Abstract
The multilevel approach appears to be very promising in AC motor drives, especially when both reduced harmonic contents and high power are required. Several topologies of multilevel voltage source power converters structures are presented and discussed, with particular reference to the modulation techniques which rule the power converters interfacing with the AC drives processes.
