What is synchronous modulation strategy in a two-level inverter?It is necessary to adopt a synchronous modulation strategy at a lower P value to reduce the harmonics of the line voltage and motor current .

How does a 3 phase inverter work?However, most 3-phase loads are connected in wye or delta, placing constraints on the instantaneous voltages that can be applied to each branch of the load. For the wye connection, all the “negative” terminals of the inverter outputs are tied together, and for the detla connection, the inverter output terminals are cascaded in a ring.
How many switch state possibilities are there in a 3-phase inverter?Considering inverter states in which one switch in each half-bridge is always on (for current continuity at the load) there are 23 = 8 switch state possibilities for the 3-phase inverter. We give each state a vector designation and a associated number corresponding to whether the top or bottom switch in each half-bridge is on.
How can a voltage inverter synchronize a line voltage?By carefully designing the sampling position and switching sequence of the voltage vector, the output voltage sequence of the inverter can achieve synchronization, HWS, TPS, and QWS.
