| Abstract |
This paper describes an implementation of a DSP (Digital Signal Processor) controlled random carrier frequency modulation for the PWM inverter for acoustic noise reduction of induction motors. Real-time generation of the random variable and RPWM(Random PWM) along with the speed control was achieved by DSP TMS320C31. The experimental results show that the voltage and current harmonics are spread to a wide band area and the power spectrum of the acoustic switching noise was spread to create a more appealing, less annoying sound. Also, the speed response of the implemented method and the conventional method is nearly similar to each other from the viewpoint of the v/f constant control. |
