Abstract
A unique impedance Source Inverter with an Active Front-End is proposed in this paper, that can be used for controlling AC Drives. There are a number of modulation schemes that may be used with the three-phase impedance source inverters, ultimate reduction in the switching losses makes the discontinuous modulation schemes seem most appropriate. The discontinuous modulation schemes are differentiated into two classes based on the technique used for achieving shoot-through (ST) state: single-phase-leg ST-based and three-phase-leg ST-based (3P) discontinuous modulation schemes. In this paper, we discuss the improvements in Single Phase Maximum Boost Discontinuous Space Vector modulation (1P/MB/DSVM) scheme under similar operating conditions, by simplifying gate signal generation and improving the conversion efficiency. A simulated analysis and comparison of the conventional and the enhanced 1P/MB/DSVM schemes is also discussed using PLECS. Lastly, verification of the simulation outcomes and reported analysis is carried out by making use of a three-phase quasi-Z-source inverter (qZSI) prototype which demonstrates improvement in conversion efficiency, utilizing the refined 1P/MB/DSVM scheme.
