Multilevel inverters have been gaining immense popularity in high power applications such as Electric vehicles, Flexible AC Transmission Systems etc. This paper focuses on an asymmetric cascaded multilevel inverter employing the variable frequency carrier phase shifted PWM technique. The major advantage of this strategy is that it aids in balancing the switch utilization. The proposed strategy was found to have lower THD and switching losses when compared to the conventional strategies. The simulation was performed using MATLAB/Simulink and the results were verified experimentally.

Currently, induction motors are widely used in industry because have a high potential for the efficiency improvement. Therefore, a topic of interest to the industry is to reduce the energy consumption of induction motors, as they represent almost half of the total electrical energy consumption in the world. The energy consumption of electric motors can be reduced by using motors that are more efficient and by using power converters to feed the motors, thereby enabling accurate control according to the load. The function of the power converter is to modify the intrinsic characteristics of the induction motor (speed and torque). There are different topologies of the power converter commonly called inverter for induction motors. An inverter requires a modulation strategy for its operation, there are several modulation strategies that are used in the induction converter-motor assembly. This paper presents the comparative analysis of the influence of the phase disposition modulation (PD-PWM) strategy with different modulation indices, on parameters related to the output signal of a seven-level cascaded multilevel inverter as well as on the nominal working conditions of a three-phase induction motor.
