In this paper, AC electric vehicle propulsion system(Converter/Inverter) using high power semiconductor, IPM(Intelligent Power module) is proposed. 2-Parallel operation of two PWM converter is adopted for increasing capacity of system and the VVVF inverter control is used a mixed control algorithm, where the vector control strategy at low speed region and slip-frequency control strategy at high speed region. The proposed propulsion system is verified by experimental results with a 1,350㎾ converter and 1,100㎸A inverter with four 210㎾ traction motors.
