Abstract

This document introduces a new structure of power switches for Developed H-bridge with half bridge connected in cascade to provide increased of a nine-stepped output voltage inverter. The proposed model requires lesser number of switches and dc power sources, which results in decreasing the complexity of total cost of inverter. The multi-carrier pulse width modulation (LS-PD-PWM) method is designed to reduce the percentage of (THD) Total harmonic distortion. The output voltage THD is calculated using FFT analysis tool and is found to be 13.97%. The results taken by simulation are validated using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.
