In this paper, a new control scheme to use 6-switch inverters for 3-phase switched reluctance motors (SRM) is proposed. Compared with the conventional asymmetric converter topology, it can minimize the entire system size and cost and can increase the efficiency. Therefore, it may have a new topology for SRM to compete the other ac motors, such as induction motors, brushless dc motors, and so on. The validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation, and experimental results.
