Abstract :
Recently, multilevel converters have attracted attention in medium-voltage and highpower applications due to reduced voltage stress on power semiconductor switches, reduced voltage harmonics, and electromagnetic interferences. For higher voltage and high-power applications, the switching frequency and device ratings are limited.
