Dr. B. K. Karunakar Rao, G. Mounika, Dr. Joshua Arumbakan

Abstract


This paper presents cascaded H- bridge multilevel inverter using multicarrier technique. the cascaded multilevel inverters are suitable for various high voltages, high power applications, the transformer less multilevel inverter is very advantageous. These simulation results are carried out for different modulation index and the result proves that THD (Total harmonic distortion) is reduced with increase in modulation index. The output that is obtained from multilevel inverter has less power loss with low total harmonic distortion

Keywords


Cascaded Multilevel Inverter, Multicarrier Technique Introduction, Total Harmonic Distortion.
