A New Reduced Switch Multilevel Inverter Based D-STATCOM for Power Quality Improvement
نویسنده
چکیده
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. The comparison of the proposed multilevel inverter with less components is done with the conventional multilevel inverters. The proposed statcom is simulated in Matlab/simulink and is performance is tested under balanced and unbalanced nonlinear loads. The results show that statcom with proposed multilevel inverter has proposed multilevel inverter has successfully improved the power quality.
