Abstract
A multiphase electric motor system and a method for controlling a multiphase electric motor system are disclosed. The method for controlling the multiphase electric motor system includes modulating a plurality of carrier signals with a plurality of modulation signals in order to generate a multiphase motor supply signal having a modulated phase signal for each phase of the electric motor. A set of time windows is defined in each period of the multiphase motor supply signal, where an individually selected group of modulated phase signals is modified by delaying the associated carrier signal in each time window, thereby generating a shifted multiphase motor supply signal and providing an efficient DC bus ripple reduction. Hereby, it is e.g. possible to use small filter capacitors/capacitor banks in electrical motor systems. An analogous multiphase electric generator system and method for controlling a multiphase electric generator system are disclosed.
