To supply five-phase variable speed drives, five-phase voltage source inverters are used. Some of the applications of five-phase variable speed drives are traction, electric & hybrid-electric vehicles, and ship propulsion. Different control systems are available for the controlled output of the five-phase VSI, but space vector pulse width modulation is popular because of its simpler digital implementation. In this paper, the SVPWM schemes have proposed and analyzed for the multilevel operation of a five-phase dual voltage source inverter. The proposed techniques do not contribute a voltage balancing issues such as in multilevel neutral point clamped (NPC) inverters. The author analyzed the performance of five-phase VSI based on THD and fundamental components. Matlab/Simulink model has provided for results verification.

The digital control of three-level voltage source inverter fed high power high performance ac drives has recently become a popular in industrial applications. In order to control such drives, the pulse width modulation algorithm needs to be implemented in the controller. In this paper, synchronized symmetrical bus-clamping pulse width modulation strategies are presented. These strategies have some practical advantages such as reduced average switching frequency, easy digital implementation, reduced switching losses and improved output voltage quality compared to conventional space vector pulse width modulation strategies. The operation of three level inverter in linear region is extended to overmodulation region. The performance is analyzed in terms THD and fundamental output voltage waveforms and is compared with conventional space vector PWM strategies and found that switching losses can be minimized using bus-clamping strategy compared to conventional space vector strategy. The proposed method is implemented using Motorola Power PC 8240 processor and verified on a constant v/f induction motor drive fed from IGBT based inverter.

<p>Multiphase (more than three phases) is very much popular due to their eminent features compared to conventional three-phase counter parts. In order to drive the multiphase machine, it requires same phase input w.r.t the no of phases at the output. This paper mainly focuses on five phase, because even after failure of one phase, the performance does not degraded much. Voltage source inverters (VSIs) are used to feed the induction motor. voltage source inverters (VSIs) switches are ON and OFF precisely to control the output. In order to implement harmonic waveform characteristic, carrier based PWM (pulse width modulation) is performed. By using with and without third harmonic injection machine torque is highly improved. Using MATLAB software, the simulation results are presented in the form of computer traces and high traded performance of the machine are discussed.</p>

In current days, the power quality issues in the interconnected power system are mainly happens due to the demand of electricity and utilization of large non-linear loads as well as inductive/capacitive loads. The power quality cries are voltage sag and swell in multi-bus power system (MBPS). In this article studies on a two bus, three bus and five bus power systems using DPFC. In order to eliminate the voltage sag and swell in the MBPS, a distributed power flow controller (DPFC) is designed. The structure of the DPFC consists of three-phase shunt converter and three single series phase converters. Both these converters are arranged in back-back voltage source inverters (VSIs). These converters are controlled with help of the pulse width modulation (PWM) scheme. The feedback controllers and reference signals are derived the PWM for DPFC to magnify the power quality problems in MBPS. The performance of the model is investigated at different loads by making of MATLAB/Simulink model. The simulation results are presented.

A complete analysis of the ac output current ripple in four-leg voltage source inverters considering multiple modulation schemes is provided. In detail, current ripple envelopes and peak-to-peak profiles have been determined in the whole fundamental period and a comprehensive method providing the current ripple rms has been achieved, all of them as a function of the modulation index. These characteristics have been determined for both phase and neutral currents, considering the most popular common-mode injection schemes. Particular attention has been paid to the performance of discontinuous pulse width modulation (DPWM) methods, including DPWMMAX and DPWMMIN, and their four most popular combinations DPWM0, DPWM1, DPWM2, and DPWM3. Furthermore, a comparison with a few continuous techniques (sinusoidal, centered pulse width modulations, and third harmonic injection) has been provided as well. Moreover, the average switching frequency and switching losses are analyzed, determining which PWM technique ensures minimum output current ripple within the linear modulation range at different assumptions. Numerical simulations and laboratory tests have been conducted to extensively verify all the analytical claims for all the considered PWM injections.
