Description

In this study, elimination of harmonics in a five-level diode-damped multilevel inverter (DCMLI) has been implemented by using fundamental modulation switching. The proposed method eliminates harmonics by generating negative harmonics with switching angles calculated for selective harmonic elimination method. In order to confirm the proposed method, first Matlab/Simulink and PSIM simulation results are given. Then the proposed method is also validated by experiments with Opal-RT controller and a 10 kW three-phase, five-level DCMLI prototype.
