Description
Summary:On the basis of the space voltage vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) technique, the random pulse width modulation (RPWM) technique, which can reduce harmonics, is investigated based on the vector control system of permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) to address the problem of generating a large number of high-amplitude harmonics at the carrier frequency and its multiplier frequency. Firstly, the root causes of the large number of high-amplitude harmonics at the carrier frequency and its multiplier frequency are analyzed in depth, and the RPWM technique is explained in detail on how to reduce the amplitude of these harmonics effectively. Secondly, to address the problem of insufficient random performance in the traditional RPWM technique, an innovative optimization scheme is proposed, i.e., the introduction of a two-state Markov chain and, based on the immune algorithm for transition probability and random gain, the optimization of two key parameters. Ultimately, through experimental verification, the proposed method significantly improves the spectral distribution of the current waveform compared with the traditional RPWM, which makes the distribution more uniform and effectively reduces the high-amplitude harmonics concentrated near the carrier frequency and its octave frequency, thus enhancing the overall performance of the system.
