Synchronized space vector pulse width modulation (SSVPWM) is widely employed in high‐power AC drive systems. The existing methods are carrier‐based, in which the carrier ratio, position of samples, and switching sequences used to generate every sample for a given SSVPWM are settled, which causes two problems: (i) the control delay changes, and a voltage phase modulation error appears suddenly during transition between different SSVPWMs with different carrier ratios, which causes motor current spikes; (ii) due to the particular switching sequences, some kinds of SSVPWM cannot get into six‐step operation by overmodulation. This paper proposes an improved type of SSVPWM based on switching angles, in which the carrier ratio of a given SSVPWM can change flexibly, and the problems mentioned above can be solved. Theories including switching angle calculation, overmodulation strategy, carrier ratio setting principle, and transition rules between different SSVPWM modes are given in this paper. Meanwhile, the switching angles change linearly with modulation index which makes it easy to implement, and the modulation error in the overmodulation region is effectively limited so that the proposed scheme is suitable in the whole modulation index range. A case study of a 5.5‐kW experimental platform is presented to validate the proposed method. © 2024 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan and Wiley Periodicals LLC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
