This paper used an artificial jellyfish search (AJFS) optimizer suitable for selective harmonic elimination-based modulation multilevel inverter (MLI) voltage control application. The main objective was to remove the undesired lower-order harmonics in output waveform of MLI. algorithm motivated by behavior ocean. Jellyfish have ability find global best position where a large quantity nutritious...

The paper presents the DQ axis with Fourier analysis (DQF) algorithm to identify harmonic quantities for hybrid power filters. This algorithm is a combination of the advantages of DQ axis method and sliding window Fourier analysis (SWFA). This paper also presents the harmonic elimination by using the DQF algorithm for both three-phase balanced and unbalanced systems. The results show that the u...

This study demonstrates the selective harmonic by using a hybrid Genetic algorithm GA and local search (GA-LS) of uniform asymmetric multilevel inverter called USAMI That removes higher-order harmoni...

In this paper we propose a suitable reference wave for Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) AC Drives. Staircase reference waves whose levels are calculated to eliminate certain harmonics are studied and a certain staircase reference waveform with L levels is constructed. When L is made very large in limit, this staircase waveform approaches a continuous one which is called Quasine (Quasi + Sine). This...

Multilevel Inverters (MLIs) have drawn increasing attention in numerous applications, especially in drives, distributed energy resources area, utility etc. MLIs have the ability to synthesize a near sinusoidal output voltage wave with minimal Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) in low frequency switching. Even though they offer lower THD, the presence of lower order harmonics is objectionable and h...
