Harmonic elimination of a fifteen‐level inverter with reduced number of switches using genetic algorithm

open access: yesIET Power Electronics, EarlyView., 2023
This article presents a Fifteen‐level inverter topology that has a lesser number of switches (12) and can accommodate isolated DC sources. The total harmonic elimination (THD) of the proposed topology using genetic algorithm is within the IEEE 519 standards. Further, the fifteen‐level inverter is implemented in Hardware and firing pulses were generated
