Fuzzy- and MPC-Controlled Symmetrical Cascaded Multicell Inverter: A Comparison

TLDR
In this paper, a brief analysis of seven-level and nine-level symmetrical cascaded multicell inverter is presented with THD analysis, which is designed to regulate the RMS output voltage of the circuit.
Abstract
The main advantage of symmetrical cascaded multicell inverter is that it uses less number of switching devices as compared to stacked multicell converter. In this chapter, a brief analysis of seven-level and nine-level symmetrical cascaded multicell inverter is presented with THD analysis. Closed-loop operation of the symmetrical cascaded multicell inverter is designed to regulate the RMS output voltage of the circuit. Two different control techniques were implemented, namely fuzzy logic controller and model predictive controller (MPC), the control performance of these two controllers was compared, and the detailed analysis is presented.
