Abstract

An adjustable frequency AC motor drive control system includes pulse width modulation control of an inverter coupled with the motor and a programmed microprocessor which generates a cosine wave in cooperation with a sine wave and a carrier wave to provide a synthesized sine wave voltage to the motor by controlling the conduction of power switches at a rate higher than the fundamental frequency of the sine wave voltage output.
