Generic control method of multileg voltage-source-converters for fast practical implementation

A generic and simple control method is suggested for any multileg voltage-source-converter. A specific coding yields an inversion table allowing a fast practical implementation. Phase-to-phase voltage references have to be defined for such a table. This original control strategy is validated by experimental results for two-leg, three-leg, four-leg, and five-leg structures supplying balanced and unbalanced multiphase loads.
