Abstract :
This article presents the study and implementation of a new asymmetric hybrid voltage inverter, for high voltage applications. The proposed inverter employs two types of modulation in low and high frequency (sinusoidal PWM). Simulations and experiment results are provided showing the validity of the analyses. These were obtained using a low-voltage single/three-phase prototype that demonstrated its operation.
