Abstract :
A multilevel converter utilizing machine windings to synthesize inverter outputs is proposed. The new multilevel converter overcomes the problems of classic multilevel converters, reduces the cost, size, and insulation requirement, and improves the performance of motor drives as well as electrical machines. The topology, advantages, modeling, control, and experimental results are presented in this paper.
