Abstract

Ina power conversion system having a fixed pulse pattern modulation unit 2 that is configured to refer to tables storing therein pulse patterns that determine respective command voltage levels corresponding to phase information for each modulation ratio and to generate a gate signal g on the basis of a command modulation ratio d and a control phase θ and driving a power converter 3 on the basis of the gate signal g, the fixed pulse pattern modulation unit 2 is further configured to, when performing a pulse pattern transition, search for a proper post-transition table reference position and make a command voltage level follow a command voltage level of a post-transition pulse pattern. With this, the power conversion system that can perform the pulse pattern transition without current impulse and that can also be applied to a multi-level power converter having four levels or more can be provided.
