INTRODUCTION
Semiconductor switches mainly determine the overall price of power
converters.
The main objective of this project is to prove 2leg inverters are the best
option for low power applications for getting the good performance.
Two leg inverter produces the square wave or quasi-square wave. but low
power applications allow the two leg inverter output.
In many industrial applications, it is often required to vary the output
voltage of the inverter due to the following reasons
To cope with the dc I/p voltage.
To regulate the voltage of inverters
To satisfy the constant voltage & frequency for control requirement.
Pulse-Width Modulated For VSI
Disadvantages of PWM
semiconductor devices must have low turn-on and turn-off times. so, they are very expansive

Reduction of available voltage

Increase of switching losses due to high PWM frequency


Control of inverter output voltage with out any additional components

Reduction of lower harmonics

The most common PWM approach is sinusoidal PWM. In this method a
triangular wave is compared to a sinusoidal wave of the desired frequency and the
relative levels of the two waves is used to control the switching of devices in each
phase leg of the inverter.
Objective of PWM
Space vector modulation
In sinusoidal PWM, the inverter can be thought of as three separate
push-pull driver stages, which create each phase waveform
independently.
SVM, however treats the inverter as a single unit
The space vector method is a d,q model PWM approach
Modulation index is high
SVM produces 15% higher then the sinusoidal PWM in output voltages
Simple, inherently digital calculation of the switching times.
SVPWM has been gaining more attention in the industry.

Coordinate Transformation (abc reference frame to the stationary d-q frame)
: A three-phase voltage vector is transformed into a vector in the stationary d-q
coordinate
frame which represents the spatial vector sum of the three-phase voltage
The vectors (V
1
to V
4
) divide the plane into Four sectors (each sector: 90 degrees)
V

is generated by two adjacent non-zero vectors and two zero vectors
Comparison of Sine PWM and Space Vector PWM
Space Vector PWM generates less harmonic distortion
in the output voltage or currents in comparison with sine PWM
Space Vector PWM provides more efficient use of supply voltage
in comparison with sine PWM

Voltage Utilization: Space Vector PWM = 2/3 times of Sine PWM

CONCLUSION
In this dissertation work, it is shown that two-leg inverters are the best
option for high performance low power applications. It can be resolved
by comparing the no of semiconductor switches usage in 2-leg and 3-leg
inverters and moreover two leg inverters allow the asymmetrical
voltages
To enable this, space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM)
technique for two-leg and three-leg inverters is presented.
