The dead zone is needed in order to avoid shoot-through state, which causes the decline in the system security. With a unique X-shaped LC network, a Z-source inverter can gain boost ability and improve the reliability utilizing the shoot-through state. The topology of NPC five-level Z source inverter with two Z-source networks was proposed. Its shoot-through state was analyzed and the rationality of this topology structure was illustrated. Based on phase disposition (PD) pulse width modulation (PWM) algorithm of conventional NPC five-level inverter, a practicable PD PWM algorithm was designed for five -level Z source inverter. The simulation results demonstrate the rationality of this modulation method and the advantage of NPC five-level Z source inverter on improving the utilization rate of DC voltage. Keywords: Z source inverter, NPC five-level inverter, phase disposition PWM, utilization rate of DC voltage0 引 言 自从彭方正教授提出Z源逆变器[1]以及新加坡学者Loh P.C.提出三电平Z源逆变器的拓扑结构[2-4]后，针对Z源逆变器的研究取得了长足进步,产生了许多新的电路拓扑和控制方法[5-7]。但大多是针对两电平或三电平Z源逆变器的研究，鲜有对五电平Z源逆变器的研究。 为了充分利用五电平逆变器在输出功率高、谐波含量小、功率因数高等方面的显著优势[8-10]和Z源逆变器允许桥臂直通及单级升压的功能，文中将传统五电平和Z源逆变器相结合，研究了含有双Z源网络的NPC五电平逆变器。提出双Z源NPC五电平逆变器的拓扑结构，分析其工作原理，并说明此拓扑结构的合理性。通过在传统五电平逆变器的同相载波层叠PWM中合理的插入直通状态来达到直通升压的目的，仿真
