<p>This paper proposes a switching control for a cascaded H-bridge inverter structure with reduced switches which is used to improve the THD performance of a single phase five level CHB MLI. The multi level inverter is simulated for the conventional carrier overlapping APOD and the proposed carrier overlapping APOD Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) switching control technique. The total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output voltages are observed for both PWM control techniques. The performance of the symmetric CHB MLI is simulated using MATLAB-SIMULINK. It is observed that the proposed carrier overlapping APODPWM provides output with relatively low THD as compared to the conventional carrier overlapping APODPWM.</p>

Recently, almost all industrial devices are mostly built on electronic devices which are precisely sensitive to harmonic. In order to meet the requirement from the industries demand aimed at a free-harmonics and high power rating source is remarkably increased in past few years. An inverter which a device or electric circuit that convert direct current to alternating current is one of the electronic devices that give concern to researchers for improvement of generating a neat power source. The inverter can be categorized into a single level and multilevel inverter. As compared to single level inverter, multilevel inverter offers minimum harmonic distortion and higher power output. This paper presents a model of multilevel inverter using 7-level Cascaded H-Bridge of multilevel DC-AC inverter to reduce total harmonic distortion with different sinusoidal pulse width modulation such as phase disposition and phase opposition disposition. Simulation output of single phase multilevel inverter cascaded H-bridge are analysed and verified in the Matlab/Simulink software. The result show that the 7-level cascaded H-Bridge multilevel inverter with phase disposition technique generate less total harmonic distortion if it is compared to the phase opposition disposition technique.

In this paper, single phase nine level cascaded multilevel inverter using trinary voltage source is described. Normally for getting nine level MLI output, four H-Bridges are required. But in proposed method, nine level output is achieved by using two H-Bridges only. Performance of Multilevel inverter is improved by using modular switching pattern. This method reduces the number of switches to the half and thus reduces switching losses. Since the number of levels at the output voltage is increased, Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) gets reduced significantly. This presents simple configuration is simple and can be controlled easily. MATLAB-SIMULINK is used to validate the results of proposed technic, simulation is carried out using. The proposed method has been exhaustively compared with classical cascaded H-Bridge topology.
