Abstract :
This paper presents a unique control scheme for achieving power balancing in recently proposed multilevel inverter topologies. Moreover, this strategy can be extended to any type of topology and to any number of output levels of multilevel inverter (MLI).Comparisons have been made between the power delivered by sources in two different topologies with and without applying the proposed control schemes. Voltage stress across different switches of both the topologies have been presented during power balancing operation.
