecting 3rd harmonic into the stone wave to expand the linear control region of output voltages. To verify the validity of the proposed MRSF-PWM method, computer simulations are carried out. And the results show that the MRSF-PWM method is more excellent than other RPWM methods in the aspects of both linearity and harmonic diffusion md more effective than SPWM(Sinusoidal PWM) method for the reduction of an audible noise.

In this paepr, we present a soft switching PWM inverter as reducing switching loss and stress at high power application. The PWM inverter is designed by space voltage about 2$\sqrt{3}$ times (15%) than conventional SPWM method. To reduce switching loss and stress. The DC link requires a capacitor, an inductor and two additional switches. Therefore proposed inverter performs trun PWM operation under the soft switching condition. As a result of soft switching we can reduce switching loss and ensure stability of switching devices. For approach to real time, control system is realized by 8 bit single-chip microprocessor. Therefore, we can construct system is with simplified volumn and structure by eliminating carrier wave and referrence wave generator of conventional SPWM method.

This paper describes the Optimal PWM strategy to reduce a pulsating harmonic torque for a variable-speed drive of 3 phase induction motor. This paper suggests the new Optimal control theory which consists of 1) defining a performance index related to the unwanted effects of the voltage harmonics, (i.e., the components of pulsating harmonic torques) 2) achieving its minimization by a suitable choice of the switching patterns. (i.e., of the commutation angles) This PWM strategy is compared with the conventional SPWM strategy by numerical method. It is believed that this proposed strategy can reduce more harmonic components and pulsating harmonic torques than SPWM strategy. Also, We could verify the validety of the numerical method by a result of simulation analysis of a variable speed 3phase induction motor.
