A New Topology of Five-Level Neutral Point Clamped Inverter for Motion Control Systems

Abstract:

The paper presents a new topology of 5-level neutral point clamped inverter that can be used for speed and torque control of synchronous and induction motors. The proposed topology has only two bi-directional and four standard IGBT switches per phase. The significant advantages of the proposed inverter are simpler control and lower number of switches than in the standard 5-level inverters. Extensive simulation results validate the practicability of the proposed inverter. Several aspects as Total Harmonic Distortion Factor of the inverter output currents, and voltages, harmonic content, and frequency spectrum distribution are studied.
