In medium-/high-power inverters, optimal pulse-width modulation (OPWM) is often used to reduce the switching frequency and at the same time, realize selective harmonic elimination (SHE). For both two-level and multilevel inverters, most selective harmonic elimination (SHE) studies are based on solving multiple variable high-order nonlinear equations. Furthermore, for multilevel inverters, SHE has been often studied based on the assumption of balanced dc levels and single switching per level. In this paper, the authors further developed harmonics injection and equal area criteria-based four-equation method to realize OPWM for two-level inverters and multilevel inverters with unbalanced dc sources. For the cases, where only small number of voltage levels are available, weight oriented junction point distribution is utilized to enhance the performance of the four-equation method. A case study of multilevel inverter at low-modulation index is used as an example. Compared with existing methods, the proposed method does not involve complex equation groups and is much easier to be utilized in the case of large number of switching angles, or multiple switching angles per voltage level in multilevel inverters.
