dc.titleMultilevel inverter based wireless power transferen_US
dcterms.abstractIn high-power wireless charging systems for electric vehicles, flying capacitor multilevel inverters (FCMLIs) offer promising performance but suffer from criti­cal stability issues when relying on closed-loop control based on ADC sampling. Sampling failure or noise can cause capacitor voltage imbalance, leading to circuit-level instability and potential topological collapse. To address this challenge, this paper proposes a five-level FCMLI topology featuring wide-range output voltage control under Pulse Magnitude Modulation (PMM), derived from Delta-Sigma principles. A topology-level passive capacitor voltage self-balancing mechanism is implemented using a hybrid clamping circuit and open-loop modulation strat­egy, eliminating the dependence on real-time feedback. Furthermore, it is iden­tified that PMM may cause limit-cycle oscillations, which further induce capacitor imbalance. To mitigate this, a dithering method adapted from communication systems is introduced to suppress limit cycles and enhance system stability. The proposed system is validated through theoretical analysis, simulation, and experi­mental tests at 200V, demonstrating enhanced modulation stability, robust voltage balancing, and high output controllability without reliance on closed-loop ADC feedback.en_US
