Multi-sampled carrier-based PWM for multilevel active shunt power filters for aerospace applications (2011)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Odavic, M., Biagini, V., Sumner, M., Zanchetta, P., & Degano, M. (2011, September). Multi-sampled carrier-based PWM for multilevel active shunt power filters for aerospace applications. Presented at IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition: Energy Conversion Innovation for a Clean Energy Future, ECCE 2011,, Phoenix, Arizona, USA

Active power filters create sideband harmonics over a wide frequency range around the multiple carrier-frequency harmonics and these can encroach into the low frequency range. This issue is particularly critical when low carrier-fundamental frequency... Read More about Multi-sampled carrier-based PWM for multilevel active shunt power filters for aerospace applications.
