In this study, a fault diagnostic system in a multi-level inverter using a MLP network is developed. Using a mathematical model, it is difficult to diagnose a Multilevel-Inverter Drive (MLID) system, because MLID system complexity has a non-linear factor and it consist of many switching devices. Therefore neural network classification is applied to fault diagnosis of MLID system. Multilayer per...

This paper proposes three phase Seven Level Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter by using PD, POD, APOD, INVERTED SINEWAVE methods based on Sinusoidal PWM control techniques. There are 3 types of multilevel inverters named as diode clamped multilevel inverter, flying capacitor multilevel inverter and cascaded multilevel inverter. Compared to diode clamped & flying capacitor type multilevel inv...

A Comparison of 5-level hybrid cascaded inverter with PWM method, 5 level diode clamped inverter & 5 level capacitor coupled inverter is also presented in this paper. This pap...

Multilevel voltage source inverter offer several advantages compared to their conventional counterparts. Cascaded H-bridge inverter provides Stepped AC voltage wave form with lesser harmonics at higher levels by combining different ranges of voltage DC sources and the filter components are reduced by increasing Step levels. By increasing the level of the inverter we can get several advantages: ...
