60 or 50 Hz or even lower

What is the benefit of using a higher switching frequency in a PWM converter?

It decreases the L-C filter energy storage requirement

What is the function of the triangular carrier signal in a PWM switching scheme?

To generate the PWM pulses for switching devices on and off.

How does the frequency of the triangular wave relate to the switching frequency in a PWM converter?

The frequency of the triangular wave is equal to the switching frequency for turning devices on and off.

What is the purpose of the sinusoidal control voltage in a PWM converter?

To set the desired ac output frequency.

What is the advantage of using a higher switching frequency in terms of filter design?

It results in lower L-C filter energy storage requirements.

How does the modulation process work in a PWM switching scheme?

By combining a high frequency carrier signal with a low frequency control signal.
