Cover Story: Grid-connected power electronics converters have been widely used in renewable energy conversion systems. Power devices’ fast switching can impose high-frequency common-mode voltages (HF-CMVs) onto the systems. Suitable space vector modulation (SVM) with reduced high-frequency common-mode voltages (HF-CMVs) for grid-connected current-source inverters (CSIs) has not been well investigated yet. In this study, the potential of active zero-state SVM (AZS-SVM) to suppress high-frequency common-mode voltages (HF-CMVs) is revealed and theoretically analyzed, which is different from existing approaches of modifying topology. A special five-segment sequence with an optimally selected third active space vector for AZS-SVM is proposed and applied for CSIs. View this paper
