A 3-phase Z-source inverter driven by a novel hybrid switching algorithm by Malengret, Jean-Claude

“…A novel DSP control algorithm allows the inverter toachieve the following:· Run Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SV-PWM) for maximum DCbus voltage utilization while boosting the DC bus during zero space vectorstates using shoot through.· Seamless transition between modulation control and modulation / shootthrough control.· Optimised efficiency and DC bus utilisation using Hybrid Space VectorBoost Pulse Width Modulation (HSVB PWM) which is unique to thisdissertation.Such a system is particularly suited to fuel cell and particularly wind turbineapplications where the DC bus voltage is varies over a wide range resulting inthe need for a DC to DC buck/boost to regulate the DC bus to maintain a steady3-phase sinusoidal output. …”
