Summary:Overmodulation enhances the power utilization of the installed
capacity of a voltage-source inverter. A space-vector strategy is used
for constant-switching-frequency inverters. In order to achieve the
overmodulation, a modified reference signal with nonuniform angular
velocity is generated using a preprocessor. Such a reference wave
produces low-frequency harmonics in currents. The presence of current
harmonics restricts the bandwidth of the synchronous proportional plus
integral current controller in the overmodulation range. A compensating
current control is presented to allow for high-bandwidth current control
in synchronous coordinates during overmodulation and six-step. The
proposed scheme allows for an easy upgrade of a conventional vector
control scheme to include overmodulation and, thus, reduce the
design-to-market time
