Abstract

In SVPWM technique, the voltage reference provided using revolving reference vector. In this case magnitude and frequency of the fundamental component in line side is controlled by the magnitude and frequency respectively of the reference voltage vector. Space vector modulation techniques utilize the DC bus voltage more efficiently and generate less harmonic distortion when compared to sinusoidal PWM (SPWM) technique. The space vector pulse width modulation control technique has been applied to five level flying capacitor inverter and their performance has been analyzed by using MATLAB /Simulink. The output shows better performance results. The variations based in Total harmonics distortion are also analyzed
