摘要
Common-mode voltage output is closely associated with switching states in three-phase three-wire neutral point clamped converter. Detailed analysis shows avoiding redundant states can effectively improve the common-mode voltage, so this paper proposes a pulse width modulation (PWM) technique with zero redundant state to reduce the common-mode voltage output, and evaluates their performance with the conventional PWM schemes. This paper also takes the compensation of neutral point potential deviation into consideration. Laboratory test results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
