The multi level inverter system is habitually exploited in AC drives, when both reduced harmonic contents and high power are required. In this paper, a new topology for three phase asymmetrical multilevel inverter employing reduced number of switches is introduced. With less number of switches, the cost, space and weight of the circuit are automatically reduced. This paper discusses the new topology, the switching strategies and the operational principles of the chosen inverter. Simulation is carried out using MATLAB-SIMULINK. Various conventional PWM techniques that are appropriate to the chosen circuit such as PDPWM, PODPWM, APODPWM, VFPWM and COPWM are employed in this work. COPWM technique affords the less THD value and also affords a higher fundamental RMS output voltage.

The multilevel inverter is attracting the specialist in medium and high voltage applications, among its types, the cascade H bridge Multi-Level Inverter (MLI), commonly used for high power and high voltage applications. The main advantage of the conventional cascade (MLI) is generated a large number of output voltage levels but it demands a large number of components that produce complexity in the control circuit, and high cost. Along these lines, this paper presents a brief about the non-conventional cascade multilevel topologies that can produce a high number of output voltage levels with the least components. The non-conventional cascade (MLI) in this paper was built to reduce the number of switches, simplify the circuit configuration, uncomplicated control, and minimize the system cost. Besides, it reduces THD and increases efficiency. Two topologies of non-conventional cascade MLI three phase, the Nine level and Seventeen level are presented. The PWM technique is used to control the switches. The simulation results show a better performance for both topologies. THD, the power loss and the efficiency of the two topologies are calculated and drawn to the different values of the Modulation index (ma).

This paper examines how a Reversing voltage multilevel inverter (RVMLI) strategy is enforced to develop multilevel inverter fulfilment. This approach has been used SPWM-PD technique to regulate the electrical inverter. It desires numerous less range of carrier signals to deliver gate pulses of switches. Increasing within the levels during this strategy aid in reduction of output voltage harmonics expeditiously and improves power quality at output of the electrical inverter. It wants a lowered quantity of total switches, which is in a position to decreases of switching losses in this process. The Three-phase reversing voltage multilevel inverter of 7- level and 9- level is accomplished for R-load and R-L load and Three Phase Induction Motor. A reversing voltage multilevel inverter of 7- level and 9- level simulation is intended and developed. Mat lab/Simulink outcome is awarded to validate the proposed scheme.

This paper deals with a reduced switch multi-level inverter for the solar photovoltaic system-based 127-level multi-level inverter. The proposed technique uses the minimum number of switches to achieve the maximum steps in staircase AC output voltage when compared to the flying capacitor multi-level inverter, cascaded type multilevel inverter and diode clamped multi-level inverter. The use of a minimum number of switches decreases the cost of the system. To eliminate the switching losses, in this topology a square wave switch is used instead of pulse width modulation. Thereby the total harmonic distortion (THD) and harmonics have been reduced in the pulsating AC output voltage waveform. The performance of 127-level MLI is compared with 15 level, 31-level and 63-level multilevel inverters. The outcomes of the solar photovoltaic system-based 127-level multi-level inverter have been simulated in a MATLAB R2009b environment.

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.

For high power applications Multilevel Inverter (MLI) is extensively used. The major advantages of MLI are good power quality, low switching losses and maintenance of the desired voltage. In this work, the three phase cascaded multi level inverter is analyzed under various modulation techniques that include Sub-Harmonic Pulse Width Modulation (SHPWM) i.e. Phase Disposition (PD) strategy, Phase Opposition Disposition (POD) strategy, Alternate Phase Opposition Disposition (APOD) strategy, hybrid strategy (PD and PS) and Phase Shift (PS) strategy. The study will help to choose those techniques with reduced harmonics for the chosen three phase cascaded MLI with R-L load. The Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), VRMS (fundamental), crest factor and form factor are evaluated for various modulation indices at two different switching frequencies (3.15KHz and 6 KHz). Simulation is performed using MATLAB-SIMULINK. It is observed that HYBRID PWM and PSPWM methods provide output with relatively low distortion for low and high switching frequencies. PODPWM and PSPWM are found to perform better since they provide relatively higher fundamental RMS output voltage for 6 KHz and 3.15 KHz switching frequencies. The experimental result shows PSPWM provide output with low distortion and HYBRID PWM provide output with higher fundamental RMS voltage for fc=3.15KHz. The experimental results were obtained only for fc=3.15KHz.

Multilevel Inverters (MLI) have very good features when compared to Inverters. But using more switches in the conventional configuration will reduce its application in a wider range. For that reason a modified 7-level MLI Topology is presented. This new topology consists of less number of switches that can be reduced to the maximum extent and a separate gate trigger circuit. This will reduce the switching losses, reduce the size of the multilevel inverter, and cost of installation. This new topology can be used in Electrical drives and renewable energy applications. Performance of the new MLI is tested via. Total harmonic distortion. This construction structure of this multilevel inverter topology can also be increased for 9-level, 11-level and so on and simulated by the use of MATLAB/SIMULINK. A separate Carrier Based PWM Technique is used for the pulse generation in this configuration.

<p>In this study, the author analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of multi-level inverter compared to the traditional two-level inverter and then chose the suitable inverter. Specifically, the author analyzes and designs the three-level inverter, including the power circuit design and control circuit design. All designs are verified through the numerical simulation on Matlab. The results show that even though the three-level inverter has a low number of switches (only 12 switches), but the quality is very good: the total harmonic distortion is small; the output voltage always follows the reference voltage.</p>

A 9-level inverter with a boost converter has been controlled with a fuzzy logic controller and a PID controller for regulating output voltage applications on resistive (R) and inductive (L), capacitance (C). The mathematical model of this system is created according to the fuzzy logic controlling new high multilevel inverter with a boost converter. The DC-DC boost converter and the multi-level inverter are designed and explained, when creating a mathematical model after a linear pulse width modulation (LPWM), it is preferred to operate the boost multi-level inverter. The fuzzy logic control and the PID control are used to manage the LPWM that allows the switches to operate. The fuzzy logic algorithm is presented by giving necessary mathematical equations that have second-degree differential equations for the fuzzy logic controller. After that, the fuzzy logic controller is set up in the 9-level inverter. The proposed model runs on different membership positions of the triangles at the fuzzy logic controller after testing the PID controller. After the output voltage of the converter, the output voltage of the inverter and the output current of the inverter are observed at the MATLAB SIMULINK, the obtained results are analysed and compared. The results show the demanded performance of the inverter and approve the contribution of the fuzzy logic control on multi-level inverter circuits.
