Abstract

In this paper several modulation techniques for a three-level neutral-point-clamped quasi impedance source inverter are proposed and discussed. Mathematical descriptions with simulation results are presented for each modulation technique. Their advantages and disadvantages are shown and guidelines for further improvement are provided.
