Characterization of Programmed-Waveform Pulsewidth Modulation

Abstract
Programmed-waveform pulsewidth modulated (PWM) waveforms, applicable to ac-dc/dc-ac converters, are synthesized and analyzed in terms of several structural parameters. By invoking sensitivity studies and heuristics, optimal PWM structures are identified and contrasted. The results show total harmonic performance as a function of switching levels, waveform types, commutations per cycle, and filter bandpass.
