Parallel-connections of pulsewidth modulated inverters using current sharing reactors

A technique of parallel connection of power devices by using current sharing reactors for pulsewidth modulated (PWM) inverters is reported in this paper. The proposed technique not only increases the current capacity but also decreases the output harmonic contents. The output voltage waveforms of the proposed inverter have certain voltage levels during their half cycles, thus it is anticipated that it will be difficult to analyze the output waveforms. For such waveforms, a frequency analysis approach is described, whose results are verified by experiments.<
