An Improved Phase-Shifted DPWM Method for Reducing Switching Loss and Thermal Balancing in Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter

This paper proposes an improved discontinuous pulse-width modulation (DPWM) method based on phase-shifted PWM (PS-PWM) for three-phase cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel inverters. Due to the CHB multilevel inverters employ a large number of power semiconductor switches, they suffer from device fail...
