The battery is the only power source of full electric vehicles, and the converter plays a key role in power and signal conversion; therefore, the stability and reliability of the converter determine the performance of the whole vehicle system. In order to improve the overall performance of the converter and optimize the function of the ID-NPC (improved diode neutral-point-clamped) topology with power allocation, the two-level topology is improved, and it is also a part of the ID-NPC topology. Based on the ID-NPC topology, the converter level can switch according to the proposed three-level and two-level modulation conversion strategies, which extends the fault-tolerant function of the converter. Finally, a simulation and experimental platform is built to verify the function of the improved topology and the feasibility of the proposed modulation strategy.
