Abstract

In calculation 3 phase AC output current Iu, Iv,Iw of an inverter based on the input DC current Idc of the inverter, it is difficult to detect the DC current Idc when the line-to-line voltage pulse width is narrow, thereby the DC current Idc pulse width becomes narrower.The frequency Fc of the carrier wave C is lowered in a phase whose line-to-line voltage is high, thereby the DC current Idc pulse width is set wider. As a result, the current detection is enabled.
