<span lang="EN-US">This paper observe the total harmonic distortion (THD) performance of single phase five level inverter using proportional resonant (PR) and harmonic compensators current controller. The THD when adding PR current controller was 1.6% at first. After more functions were added to the PR current controller to reduce the THD at the 3<sup>rd</sup>, 5<sup>th</sup> and 7<sup>th</sup> harmonic orders, the THD of the 3<sup>rd</sup> harmonic order was reduced from 0.45% to 0.1% while the 5<sup>th</sup> and 7<sup>th</sup> harmonic orders were reduced from 0.6% and 0.43% to 0.25% and 0.4% respectively. The development and simulation is performed using Matlab/Simulink. The simulation result is performed by using Fast Fourier Transform analysis (FFT) for the harmonics captured.</span>

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.

Abstract: This project presents the simulation of “transformer based cascaded multilevel inverter with reduced number of switches” with R-load and. It has the advantages of reduced number of switches and dc sources compared to conventional configurations and consequently higher efficiency. The simulation is accomplished for one stage (3-level), two stage (5-level, 7- level, 9-level), three stage (7-level, 11-level, 15-level, 19-level, 27-level) and four stage (29-level, 31-level, 33-level, 35-level). And their performance is analysed in terms of THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) for output voltages and currents. The FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) analysis is used in order to evaluate the harmonic distortion. The simulation is carried out by using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. Index Terms: cascaded asymmetric multilevel inverter, transformer-based cascaded multilevel inverter, balance of power distribution.

Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) adalah salah satu parameter yang menyatakan kualitas dari sebuah sinyal listrik yang hendak dipergunakan dibandingkan dengan sinyal sinusoidal murni. THD adalah suatu ukuran yang menyatakan seberapa besar sinyal yang tidak lagi berbentuk seperti aslinya. Dengan Analisa Fourier, besarnya THD dinyatakan sebagai perbandingan dari rata-rata geometris dari akar jumlah kuadrat harmonisa terhadap fundamental frekuensinya. Penelitian ini bertujuan membangun sebuah alat pengukur THD dengan memanfaatkan microcontroller AVR untuk menghitung THD secara digital. Perhitungan Harmonisa sinyal dalam deret Fourier tidak dilakukan degan cara tradisional, tetapi dilakukan dengan algoritma Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Algoritma ini secara komputasi numeris akan memberikan kecepatan hitung yang lebih baik dibanding dengan perhitungan tradisional. Uji coba alat dilakukan dengan menggunakan beberapa bentuk sinyal, kemudian hasilnya akan dibandingkan dengan hasil yang dihitung dengan computer. Hasil uji coba menunjukkan bahwa metode ini dapat mampu memberikan akurasi pengukuran besarnya THD dari sebuah sinyal dengan baik.

Inverters are commonly controlled to generate AC current and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) is the core index in judging the control effect. In this paper, a THD oriented Finite Control Set Model Predictive Control (FCS MPC) scheme is proposed for the single-phase inverter, where a optimization problem is solved to obtain the switching law for realization. Different from the traditional cost function, which focuses on the instantaneous deviation of amplitude between predictive current and its reference, we redesign a cost function that is the linear combination of the current fundamental tracking error, instantaneous THD value and DC component in one fundamental cycle (for 50 Hz, it is 0.02 s). Iterative method is developed for rapid calculation of this cost function. By choosing a switching state from a FCS to minimize the cost function, a FCS MPC is finally constructed. Simulation results in Matlab/Simulink and experimental results on rapid control prototype platform show the effect of this method. Analyses illustrate that, by choosing suitable weight of the cost function, the performance of this THD oriented FCS MPC method is better than the traditional one.

The most concerns in the inverter's design are about, how to make the output voltage of the inverter sinusoidal at the desired fundamental frequency with low total harmonic distortion (THD). This paper presents a design and implementation of single-phase five-level inverter which is powered by single dc source and based on T-type multi-level inverters construction. The proposed inverter is built mainly by six IGBTs and two diodes. The used modulation technique is based on using two triangular carriers at 2000 Hz frequency and shifted by phase opposition disposition (POD) method. The carriers are made slightly unbalanced with their amplitudes. The over-modulation method is also introduced in the design to get the lowest possible THD effect without using filters. The inverter is simulated by MATLAB SIMULINK, implemented practically, and tested with the help of LabVIEW software.
