Model selection has received much attention and significantly developed in the recent decades.When statistical modeling is utilized to analyze the data set and make predictions, it is always natural to ask whether the candidate model fitted is a good model or not. This question is to be investigated and answered by the process of model selection. The challenge of model selection
The high-frequency modulation method (HFM) for a switched capacitor (SC) inverter often leads to high switching loss since it increases switching frequency. In order to reduce the switching frequency and switching loss in the HFM for SC inverter, this paper proposes a novel hybrid modulation strategy as well as a corresponding demo switched capacitor topology. The hybrid strategy limits the number of high-frequency switches, thus reducing the switching loss significantly. Meanwhile, the demo topology maintains the merits of current switched capacitor inverter such as low switch count, quadruple voltage-boosting ability and self-balancing capacity. The principle of the hybrid modulation method and the circuit configuration of the inverter are analyzed in detail. And comparisons are introduced to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed modulation method and topology. Finally, experimental results have proved the feasibility of the proposed inverter.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
