International Journal of Power Electronics and Drive System (IJPEDS), 2018
This paper deals with the design of cascaded 11 level H- bridge inverter. It includes a comparison between the 11 level H-bridge and T-bridge multilevel inverter. The cascaded inverter of higher level is a very effective and practical solution for reduction of total harmonic distortion (THD).These cascaded multilevel inverter can be used for higher voltage applications with more stability. As the level is increased the output waveform becomes more sinusoidal in nature. The inverter is designed using multicarrier sinusoidal pulse width modulation technique for generating triggering pulses for the semiconductor switches used in the device. Through this paper it will be proved that a cascaded multilevel H-bridge topology has higher efficiency than a T-bridge inverter, as whichever source input voltage is provided since input is equal to the output voltage. In T-bridge inverter, the output obtained is half of the applied input, so efficiency is just half as compared to H-bridge. The output waveform is distorted and has higher THD. The simulation is performed using MATLAB /Simulink 2013 software.

Multilevel inverters are becoming more popular in the power conversion systems for high power and power quality demanding applications. The MATLAB based simulation on SIMULINK platform is presented for the Single Phase five level cascaded H-bridge Multilevel Inverter (CHB-MLI) topology with less number of switches and with different control schemes and Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM) schemes. A detailed comparison of various control schemes is presented in this paper with reference to Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in the output voltage and utilization factor of the power devices. It is observed that among all the control schemes, the THD is minimum in the Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation-Phase Disposition (SPWM-PD) scheme with variable carrier wave magnitude.

Harmonic Reduction Using Multilevel Inverter Concepts
Solar energy sources are widely available, but in the form of DC source. It is connected in distribution system by means of converting DC/AC supply. It is achieved by means of inverter. To get efficient AC source we use multilevel inverter (MLI). The popularly used inverter is cascaded H-bridge MLI. As the step increases, the AC output nearly becomes same as sinusoidal. The purpose of the project is achieving nearly sinusoidal waveform, so that the grid interfacing is easily connected with 3 phase 4 wire distribution system. We can compare the THD values of symmetrical and Asymmetrical cascaded H bridges. This scheme is demonstrated with MATLAB/SIMULINK.

Z-source based multilevel inverters are the recent topologies as they have boosting ability and near sinusoidal output waveforms. This paper proposes different inverter topologies such as Z-source multilevel inverter and quasi Z-source multilevel inverter. This paper also deals with switched inductor and improved switched inductor topologies with quasi Z-network. The proposed switched inductor system reduces the voltage stresses caused by capacitors, power devices and diodes. In addition to multilevel inverter advantages, the proposed configuration employs Z-source inverter advantages. The Z-source inverter as compared to the traditional inverter is less costly, less complex, more efficient and more reliable. The performance of the proposed configurations is analysed by varying passive elements in impedance network and is simulated in MATLAB/SIMULINK. Phase disposition (PD) pulse width modulation (PWM) technique is applied on the proposed configurations and performance parameters are measured by the fast Fourier transform FFT analysis. The object of this paper is to develop an inverter which is used for variable speed drives with increase in output voltage by eliminating transformer and filter circuit. The performance is checked with standared parameter of the inverter.
