Abstract
A switching pattern determination unit in a control unit includes a modulation rate ensuring unit, a harmonic reducing unit, and a function combining unit, and sets a function f prescribing the relationship between each switching phase and a modulation rate, a function Y prescribing the relationship between each switching phase and the sum of squares of values obtained by multiplying a harmonic component of each order by a weighting coefficient of each order, and an evaluation function X formed from the function Y, the function f, and a weighting variable. Then, by a switching phase calculation unit and a switching pattern storage unit, each switching pattern according to each modulation rate m and each number of pulses is obtained and stored which ensures the modulation rate and reduces an addition value of harmonic components of respective orders.
