Abstract In this article different multi-level inverter (MLI) configuration is introduced by a decreased quantity of power elements. At the output side the MLI topology generates the seven level voltage waveform with minimum number of components. The said topology configuration requires less dc voltage and power semiconductor switches. It also reduces the voltage block on switches, which reduces the inverter topology complexity and costs. Such capabilities were discovered by contrasting the topology to traditional topologies from the above perspectives. Testing were carried out to demonstrate the efficacy of the generalized MLI topology in both simulation and hardware, and the findings are presented for better understanding.

Multi-level inverter is attaining higher AC power using a series of power semiconductor switches with numerous lower voltage DC sources to implement the power conversion by synthesizing a staircase voltage waveform. Sources like super capacitors, batteries, solar panels and other renewable energy voltage sources make up the multiple DC voltage sources. This work looks at the advantages and likely disadvantage of multi-level inverter, highlighting some of the shortfalls of existing inverter topologies while considering the effects of emerging Hybrid MLI Topologies. Hence this review paper proposes a distinctive seven level cascaded H-bridge multi-level inverter configuration in which the POD PWM technique is adopted. This design would potentially redress the problems inherent in other inverter circuit topologies reviewed.

Multilevel inverter (MLI) has become more popular in high power, high voltage industries owing to its high quality output voltage waveform. This paper proposes a novel single phase extendable type MLI topology. The term ‘extendable’ is included since the presented topology can be extended with maximum number of dc voltage sources to synthesize larger output levels. This topology can be operated in both symmetrical and asymmetrical conditions. The major advantages of the proposed inverter topology include minimum switching components, reduced gate driver circuits, less harmonic distortion and reduced switching losses. The comparative analysis based on the number of switches, dc voltage sources and conduction switches between the proposed topology and other existing topologies is presented in this paper. The comparison results show that the proposed inverter topology requires fewer components. The performance of the proposed MLI topology has been analyzed in both symmetrical and asymmetrical conditions. The simulation model is developed using MATLAB/SIMULINK software to verify the performance of the proposed inverter topology and also the feasibility of the presented topology during the symmetrical condition has been validated experimentally.

<p><span lang="EN-US">This paper proposes a new optimal high level multilevel inverter with minimum number of components. This multi level inverter (MLI) is designed with series combination of basic units which can generate positive levels at output. DC source values applied for each basic unit is different with another. An H bridge is connected across proposed MLI for generating negative levels along with positive levels at output and that inverter considered as proposed high level optimal multilevel inverter. Single unit is responsible producing 21 levels. Therefore six units are connected in cascaded form to increase number of levels as 127 at output. Decrease in the number of power switches, driver circuits, and dc voltage sources are the improvement of the proposed MLI. Sinusoidal multiple pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique is implemented to produce pulses for turning ON switches according requirement. Low total harmonic distortion at output voltage or current production is major advantage of proposed module. The validations of proposed MLI results are verified through MATLAB/SIMULINK.</span></p>

The project introduces a simple, low-cost agricultural pumping system. PV, Canonical Switching Cell Converter (CSCC), Boost Inverter and Motor Induction List. The input power of the booster inverter comes from CSV-based photovoltaic (PV). Requires a minimum number of current input elements that do not have the high characteristic power of a CSC converter. DC power conversion from a PV-converted CSV-based system to high voltage AC is achieved using inverter reinforcements. The system verified the maximum power output in the PV system using the P&O MPPT algorithm. Due to the CSC converter and the inverter boosting converter, this system requires a small number of PV series to start the induction motor pump system. The effectiveness of the proposed system will be verified by the MATLAB / SIMULINK environment and the required results will be displayed.

<p>This paper presents an approach to minimize the harmonics contained in the input current of single phase Modified Half Bridge Resonant inverter fitted induction heating equipment. A switch like IGBT, GTO, and MOSFET are used for this purpose. It analyzes the harmonics or noise content in the sinusoidal input current of this inverter. Fourier Transform has been used to distinguish between the fundamental and the harmonics, as it is a better investigative tool for an unknown signal in the frequency domain. An exhaustive method for the selection of different power semiconductor switches for Modified Half Bridge Resonant inverter fed induction heater is presented. Heating coil of the induction heater is made of litz wire which reduces the skin effect and proximity effect at high operating frequency. With the calculated optimum values of input current of the system at a particular operating frequency, Modified Half Bridge Resonant inverter topology has been simulated using P-SIM software. To obtain the Input current waveforms through it, further analysis has been employed. From this analysis selection of suitable power semiconductor switches like IGBT, GTO and MOSFET are made. Waveforms have been shown to justify the feasibility for real implementation of single phase Modified Half Bridge Resonant inverter fed induction heater in industrial application.</p>

Multilevel inverters are proficient in achieving a high-quality staircase output voltage waveform with a lower amount of harmonic content. In this paper, a new hybrid multilevel inverter topology based on the T-type and H-bridge module is presented. The proposed topology aims to achieve a higher number of levels utilizing a lower number of switches, direct current (dc) voltage sources, and voltage stresses across different switches. The basic unit of the proposed single T-type and double H-bridge multilevel inverter (STDH-MLI) produces 15 levels at the output using three dc voltage sources. The proposed topology can be extended by connecting a larger number of dc voltage sources in the T-type section. The nearest level control (NLC) switching technique is used to generate gate pulses for switches to achieve a high-quality output voltage waveform. In addition, a simplified way to achieve NLC is also described in the paper. A detailed comparison with other similar topologies is provided to set the benchmark of the proposed topology. Finally, experimental work is carried out to validate the performance of the proposed topology.
