In order to suppress the leakage current of the active neutral point clamed five-level (ANPC-5L) inverter, this paper proposes a novel low common-mode voltage (CMV) modulation strategy based on the space vector modulation thought. Only the 55 voltage vectors with low CMV amplitude instead of all 125 voltage vectors are utilized. The CMV amplitude is suppressed to one-twelfth of the DC bus voltage (Vdc). In the simplified five-level space vector diagram, “obtuse triangle” synthesis principle is used to control the CMV changes twice in each carrier cycle, and get lower output current total harmonic distortion (THD). According to the vector thought, a carrier implementation method based on zero sequence voltage injection and carrier splitting is proposed. This method simplifies the calculation and is easy to implement.Simulation results prove the correctness and feasibility of this low CMV modulation strategy.

In this paper, the effect of common-mode voltage generated in the three-level quasi-switched boost T-type inverter is minimized by applying the proposed space-vector modulation technique, which uses only medium vectors and zero vector to synthesize the reference vector. The switching sequence is selected smoothly for inserting the shoot-through state for the inverter branch. The shoot-through vector is added within the zero vector in order to not affect the active vectors as well as the output voltage. In addition, the shoot-through control signal of active switches of the impedance network is generated to ensure that its phase is shifted 90 degrees compared to shoot through the signal of the inverter leg, which provides an improvement in reducing the inductor current ripple and enhancing the voltage gain. The effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through simulation and experimental results. In addition, the superiority of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by comparing it to the conventional pulse-width modulation technique.
