A Novel Low-Frequency Virtual Space Vector Modulation With the Improved Continuity of Output Average-Voltage and Bus Voltage Utilization for Single-Phase Neutral Point Clamped Three-Level Inverter

In the high-power superconducting fusion converter, the single-phase neutral point clamped (NPC) three-level converter is applied to replace the traditional thyristor converter using an integrated gate-commutated thyristor (IGCT) as a power device. The operating frequency of IGCT is usually lower, only a few hundred Hz. An optimized hybrid space vector pulsewidth modulation (SVPWM)-8H is proposed ...
