pwm

Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) is a technique used to control the output voltage of inverters by adjusting the on and off periods of their components, thereby reducing harmonic distortion. Multiple Pulse Width Modulation (MPWM) improves upon single PWM by generating several pulses in each half cycle to further decrease harmonic content. The output frequency and voltage can be controlled through the modulation index and the reference signal frequency.

4.5 PWM CONTROL: Multiple pulse width modulation (MPWM)

Pulse width modulation is the most commonly used technique to control


the output voltage of inverter. In pulse Width Modulation method, a fixed dc
input voltage is given to the inverters and a controlled ac output voltage is
obtained by adjusting the on and off periods of the inverter components.
PWM is a technique that is used to reduce the overall harmonic distortion
THD in a load current. It uses a pulse wave in square form that results in a
variable average waveform value, after its pulse width has been modulated.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF PWM CONTROL TECHNIQUE

1. Single pulse width modulation (Single PWM)

2. Multiple pulse width modulation (MPWM)

3. Sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM)

4. Modified Sinusoidal pulse width modulation (MSPWM)

5. Phase displacement control

Multiple Pulse Width Modulation (MPWM)

The main drawback of single PWM technique is high harmonic content. In


order to reduce the harmonic content, the multiple PWM technique
is used, in which several pulses are given in each half cycle of output
voltage. The generation of gating signal is achieved by comparing the
reference signal of the amplitude (Ar) with a triangular carrier wave (Ac)
as shown Figure below.

The output frequency (fo) is determined by the frequency of the


reference signal.The output voltage can be controlled by modulation
index.
