Abstract

A method for selective harmonic elimination in pulse-width-modulated (PWM) inverter waveforms by the use of Walsh functions is presented. The Walsh operational matrix of PWM is introduced as a means of obtaining the Walsh spectral equations of PWM waveforms. The slope and intercept Fourier operational matrices of PWM are also introduced as a means of obtaining Fourier spectral equations of PWM waveforms. A noniterative algorithm that produces piecewise-linear, global solutions between angles and for the angles is proposed. The algorithm also produces the full range of variation of fundamental voltage for given harmonic elimination constraints. The set of systems of linear equations obtained replaces the system of nonlinear transcendental equations used in the Fourier series harmonic elimination approach. In general, the algorithm makes possible the synthesis of two-state PWM inverter waveforms with specified old harmonic content.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
