 When utilized at low amplitude modulation indices, existing multilevel carrier-based PWM strategies have no special provisions for this operating region, and several levels of the inverter go unused. This paper proposes some novel multilevel PWM strategies to take advantage of the multiple levels in both a diode-clamped inverter and a cascaded Hbridges inverter by utilizing all of the levels ...

Multi-level inverter technology has emerged recently as a very important alternative in the area of high-power medium-voltage energy control. In this paper, the most important topologies like diode-clamped inverter (neutral-point clamped), capacitor-clamped (flying capacitor), and cascaded multi cell with separate dc sources. In this paper, we proposed a new multi-level inverter topology based ...

Multi level inverters are becoming very attractive for industries due to their high power rating, high voltage rating and high efficiency is achieved without transformer. These also improves the overall performance of the system as these produces fewer harmonics. As the number of levels increases the quality of voltage waveform is also increases. In this paper the analysis of Three Phase Diode ...

Multilevel inverters have become more popular over the years in high power electric applications without use of a transformer and with promise of less disturbance and reduced harmonic distortion. This work proposes three phase five level Diode Clamped Multilevel Inverter (DCMLI) to simulate various modulating techniques for induction motor load. These Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques inc...

Due to their ability to synthesize waveforms with better harmonic spectrum and attain higher voltages, multi-level inverters are receiving increasing attention in the past few years. The multilevel inverter was introduced as a solution to increase the converter operating voltage above the voltage limits of classical semiconductors. In this paper, a Diode Clamped Multilevel Inverter is controlle...
