Abstract

This paper introduces the topology of three-level inverter and analyses its operational process. According to the analysis, traditional SVPWM control strategy will cause neutral point potential shifting, thereby an improved control strategy is designed to solve the potential shifting by resynthesizing vectors in particular sectors. This control strategy reduces the neutral current to a value near zero to compensate the neutral point potential shifting. Simulation and experiment have verify the effect of this SVPWM control strategy.
