However, this modulation method has the issue of narrow pulses, which may affect the switching states and potentially lead to a short circuit in the inverter. To address this issue, this paper first analyzes two mechanisms and ranges of narrow pulse generation in a single\u2010phase NPC inverter. Then, a novel narrow\u2010pulses elimination strategy is proposed. The proposed strategy predicts the narrow pulses in advance and adjusts switching period to eliminate them. Additionally, the SOGI\u2010PLL is used to predict the current phase angle to solve the narrow pulses and distortion in the current zero\u2010crossing. Compared to existing narrow\u2010pulse elimination methods, the proposed strategy can completely eliminate narrow pulses, ensuring reliable circuit operation while maintaining high\u2010quality output waveform. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed strategy is validated through simulations and experiments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/cta.4576","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,4]],"date-time":"2025-05-04T19:21:33Z","timestamp":1746386493000},"page":"184-196","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["A Novel Narrow\u2010Pulses Elimination Strategy Based on Dead\u2010Time Elimination PWM for NPC Three\u2010level Inverter"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"54","author":[{"given":"Guopeng","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Automation Henan Polytechnic University  Jiaozuo China"},{"name":"Henan Key Laboratory of Intelligent Detection and Control of Coal Mine Equipment  Jiaozuo China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0004-0574-9392","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yibo","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Automation Henan Polytechnic University  Jiaozuo China"},{"name":"Henan Key Laboratory of Intelligent Detection and Control of Coal Mine Equipment  Jiaozuo China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zan","family":"Jia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Automation Henan Polytechnic University  Jiaozuo China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Dongdong","family":"Xu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Shanxi Coking Coal Group Co., Ltd  Taiyuan Shanxi China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xingguo","family":"Tan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Electrical Engineering and Automation Henan Polytechnic University  Jiaozuo China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","first-page":"1","volume-title":"2018 IEEE International Power Electronics and Application Conference and Exposition (PEAC)","author":"Zhang M.","year":"2018"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TPEL.2009.2016663"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/TIE.2020.2984421"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.23919\/IPEC.2018.8507481"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/ECCE.2019.8912580"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1109\/JESTPE.2023.3304338"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_8_1","first-page":"688","article-title":"A Novel Three\u2010Level SVPWM Algorithm Considering Neutral\u2010Point Control, Narrow\u2010Pulse Elimination and Dead\u2010Time Compensation","volume":"2","author":"Jin S.","year":"2004","journal-title":"4th International Power Electronics and Motion Control Conference, 2004.
