Abstract
An efficient and reliable power conversion method for converting an input voltage which is a single-phase AC voltage into output voltages forming a two-phase AC voltage includes: receiving an input voltage; designating, as a first target voltage representing consecutive target values of a first-phase output voltage and a second target voltage representing consecutive target values of a second-phase output voltage, AC voltages forming a two-phase AC voltage and having (i) an amplitude 1/√2 times smaller than an amplitude of the input voltage, and (ii) phase differences of +45 degrees and −45 degrees relative to the input voltage; and designating a frequency other than a frequency twice a frequency of the input voltage, as a frequency of the first target voltage and the second target voltage.
