Abstract
The use of a model predictive control algorithm to reduce the losses in a 3L-NPC inverter with SiC neutral point diodes was investigated. It considers the reduced switching losses associated with the commutations that involve a SiC diode. A loss reduction of 5% is achieved compared to a standard sine-triangle modulation.
