Sequential Predictive Current Control of a VSI with Common-Mode Voltage Reduction (2020)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Murillo-Yarce, D., Rivera, M., Restrepo, C., Rodríguez, R., Wheeler, P. W., Zanchetta, P., & Mirzaeva, G. (2020). Sequential Predictive Current Control of a VSI with Common-Mode Voltage Reduction. In The 10th International Conference on Power Electronics, Machines and Drives (PEMD 2020) (651-656). https://doi.org/10.1049/icp.2021.1196

The voltage source inverter (VSI) is a classic topology widely used for ac conversion. In this paper sequential predictive control (SPC) is applied to a VSI converter that supplies a RL load. The objective is to demonstrate the potential of this new... Read More about Sequential Predictive Current Control of a VSI with Common-Mode Voltage Reduction.
