Design of multilevel inverter using Nearest Level Control Technique with reduced power switches

This paper discusses a new 11 level multi inverter topology introduced by the Nearest Level Control method. By this topology we are reducing the switches for the reduction of switching losses and harmonic distortions. The reduction of power switches in the topology leads to the reduction of size and cost of the system. The new topology is compared to the different techniques present and this model is controlled by Pulse Width Modulation. The performance of this 11 level multi inverter topology is higher in the power applications where it is simulated in the MATLAB. The results are verified and compared to the various techniques.
