Abstract :
This paper proposed a novel control scheme for rectifier in 3-level neutral-point-clamped (NPC) converter for propulsion of high speed maglev train. In rectifier, the voltage and current are regulated by closed-loop in d-q reference frame. The fluctuation of neutral-point voltage is analyzed, and a new SVPWM modulation strategy is presented to make the NP voltage balance. The performance of rectifier controller is investigated including current harmonic, power factor, neutral point voltages. The strategy is verified in a real-time simulation system of hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) in our Lab.
