Industries driven by electric power require controlled and improved quality for the optimal exploitation of resources. However, certain crucial issues greatly influence quality, causing monetary losses to both utility customers. Numerous custom devices are available compensate issues; however, these alter parameters transmission distribution systems. Hence, a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is a...

This Paper introduces new hybrid converter topologies which can supply simultaneously AC as well as DC from a single DC source. The new Hybrid Converter is derived from the single switch controlled Boost converter by replacing the controlled switch with voltage source inverter (VSI). This new hybrid converter has the advantages like reduced number of switches as compared with conventional desig...

A generalized formulation of Selective Harmonic Elimination (SHE) PWM for Multilevel Inverter is recently formulated in literature which can eliminate a large number of lower order harmonics. Various methods for calculating the firing angles for SHE PWM are known and still research in this area is ongoing. This paper presents a MATLAB based approach for modeling and simulation method suitable f...

Multilevel cascaded and hybrid inverter systems conventionally use three level bipolar PWM for each individual inverter, with their carriers phase shifted to achieve maximum harmonic cancellation within each phase leg. This has been shown to give a harmonic performance equivalent to APOD modulation of a NPC multilevel inverter, when the switching frequencies are scaled to achieve the same numbe...

Linear AC power supplies can be replaced by their nonlinear switching counterparts due to the lower voltage drops and higher efficiency and power density of switching-mode inverters. Multilevel cascaded H-bridge (CHB) converters are the preferred inverter structure because of modular configuration, control, and protection. The output voltage quality in CHB converters depends on the number of ou...

A soft-switched inverter is derived from the passively clamped quasi-resonant link circuit with three different clamps: coupled inductor, diode clamp and coupled inductor and capacitor. The proposed soft-switching inverter is formed from the traditional pulse-width modulated (PWM) inverter by simply augmenting with auxiliary resonant circuits, and the soft switching is achieved through applying...

The role of multilevel inverters in improving power quality has been already proved long back ago. The major concern in using multi level inverters is the number of switches used in it. As the level of inverter increases. So there is a need to reduce the component count in multilevel inverter. In this paper we use a statcom which is consists of a multilevel inverter with reduced switch count. T...
