Design and simulation of an asymmetrical 23-level inverter with modulation Techniques

For medium voltage, high power regulation the Multilevel Inverters (MLI) are attracting industry and academic researchers. MLI generates the desired output in the form of stepped waveforms with reduced harmonics. The MLI is expected to be realised using a variety of traditional topologies. Traditional MLIs have the disadvantage of requiring additional components, which increases the complexity of gate pulse production. As a result, MLI's overall costs will rise. This research proposes a hybrid topology to alleviate these drawbacks. With the increase in the number of steps in output voltage, the number of dc sources, power switching devices, converter cost, and space required is significantly reduced compared to typical MLIs. The design and simulation of a hybrid converter using several types of PWM approaches are covered in this work. This hybrid converter combines a T-Type structure and a half bridge inverter that is back-to-back connected. The proposed construction is designed and simulated by MATLAB Simulink software. The proposed 23 level inverter circuit is designed and simulated by Equal phase angle modulation technique and half height modulation technique, THD is compared.
