This paper presents the Space Vector Modulation (SVM) strategy for a three-phase 7-level multiplexed converter (3φ7L MLMXC) in high-power AC applications. The proposed converter consists of two Flying Capacitor (FC) converters directly connected to the three-level Neutral Point Clamped (NPC) converter. The proposed SVM is described and allows fixing the problem of the converter's forbidden states. The SVM is realized in xy coordinates to minimize the computational burden. The algorithm has been implemented into a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The modulation strategy has been tested at first in Simulink/Matlab environments and then on the multilevel converter prototype.

Abstract
This paper presents the Space Vector Modulation (SVM) strategy for a three-phase 7-level multiplexed converter (3φ7L MLMXC) in high-power AC applications. The proposed converter consists of two Flying Capacitor (FC) converters directly connected to the three-level Neutral Point Clamped (NPC) converter. The proposed SVM is described and allows fixing the problem of the converter's forbidden states. The SVM is realized in xy coordinates to minimize the computational burden. The algorithm has been implemented into a field-programmable gate array (FPGA). The modulation strategy has been tested at first in Simulink/Matlab environments and then on the multilevel converter prototype.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
