Summary: This article investigates the discontinuous nature of SVPDM schemes and proposes five types of DSVPDM schemes based on selection of zero vectors. The optimized zero vector selection is found through analysis. The performances of the proposed DSVPDM schemes are compared with existing SVPDM and popular space vector based discontinuous pulse width modulation schemes, and validated on a real-time interface platform.

Summary: This article proposes a simplified space vector pulse density modulation (SVPDM) scheme for any odd-level inverter-based induction motor drive. The control strategy uses three sigma delta modulators, wherein the reference space vector is vector quantized to generate the output switching vectors. Compared with the SVPWM scheme, the proposed SVPDM scheme has advantages such as freedom from minimum pulsewidth problem, improved spectral features, convenience of digital implementation.

Summary: This article proposes a new modulation strategy for a five-phase high-frequency voltage source inverter based on sigma-delta modulators. The strategy achieves the same switching states as the traditional large-medium-large-medium space vector modulation using sigma-delta modulation, which operates efficiently at high switching frequencies using wide-bandgap devices. The proposed modulation techniques minimize switching losses, mitigate low-order harmonics, decrease the amplitude of high-frequency harmonics, and reduce common-mode voltage dv/dt transitions.

Summary: Various Sigma-Delta modulation techniques are proposed and evaluated to reduce the maximum peak-to-peak amplitude of common-mode voltage in a high-frequency voltage source inverter. These techniques achieve high-efficiency converter operation, output voltage with low total harmonic distortion, reduction in CMV amplitude and transitions, and decrease in conducted EMI amplitude. The use of single-loop and double-loop Sigma-Delta modulators is analyzed and experimentally evaluated.

Summary: This paper proposes an adaptive A/D conversion scheme that identifies the presence or absence of a high frequency component in a given block of samples by formulating it as a hypothesis testing problem. The proposed scheme performs better in terms of compression compared to a scheme designed for the worst case while retaining the same guarantees on the reconstruction error.

Summary: This article presents two novel digital predistortion architectures that can mitigate the impairments in inphase/quadrature modulators and power amplifiers in wireless transmitters. The proposed architectures offer versatile linearization capabilities while using low-cost digital-to-analog converters, and they support the use of low-resolution DACs for designing low-cost and energy-efficient radio transmitters. Extensive hardware-in-the-loop RF verification measurements demonstrate the excellent linearization capabilities of the proposed solutions.

Summary: In this paper, the digital mobile fronthaul architecture enabled by noise-coupling sturdy-multistage noise-shaping modulator is experimentally demonstrated and investigated. The noise-shaping capability of the modulator is verified by modulating orthogonal frequency division multiplexing component carriers to pulse-amplitude-modulation signal and transmitting them over optical links. The proposed modulator achieves better receiver sensitivity and reduces the number of adders and multipliers compared to previous methods. Additionally, filter-bank-multicarrier technique is demonstrated and investigated with reduced guard band and improved receiver sensitivity.

Summary: Manifold models are increasingly important in data analysis and signal processing. This paper focuses on one specific task in modern signal processing, which is the analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion using Sigma-Delta modulation. The paper addresses the issue of mismatches and large errors in classical Sigma-Delta schemes when the signal is defined on a circle. The authors propose an updated scheme based on reconstruction error analysis that improves the accuracy of the reconstruction.

Summary: This letter proposes a novel modulation method for the indirect matrix converter (IMC) by decoupling the rectifier and inverter, greatly simplifying the modulation of the IMC. The inverter uses a space vector modulation without a zero-voltage vector to adjust the phase of the output voltage vector, while the rectifier adopts a novel delta-sigma method to modulate the input current vector phase and dc-link voltage. The duty cycles of the inverter are obtained by looking up a table of reference output voltages and updated at a 5-kHz carrier cycle, while the switching states of the rectifier change once per cycle at a 40-kHz sampling frequency. Simulations and experimental results are presented to validate the proposed method.

Summary: This article proposes a generalized online switching scheme for multilevel inverter based on direct vector quantized space vector pulse density modulation (DVQSVPDM), suitable for adjustable speed drive. The proposed DVQSVPDM reduces spurious switching and improves performance at lower modulation index by reducing total harmonic distortion (THD) of common mode voltage (CMV). The proposed scheme works for all n-level inverter topologies and the computations required remain the same irrespective of the level of inverter.
