Hybrid topology of asymmetric cascaded multilevel inverter with renewable energy sources

This paper presents a binary topology of Multi-module level inverters produce a staircase output voltage from renewable DC voltage sources. The MLI (Multi Level Inverter) Requires many number of semiconductor switches is main drawback of multilevel inverters. The MLI can be classified as two method, one is symmetric and another asymmetric converters. In symmetrical multilevel inverter can apply same voltage level to all cascaded circuit, in asymmetric multilevel inverters can be vary input source voltage at each cascaded H-bridge by using binary algorithm. In this paper, a discrete binary topology for multilevel converters is proposed using cascaded sub-multilevel Cells. This sub-multilevel converter can produce sixty three levels of voltage from five discrete DC source. The Total Harmonic Distortions (THD) is minimized by discrete binary topology. The working operation and performance of the proposed multilevel inverters studies has been verified by simulation of using SIMULINK / MATLAB results.
