Active DC voltage balancing PWM technique for high-power cascaded multilevel converters

In this paper a dedicated PWM technique specifically designed for single-phase (or four wire three-phase) multilevel Cascaded H-Bridge Converters is presented. The aim of the proposed technique is to minimize the DC-Link voltage unbalance, independently from the amplitude of the DC-Link voltage refe...
