A new PWM technique is proposed for a threephase sin-wave PWM inverter. The pulse width is decided to produce a sin-wave output voltage by numerical calculation based on a geometrical technique. The accuracy of output voltage and the harmonics in an output voltage waveform are discussed as compared with the conventional triangulation method. Further, a modified method is introduced for a PWM inverter with fluctuating input voltage. The validity of the proposed method for the PWM inverter is verified in an experiment using a microprocessor-based control system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
