Abstract: It is known that if harmonic spectra are decreased, then
acoustic noise also decreased. Hence, this paper deals with a new
random switching strategy using DSP TMS320F2812 to decrease the
harmonics spectra of single phase switched reluctance motor. The
proposed method which combines random turn-on, turn-off angle
technique and random pulse width modulation technique is shown. A
harmonic spread factor (HSF) is used to evaluate the random
modulation scheme. In order to confirm the effectiveness of the new
method, the experimental results show that the harmonic intensity of
output voltage for the proposed method is better than that for
conventional methods.
