Item A Dual Boost Multilevel Inverter Circuit for Renewable Energy Applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Bharadwaj, L.; Yellasiri, Y.; Shiva Naik, B.S.; Nageswar Rao, B.N.; Aditya, K.; Reddy, D.V.To minimise the dependence on fossil-fuels, researchers focused on integrating renewable energy with different power electronic inverters. In that process multilevel inverters (MLIs) have gained more attention due to its impeccable advantages. In this work, a novel topology with boost ability, and reduced number of components is proposed. Capacitors used in the proposed structure possess self-balancing ability and the works competently under any loading condition. It is worthy to mention that the blocking voltage of proposed circuit is with in the limits of source voltage even with the dual boost. Sinusoidal pulse width modulation switching strategy technique is employed to get gating signals. Simulation using MATLAB is carried-out to assess the performance of proposed inverter. Further, the proposed circuit is compared with switched-capacitor (SC) based MLIs in terms of number of switches, and standing voltage to highlight the potential merits. © 2020 IEEE.Item A Novel Switched-Capacitor Boost Multilevel Inverter for PV Applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2020) Reddy, D.V.; Yellasiri, Y.; Shiva Naik, B.S.; Nageswar Rao, B.N.; Aditya, K.; Bharadwaj, L.Nowadays, voltage boosting capability with less part count has become the key feature of recently developed MLI topologies.

Capacitors are used as virtual sources to boost the voltage magnitude and increase the levels. Additionally, the proposed MLI circuit inherits benefits such as self-balancing capacitors, less blocking voltage, and fewer components. A simple PD-PWM scheme is used to generate gating signals. Circuit portrayal, operating principle, modulation, and capacitor voltage ripples are studied. MATLAB software is used to carry out simulations, and the obtained outcomes prove the boosting ability under different loading circumstances. A detailed comparative review is conducted with other recent SCMLIs to illustrate the superiorities of the proposed circuit. © 2022 IEEE.
