Simulation and FPGA based Implementation of PI and Fuzzy Controllers for Cascaded Asymmetric Multilevel Inverter

The main objective of this work is to improve the performance of Multilevel Inverter by using the novel LS-PD- PWM and controlling technique instead of the existing approach. The proposed work focus on closed loop controller such as existing PI and Fuzzy Logic Controller for resistive load with Multilevel Inverter. The proposed Asymmetric fifteen level Inverter offers less THD and high frequency than the Asymmetric nine level inverter. Asymmetric multilevel inverter is used to reduce the switching losses and THD. In this work is the generation and implementation of Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) techniques using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) for Multilevel Inverter. PWM can be generated via Microprocessors, Microcontroller, FPGA and DSP Processors. Higher density Programmable Logic Devices (PLD) such as FPGAs can be used to amalgamate large amounts of logic into a single Integrated. Pulse width modulation (PWM) is generally used in power converter control. To generate LS-PD- PWM by using FPGA, this occupies less memory capacity and accurate than conventional one. An efficient PWM generation technique is performed using FPGA for lower frequency applications. Simulation and synthesis is done by ModelSim6.3c and Xilinx10.1. Further, the Implementation is carried out by FPGA Spartan3 Xc3s50. Key Word: PWM, FPGA, PLD (Programmable Logic Devices), LS-PD-PWM
