The space vector modulation (SVM) method was recently proposed and captured the interest of scientific research in the following years. In this paper, besides a brief review of the SVM methods proposed in the literature, a new SVM strategy based on the calculation of the minimum (Min) and maximum (Max) of three-phase voltages is proposed. The proposed SVM technique does not have to calculate the sector and angle, as is done in the traditional SVM technique. Therefore, it is the easiest technique to accomplish compared to the traditional SVM method and other existing methods. Compared with the traditional pulse width modulation (PWM), the advantage of using this new SVM strategy is that the scheme is simple and the total harmonic distortion (THD) value in the output of the two-level inverter is minimized. The technology has been simulated by MATLAB/Simulink, and then implemented on a real traditional two-level inverter using the dSPACE card. It is worth reporting the reduction obtained for THD using the proposed SVM technique (where THD is about 70%) compared to the traditional PWM technique (where THD is about 79.5%).
