Realization of an arduino-mega based space vector modulation controller

Abstract

This paper discusses the programming and the use of Arduino Mega, an open hardware microcontroller board in generating the Space Vector Modulation (SVM) for three phase inverters. The design can be used for interfacing renewable energy sources such as solar cells and fuel cells to ac utility grid directly. The low cost and easily programmable Arduino makes the renewable energy power system more economical and simple. The architecture and functions of Arduino Mega is explained briefly. The output results are verified using the simulation carried out in MATLAB Simulink. � 2016 IEEE.
