A inverter is basically a device that usually converts DC to AC voltage without causing any power loss, applicable to only low to medium voltage applications. But in case of medium to high power applications, it has demerits like high switching losses, reduced cost and low efficiency. To overcome these demerits a Multilevel inverter applicable to high voltage and high-power applications which have low total harmonic distortion (THD) is introduced. This paper is mainly focused on seven-level inverter with five switches and four dc sources. with low total harmonic distortion, less switching loss without adding any complexity to the circuit. The switching topology is integrated with various SPWM techniques like Phase Disposition (PD), Phase Opposition Disposition (POD) and Anti Phase Opposition Disposition (APOD). For better performance of the inverter above three PWM techniques will be compared and analyzed to find the low THD configuration. The simulation of switching topology is done by MATLAB/Simulink.

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.

Multilevel inverters are widely used for high power and high voltage applications. The performance of multilevel inverters are superior to conventional two level inverters in terms of reduced total harmonic distortion, higher dc link voltages, lower electromagnetic interference and increased quality in the output voltage waveform. This paper presents a single phase hybrid eleven level multilevel inverter topology with reduced switch count to compensate the above mentioned disadvantages. This paper also presents various high switching frequency based multi carrier pulse width modulation strategies such as Phase Disposition PWM Strategy (PDPWM), Phase Opposition and Disposition PWM Strategy (PODPWM), Alternate Phase opposition Disposition PWM (APODPWM), Carrier Overlapping PWM (COPWM), Variable frequency carrier PWM (VFPWM), Third Harmonic Injection PWM (TFIPWM) applied to the proposed eleven level multilevel inverter and is analyzed for RL load. FFT analysis is carried out and total harmonic distortion, fundamental output voltage are calculated. Simulation is carried out in MATLAB/SMULINK.

And Control

A new circuit structure and control method for a high power interleaved dual-buck inverter are proposed. The proposed inverter consists of six switches, four diodes and two inductors, uses a dual-buck structure to eliminate zero-cross distortion, and operates in an interleaved mode to reduce the current stress of switch. To reduce the total harmonic distortion at low output power, the inverter is controlled using discontinuous-current-mode control combined with continuous-current-mode control. The experimental inverter had a power-conversion efficiency of 98.5% at output power = 1300 W and 98.3% at output power = 2 kW, when the inverter was operated at an input voltage of 400 VDC, output voltage of 220 VAC/60 Hz, and switching frequency of 20 kHz. The total harmonic distortion was < 0.66%, which demonstrates that the inverter is suitable for high-power dc-ac power conversion.
