A unified SVPWM fault tolerant control algorithm for single leg fault reconstruction topology of two-level inverter.

To improve the reliability of Two-level three phase voltage source inverters, a uniform fault tolerant strategy based on space vector pulse width modulation is proposed for different leg faults. The reconstructed topologies of inverters with different bridge arm faults are different, which makes the basic voltage vector phase of each reconstructed topology inconsistent, resulting in different calculations. Therefore, the coordinate transformation is applied to place the basic voltage vectors of each reconstructed topology on the synchronous stationary αβ coordinate system so that the calculations of the reconstructed topology under different bridge arm faults are unified, thus reducing the complexity of fault-tolerant control. Aiming at the three-phase current asymmetry caused by the neutral point voltage oscillation in inverter topology reconstruction, a transient compensation method of neutral point voltage offset for the α-axis component of the reference voltage vector is introduced to suppress the adverse effects. The compensation method directly offers a neutral point voltage offset value after Clarke transformation and corrects the α-axis component of the reference voltage vector, avoiding the integral calculation in the conventional voltage compensation algorithm. The correctness and effectiveness of the proposed fault-tolerant control strategy are verified experimentally.
