Research Abstract

An unbalanced input voltage three level inverter which boosts up the input voltage by means of energy storage devices is proposed with its control method. Their performance and control characteristics are examined by both theory and experiment. Those studies verify that a more highly efficient and down sized power converter for hybrid powered traction systems than a conventional system such as the one with DC/DC converters.
