ABSTRACT:
A method of energizing a single-, three-, or poly-phase A.C. motor for continuously-variable speed control from a fixed-frequency supply of corresponding phase. Each phase is modulated by a continuously-variable modulation wave of sub-supply frequency to provide two continuously-variable sideband frequencies, either of which can be used to supply the motor. The modulation wave is sampled in each cycle of the A.C. supply and a full-wave rectified resultant modulation wave compared with a cosine wave of supply frequency. Each phase is gated by solid-state switch means for current flow from amplitude equality to next-following cosine zero. Optionally, secondary modulation, by a square wave of supply frequency, is used.
