A Comparison of Converter's Power Loss under Different PWM Methods

This paper studies an fast calculating method of IGBT, then introduces several different PWM techniques in converters. It further compared the MVA rated three-phase IGBT converter's loss rates under different PWM means. Based on the lowest power loss, it presents the most desirable PWM method.
