Popis: Low voltage stress on the impedance source network devices is the main reason for the advent of DC-linked type quasi-switched boost inverters (DqSBIs). However, the DqSBI has become less attractive due to its low voltage gain. This paper presents a novel PWM control strategy for the DqSBI and its comparative performance evaluation to the conventional inverters. The modified PWM control strategy based DqSBI improves the voltage gain and reduces the conduction loss and the inductor current ripple. Circuit analysis and comparison study between the DqSBI, the quasi-Z-source inverters, and the two-stage inverter with a boost DC-DC converter are presented. 1-kVA three-phase inverter prototypes were set up to compare and evaluate the performance of the DqSBI with the improved PWM method for voltage gains of 0.85 to 1.6. The measured efficiency and total harmonic distortion (THD) values are also presented.
