The performance of the T-type, 3-level inverter is analyzed with a three-phase induction motor load under the open-circuit fault condition of the inverter. The voltage space vectors of the three-level inverter under the open switch fault (open circuit fault) condition in any one leg of the three-phase inverter is analyzed and modified using the SVPWM adopted to overcome the problems of sudden stall at open switch fault conditions. Modelling and simulation of T-type 3-level inverter using proposed modified space vector pulse width modulation is carried out in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. The experimental results are presented here for verification of the simulation results using real-time simulator (dSPACE 1103).

These systems are time varying and nonlinear, as a result the performance is a primary issue for this type of systems. In this work tracking of trajectory for robotic manipulator is obtained with different sift computing techniques. The optimal value PID is obtained through Gray Wolf Optimization (GWO) and this value is compared with another optimization which is Antlion (ALO). The obtained results are demonstrated on performance indices of time domain. The final simulation results show that GWO with integral time absolute error gives the best optimal value for PID controller than ALO.

When compared with the basic 2-level voltage source inverters, the multilevel inverter has been found superior due to reduced electromagnetic compatibility and lesser harmonic distortion. In this paper, a novel multilevel inverter, which uses fewer numbers of total components as compared with the existing inverters (especially for higher levels), has been suggested. Hence, the total cost is reduced and complexity is also reduced for higher voltage levels. The comparison has been done regarding number of DC sources, switches, and diodes. The topology is simulated for 19-level employing SPWM as the control strategy, being simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment and validated this simulation by using real-time digital simulator (OP-5600).

The grid tied inverter consists of several five-level hybrid inverter modules which are connected to the solar PV panels having equal DC voltage magnitudes. The proposed control technique for the multilevel inverter generate the near-sinusoidal current with near-unity power factor to the grid and balance the capacitor voltages across the DC links. The voltage and frequency of the multilevel inverter can be adjusted using closed loop control, such that, the maximum power flow to the grid can be achieved even under varying grid voltage. The performance of the complete system has been verified under different transient states. Experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

One of the major advantages of the proposed grid-tied PV system using the six switches 9-level inverter over other existing topologies is that the number of conducting switches is only two for obtaining any voltage level.

A closed-loop current control technique is developed to balance the DC-link voltage in the ratio of 1:2. An experimental prototype of the proposed 9-level inverter-based PV system is developed in the laboratory demonstrate effectiveness of the control technique and to validate the simulation results.
