Abstract :
A high performance modulation technique for dual cascaded inverter is presented in this paper. It allows to optimize the converter performances in terms of power losses and harmonic content. A numerical analysis and an experimental implementation on a laboratory prototype fully confirm the validity of the proposed modulation technique.
