The algorithm is based on curve fittings of a certain polynomials functions. The resulting equations require only the addition and multiplication processes; therefore, it can be implemented efficiently on a microprocessor. An extensive angle error analysis is carried out to determine the accuracy of the algorithm in comparison to the exact solution. To verify the workability of the technique, an experimental voltage source inerter was constructed. Since the proposed HEPWM algorithm is simple and fast, it is implemented using a low cost, 16-bit microprocessor. %U https://www.ije.ir/article_71831_37d339bb673252452de0c4efeb740d6c.pdf
