Abstract
This paper shows that sinusoidal pulsewidth modulation (SPWM) flexible ac t ransmission system (FACTS) controllers can be synthesized by employing the phase-shifted triangle carrier technique to multiconverters at a switching rate of only three pulses, The options of parallel, series, and series/para llel module connections are examined for current equalization. This paper p resents simulation and experimental results.
