Abstract
Systems and methods for current ripple reduction for a direct current (DC) source powering an alternating current (AC) load. In accordance with one embodiment, the system and method involve interleaved operation of a 3×3-phase AC motor having multiple groups of windings. In accordance with another embodiment, the system and method involve interleaved operation of multiple co-shafted 3-phase AC motors. In accordance with a further embodiment, the system and method involve interleaved operation multiple 3-phase AC motors (not co-shafted) of the same level of power. The interleaved operation entails interleaved switching inside a set of inverters which are connected in parallel between a DC bus and the windings of the AC motor (motors).
