A high performance PWM algorithm with reduced common mode voltage (CMV) and satisfactory overall performance is proposed for three-phase PWM inverter drives. The algorithm combines the near state PWM (NSPWM) method which has superior overall performance characteristics at high modulation index and MAZSPWM, a modified form of the active zero state PWM method (AZSPWM1), which is suitable for low modulation index range of operation. Since AZSPWM1 has line-to-line voltage pulse reversals with small zero-voltage time intervals, in its naive form it causes overvoltages, in particular in long cable motor drive applications. Obtained by re-organizing the duty cycles of the utilized voltage vectors of AZSPWM1, MAZSPWM has sufficiently long zero-voltage time intervals between pulse reversals such that overvoltages are avoided. The combined algorithm performs satisfactorily throughout the inverter operating range and the transition from NSPWM to MAZSPWM and vice versa is seamless. The performance of the proposed algorithm is proven by theory, computer simulations, and detailed laboratory experiments. The paper also shows that the proposed reduced CMV PWM algorithm is effective in reducing the motor leakage current and it is most beneficial when a small common mode inductor is included in the drive.

A unity power factor buck type PWM rectifier for medium/high power DC motor drive applications Bilgin, HF; Kose, KN; Zenginobuz, G; Ermiş, Muammer; Nalcaci, E; Cadirci, I; Kose, H (2000-10-04) This paper describes the application of a single stage unity pf buck type PWM rectifier to medium and high power variable speed dc motor drives. The advantages of the developed system are low harmonic distortion in ac supply currents (comply with IEEE Std. 519 and IEC 555), nearly unity pf over a wide operating shaft speed range, nearly level armature -current and -voltage waveforms. These properties of output voltage and current quantities of the converter eliminate entirely any failure risk in current com...
A High-Performance PWM Algorithm for Common-Mode Voltage Reduction in Three-Phase Voltage Source Inverters Hava, Ahmet Masum (2011-07-01) A high-performance pulsewidth modulation (PWM) algorithm with reduced common-mode voltage (CMV) and satisfactory overall performance is proposed for three-phase PWM inverter drives.

Selection of suitable PWM switching and control methods for modular multilevel converter drives / Çiftçi, Barış; Hava, Ahmet Masum; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014) The thesis focuses on the determination of suitable carrier based PWM switching and control method for modular multilevel converter drives. Characterization of various level-shifted and phase-shifted carrier based PWM methods are provided in terms of switching pulse patterns and resultant voltage waveforms both for N+1 and 2N+1 level output phase voltages. Modular multilevel converter PWM based control approaches are evaluated. Performances of different control methods are given for output harmonics distort...
A Comparative Study of Capacitive and Inductive Pulsed Power Supply Topologies for Electromagnetic Launcher Applications Ceylan, Doga; Pourkeivannour, Siamak; Keysan, Ozan (2019-01-01) Inductive and capacitive types are the most common pulsed power supply (PPS) topologies. In this paper, the comparison of inductive XRAM generator and capacitor-based (C-based) generator topologies is discussed for the excitation of an electromagnetic launcher (EML). In addition, the effect of capacitance or inductance of the storage element on the load current and laucher efficiency is investigated. The circuit simulation results of these PPS topologies are presented, each of which having 200 kJ PPS energy...
A Near State PWM Method With Reduced Switching Frequency And Reduced Common Mode Voltage For Three-Phase Voltage Source Inverters Un, Emre; Hava, Ahmet Masum (2007-05-05) The Near State PWM (NSPWM) method, which reduces the common mode voltage/current, is proposed for three-phase PWM inverter drives. The optimal voltage vectors and their sequences are determined. The voltage linearity and DC bus and AC output PWM current ripple characteristics are studied. The method is thoroughly investigated and its performance is compared to conventional methods. Theory, simulations, and experiments show that NSPWM exhibits superior common mode and satisfactory PWM ripple performance char...
