نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, a new topology of cascaded multilevel inverter using a reduced number of switches is proposed. The new topology has the advantage of reduced number devices compared to traditional configurations and can be extended to any number of levels. This topology results in reduction of installation area, cost, computational time and has simplicity of control system. This structure consists of series connected sub-multilevel inverter blocks. The GA technique finds the optimal solution set of switching angles, if it exits, for each required harmonic profile. Both simulation results and experimental verification of the proposed inverter topology for different number of levels and different harmonic profiles are presented.
