Optimal Variable Switching Frequency Scheme to Reduce Loss of Single-Phase Grid-Connected Inverter With Unipolar and Bipolar PWM

Reducing the power loss of a converter without increasing its volume or cost in hardware has always been a much sought-after but challenging goal. This article proposes a comprehensive variable switching frequency (VSF) scheme to improve the overall system efficiency while still meeting a given total harmonic distortion (THD) requirement without any hardware changes, achieved only by changes to the controller. In this article, it is analyzed...
