Abstract

This chapter provides survey on optimal multiphase inverter techniques, carrier-based CB-PWM and space vector PWM, with the emphasis on the five- and seven-phase inverters. Chapter proceeds with the extension of the analysis of the peak-to-peak output current ripple to five- and seven-phase inverters, with reference to the optimal modulation and multiphase loads such are motor loads. The analysis is accompanied with the numerical and experimental results.
