<br/><br/> "This book presents the latest cutting-edge technology in high-power converters and medium voltage drives, and provides a complete analysis of various converter topologies, modulation techniques, practical drive configurations, and advanced control schemes. With technology advancements in semiconductor devices, high-power AC drives in a megawatt range are increasingly used in industries to conserve electric energy, increase productivity, and improve product quality." "This is a practical reference for academic researchers and engineers. It's liberal use of pedagogical aides also makes it an excellent graduate-level textbook."--BOOK JACKET.
