Improving Multilevel Inverter with a New Suboptimal PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) Algorithm

The full paper starts with discussing in some detail what appeared to us to be the deficiencies of existing PWM algorithms~().We then propose a new suboptimal PWM algorithm that can,in our opinion,improve the performance of multilevel inverter.The proposed suboptimal algorithm can increase considerably the voltage modulation index and fundamental component.In the full paper,we describe in detail the proposed suboptimal algorithm;here we just list the two topics discussed:(1) the consideration in some detail of the calculation of optimal modulation wave form;(2) the consideration in much detail of the calculation of the suboptimal PWM wave form or switching angles.Simulation results do show preliminarily that the proposed suboptimal algorithm can increase the voltage modulation index and fundamental component considerably.Besides,simulation results also show that total harmonic distortion can be decreased somewhat with our proposed suboptimal algorithm.
