Eight-switch three-phase post-fault inverter (ESTPI) is widely used as the reconfigured topology of three-phase three-level neutral point clamped DC/AC inverter when open-circuit fault occurs. A key technical challenge for the ESTPI is the post-fault controller design. The existing post-fault control approaches for the ESTPI suffer from the difficulty in trading off the current tracking performance, neutral point voltage (NPV) balancing and common mode voltage (CMV) levels. To solve this problem, this paper proposes an improved predictive current control algorithm. The proposed algorithm contributes to achieve accurate output current tracking while greatly reducing the CMV with a balanced NPV. Simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
