ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus are provided for compensating for a deviation in voltage output of a phase leg inverter when dead-time periods are inserted to prevent shoot-through failures. The method includes determining a pulse width for an input signal to the inverter such that the inverter voltage output is a desired amount. The pulse width is based on the non-inverted or inverted pulse sequences of two carrier signals and the polarity of current through the inverter. An amount of pulse width is added to the input signal when the current is positive, and an amount of pulse width is subtracted from the input signal when the current is negative. An additional amount of pulse width is added to or subtracted from the input signal depending on whether the carrier signal sequence changes from a non-inverted signal to an inverted signal or changes from an inverted signal to a non-inverted signal, respectively.
