Comparison of Dual Z-Source inverter and DC-DC boosted PWM inverter for aircraft power generation system

Abstract

The Dual Z-Source inverter scheme with improved quality of the produced voltages is considered. Simulation results of the converter as a part of the aircraft variable-speed/ constant frequency power generation system are presented. The considered scheme is compared to that consisting of a Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM) voltage source inverter and a dc-dc boost converter.
