A NEW SPACE VECTOR MODULATION METHOD BASED ON REFERENCE VOLTAGE DECOMPOSITION FOR MULTILEVEL VSI

A new theory of reference voltage decomposition is proposed. Based on this theory the reference voltage vector of a multilevel VSI is divided into two parts: base vector and two level vector. Then a new multilevel space vector modulation (SVM) method is presented. With the proposed method only the two level reference vector needs to be synthesized using conventional two level SVM methods. The computation of the proposed method is very simple and fast through simplification of the multilevel SVM issue into a two level SVM issue. In addition some important allocation laws of multilevel space vectors are presented which are very useful to find out all redundant switching states. The proposed method is applicable for any number of levels and its feasibility is verified by simulation results.
