Space Vector Modulation (SVM) | Tutorials on Electronics
The inverter''s eight possible switching states (six active and two zero vectors) define discrete voltage vectors in the αβ-plane. These vectors form a hexagon, and the desired output voltage
The inverter''s eight possible switching states (six active and two zero vectors) define discrete voltage vectors in the αβ-plane. These vectors form a hexagon, and the desired output voltage
Voltage is a basic space vector, and its magnitude and direction are represented by a space vector hexagon. The 8 switching combinations correspond to 8 basic voltage
The common PWM methods, as well as their impacts on inverter performance, harmonic content, and distortion, are covered in single
Because of advances in solid state power devices and microprocessors, PWM inverters are becoming more and more popular in today''s motor drives. PWM inverters make it
The goal of space vector modulation is exactly to generate the appropriate PWM signals so that any vector V inside the hexagon can be produced by "time weighting" the two reference
Consider the concept of space vector modulation for motor control on a three-phase inverter with six switches represented by the following
This gives us eight possible basic space vectors, which are given in table 1. Vectors from U 1 to U 6 are different non-zero vectors, while vectors U 7 and U 8 represent two zero vectors (All
Each of the three inverter outputs can be in one of the two states. The inverter output can be connected to either the plus (+) bus rail or the
Consider the concept of space vector modulation for motor control on a three-phase inverter with six switches represented by the following equivalent circuit. Note, there are eight valid
Each of the three inverter outputs can be in one of the two states. The inverter output can be connected to either the plus (+) bus rail or the minus (-) bus rail, which allows for 2 3 = 8
Space Vector PWM How to switch the eight vectors so that the correct voltage is impressed on the load? Space vector PWM is an extension of sine triangle PWM. Here the PWM is done by
Voltage is a basic space vector, and its magnitude and direction are represented by a space vector hexagon. The 8 switching
This gives us eight possible basic space vectors, which are given in table 1. Vectors from U 1 to U 6 are different non-zero vectors, while vectors U 7
The common PWM methods, as well as their impacts on inverter performance, harmonic content, and distortion, are covered in single-phase inverters and three-phase inverters in the section
In this chapter single-phase inverters and their operating principles are analyzed in detail. The concept of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) for inverters is described with analyses extended to
