Solving Harmonics Elimination Problem in Voltage-controlled Three Phase Inverter using Artificial Neural Networks

A novel concept of application of Artificial Neural Networks ( ANN) for generating the optimum switching functions for the voltage and harmonic control of DC-to-AC bridge inverters is presented. In many research, the neural network is trained off line using the desired switching angles given by the classic harmonic elimination strategy to any value of the modulation index. This limits the utilisability and the precision in other modulation index values. In order to avoid this problem, a (...)
