Abstract: A controller of a power converter including an inverter that includes plural semiconductor switching elements. The controller suppresses an error between a voltage command and an inverter output voltage and responds to a voltage command at a high speed. The controller includes a voltage command generator that generates a voltage command signal and a switching pattern calculator that calculates and outputs, based on the voltage command signal, a switching pattern of a synchronous PWM system in which an average value of an inverter output voltage matches the voltage command signal.

Abstract: A controller that controls a switching element of an inverter using pulse width modulation is applied to a power converter including an inverter, to realize a stable change of a carrier frequency, current control responsiveness, and inverter loss suppression. The controller includes a carrier-frequency setting unit that sets a carrier frequency command used for pulse width modulation of an inverter corresponding to a current command and a current-command change rate. The carrier-frequency setting unit includes a carrier frequency map having mapped thereon information of a carrier frequency corresponding to a current command expressed in a vertical axis and a current-command change rate expressed in a lateral axis, and outputs information of a carrier frequency on the carrier frequency map corresponding to the input current command and the input current-command change rate to a switching pattern calculator.

Abstract: A control circuit for a power converter includes a voltage command unit that generates a voltage command signal, a voltage command compensation unit that compensates the voltage command signal to generate a compensatory voltage command signal, and a switching pattern arithmetic unit that generates a switching signal for each of semiconductor switching elements of the power converter based on the compensatory voltage command signal and a carrier wave. The conversional fundamental frequency of the power converter is f and the carrier frequency of the carrier wave is fc. The voltage command compensation unit generates a compensation signal including at least one compensatory frequency component of fc?n×f (where n denotes successive positive and negative integers), and generates the compensatory voltage command signal.
