Soft-Switching Technology Based NPC-CI voltage balance for DC Port Failure

In this paper, soft-switching modulation of NPC-CI is proposed, to tackle the voltage balance when DC port is failed. This modulation is focus on the switch frequency when voltage balance strategy applied. Based a 3-module prototype, the experiment has been accomplished to verify the voltage balance ability and the efficiency of the proposed strategy.
