Improvement of Post-Fault Performance of a Cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverter (2016)
Journal Article
Ouni, S., Zolghadri, M., Khodabandeh, M., Shahbazi, M., Rodriguez, J., Oraee, H., …Schmeisser, A. (2017). Improvement of Post-Fault Performance of a Cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverter. IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics, 64(4), 2779-2788. https://doi.org/10.1109/tie.2016.2632058This paper is focused on improving the post-fault performance of Cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverters by decreasing the common mode voltage. First, an algorithm is proposed to determine the optimal post-fault state among all possible states which h...
