Generalized Structure of a Multilevel PWM Inverter
Abstract
A generalized structure of a multilevel voltage source thyristor inverter is proposed. The multilevel concept is used to decrease the harmonic distortion in the output waveform without decreasing the inverter power output. A simple uniform PWM control of the output voltage is seen to be sufficient to practically remove all remaining harmonics. Harmonic analysis of n-step waveform is given, and the experimental results obtained on a three-step inverter are presented.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
