A Review of Carrier Based Modulation Techniques

S. P. Awate

Abstract: A review of different carrier based pulse width modulation techniques is presented in this paper. These modulation techniques are used for switching the power electronic devices which are used in inverters and converters. A detailed explanation of pulse width modulation techniques with their principle of operation, advantages and disadvantages is described. The modulation technique which helps in reducing the total harmonic distortion is generally employed.
