“…Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) is one of the types of DC/AC Converters that is commonly used in the industrial applications and has been studied extensively. This particular converter is divided into three which are the Half-Bridge, Full Bridge and Multilevel Inverter [24]. There are five types of Multilevel Inverter (MVSI) consisting of the Neutral-Point Clamped Inverter, Flying Capacitor Inverter, Cascaded H-Bridge Inverter, and two other inverters that have not been studied extensively like the other three inverters namely the Hexagram Inverter and Hybrid Inverter.…”

This paper presents the analysis study between multilevel inverters that are often classified into multilevel voltage source and multilevel current source inverters. For multilevel voltage source inverter (MVSI), the specific topology studied for this work is the Cascaded H-Bridge MVSI. Whereas, the multilevel current source inverter (MCSI) is based on Paralleled Inductor Configuration MCSI. For this study, the analysis between these converters are done with respect to the number of components, the advantages and disadvantages of each converters during performing inverter operation. In term of output voltage and current quality, the percentage of the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) are measured and compared for both topologies. MATLAB/Simulink software has been used in this research to design and simulate in order to study the performances of both inverters.

“…Compared to flyings capacitor or diodesclamped MLI topologies, the cascaded H bridge MLI are simpler due to some advantages which it possess like switching redundancy, automatic voltage distribution, smaller dv/dt stress, absence of high-rated capacitors and diodes as well as the need for minimum number of components [7]. The main focus of this manuscript is to investigate the single phase CHB performances of MLI which an input sources started from level 5 to 9 are a photovoltaic cell.…”

<span>Multi-level inverters (MLIs), have gained popularity in the last few years as a result of their low total harmonic distortions (THD) as well as their output waveform which is of high quality. The converter which considers more appropriate for applications of photovoltaic (PV)beyond the varying MLIs arrangementsis the Cascaded H-Bridge-(CHB) (MLI), meanwhile each PV panel may be served as an independent DC supply for any CHB unit<span style="text-decoration: underline;">.</span> Through the use of MATLAB/Simulink, the efficiency of symmetrical single phase MLI in terms of the number of switches, harmonic content in addition to the stresses of voltage through theswitches that exist at photovoltaic cell by means of input source is enhanced; varying parameters like output current, voltage and power, and THD at 5-level 7-level and 9-level Cascaded MLI are observed. In this paper, attention is paid to a multi-level topologies which is flexible and based on cascaded MLI intended for PV grids connected system. An observation of the output voltage becomes closer to the sine wave as the levels increase, while the increase in the levels of Cascaded Multilevel Inverter causes the total harmonic distortion to decrease.</span>

“…Conventional inverters are not capable of high power medium voltage application to reducing harmonics contents, it has less efficiency, more switching losses and in long term, constraints have less lifespan. This lead to introduce the growth in multilevel inverter has functioning high-frequency application under the lower loss of switching with high frequency [1].…”

The paper introduces the cascaded H-Bridge multi-level inverter with single-phase arrangement connected series with full-bridge inverter and CHBMLI configuration integrated with Double level circuit is proposed to reduce the harmonic distortion to get high power quality. In the proposed configuration, a half-bridge inverter has been implemented to increase the output voltage waveform nearly twice as compared with the conventional Cascaded H-Bridge MLI. For high Power quality, the output voltage waveform with the reference of sinusoidal, the phase opposition disposition carrier arrangement has been utilized in PWM for producing gate pulse of switches. The high waveform of output voltage achieved with the less no of switches, less % THD distortion, less conduction and switching losses. The purposed symmetrical model of CHBMLI is successfully verified using MATLAB based on simulation with DLC configuration.
