This paper presents a new three-phase four-leg voltage source inverter (VSI), which achieves a high cost effectiveness for mega-watt level system applications. The proposed four-leg inverter adopts the integrated topology with thyristors and insulated-gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), which aims to reduce the number of IGBTs.
A four leg inverter is used to reduce common-mode voltage as an alternative to expensive and large high-impedance common-mode filters. The four-leg topology needs an additional pair of semiconductor Switches and a driver circuit.
In the four-leg inverter first three-leg switching is done by carrier phase shifting modulation and the fourth leg should be switched in the form: where S, S, S, S S4 = S1 S2 S3 (3) are the top switches of four-leg inverter.
