Based on the intrinsic relationship between SVPWMs for two-level inverters and three-level inverters, a novel SVPWM control algorithm is proposed for three-level. The dwell time of voltage vector for three-level inverter can be acquired from counterpart for two-level inverter by using a linear transformation. Aiming to analysis the output PWM sequence of three-level inverter, a novel classification standard of voltage vector is proposed. Based on evaluating the PWM sequences, a novel PWM sequence is given, that can reduce the total harmonics distortion of inverter output. The control strategy can be extended to five or seven-level inverters easily. At last, the proposed algorithm is verified on prototype in laboratory.
