Abstract

The aim of this paper is to present the real-time implementation and measurements of a reduced switch count in space vector pulse width modulation for three-level neutral point clamped inverters (3L-NPC). We implement space vector pulse width modulation, which uses a prediction algorithm to reduce the number of switches in power transistors (switch count) by up to about 13%. The algorithm applies additional redundant voltage vectors. The method is compute-intensive and was implemented on a dual-core TMS320F28379D digital signal controller. The latest measurements of steady and dynamic states of electric drive, powered by a 3L-NPC inverter using this method, confirmed the possibility of using this method in practical implementation. The implementation and results of the measurements are presented in this paper.
