Abstract
Disclosed is a device for controlling an inverter. The device achieves a minimum switching loss in a discontinuous modulation duration regardless of a power factor. The device includes: a command voltage transform unit configured for transforming each of 3 phases command voltages into each of pole command voltages using the DC stage voltage, a pulse width modulation index, a discontinuous modulation angle corresponding to a discontinuous modulation duration, and each phase difference between each of the 3 phase command voltages and each of 3 phases output currents of the inverting module; and a controller configured for generating a control signal based on a comparison between each pole command voltage and a triangular carrier wave, wherein the control signal controls upper and lower switching elements of each phase leg.
