چکیده
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: get a good voltage wave form, Very low THD, reduced volume and cost. The need of several sources on the DC side of the converter makes multilevel technology attractive for photovoltaic applications. This paper provides an overview of a multilevel inverter topology and investigates their suitability for single-phase photovoltaic systems. A simulation model is based on MATLAB/SIMULINK is developed. An experimental 40W prototype inverter was built and tested. The results is experimentally validate for the proposed SPWM based three H-bridge 27 level cascaded multilevel inverter.

Integration of the PV into the electrical grid needs power electronic interface. This power electronic interface should have some key features and should come up with grid codes. One of the important criteria is the quality and harmonic contents of the current being injected to the grid. High-order harmonics of the grid current should be very limited (lower than 0.3% of the fundamental current)...
