SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING OPERATION OF INVERTER FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE

A system includes: an inverter including a first switch and a second switch; one or more controllers configured to control the inverter by performing operations, the operations including: generating a minimum pulse width value for a first pulse-width modulated (PWM) signal to control the first switch and for a second PWM signal to control the second switch; determining that an on-time pulse to be generated for the first PWM signal will be less than or equal to the minimum pulse width value for a period based on a first deadtime configuration; and in response to the determining: determining a second deadtime configuration for the first PWM signal and the second PWM signal for the period; and generating the first PWM signal and the second PWM signal based on the second deadtime configuration, to prevent the on-time pulse that is less than or equal to the minimum pulse width value.
