The control signals for this multilevel inverter is obtained by using carrier based PWM technique. The proposed multilevel inverter is used to obtain a pure sinusoidal waveform which is verified using MATLAB/SIMULINK software. The results of the simulation, the output waveform of three phase voltage and phase current obtained are pure sinusoidal therefore the proposed topology can be implemented for HVDC transmission and induction motor drives using the dc source obtained from solar panels which is converted to ac using proposed topology. The proposed topology is concentrated to increase the voltage levels of the output using a single dc source. The new NPC flying capacitor H-Bridge inverter is invented in this paper and its advantages are discussed in this paper by doing so a pure sine wave is obtained. KEYWORDS: New NPC flying capacitor H-bridge inverter, multilevel inverter, HVDC, two level flying capacitor inverter, sinusoidal waveform, Solar panels. I..INTRODUCTI ON A multilevel inverter is a power electronic converter built to synthesize a desired AC voltage from several levels of dc voltages in which the DC levels a r e obtained from b a t t e r i e s , solar cells, capacitors, etc. In this paper, the proposed topology uses a new two NPC H-bridge inverter in series with each leg of two level inverter and suitable PWM technique is used to obtain a pure sinusoidal waveform which is not in the form of multilevel which is the actual meaning of multilevel inverter. The prototype is tested with resistive inductive load one with NPC and other without NPC. This analysis is carried out without using any low pass or high pass filter. Several topologies and Several PWM techniques were carried out which were complicating the entire control and power circuit. The proposed topology implements a simple carrier based PWM technique implemented with a new two NPC H-bridge inverter and increased voltage levels. To obtain a quality output voltage or a current waveform with a minimum amount of ripple content, they require various pulse width modulation (PWM) strategies, which increase the switching frequency of the power devices. In the case of multi level inverters, as the number of voltage levels increases the harmonic content of the output voltage waveform decreases, even without using any pulse width modulation technique. As the switching frequency is reduced the power losses are also minimized, and thereby increasing the efficiency of the system. The paper is focused to obtain a pure sinusoidal waveform using a single dc voltage source without using any filters. The proposed topology implements the development of sinusoidal A C voltage can be obtained us i ng a single DC voltage source at desired output voltage and frequency by using a power electronics device that is called an inverter. Industrial applications of inverters are for adjustable-speed AC drives, UPS (uninterruptible power supply), HVDC transmission lines. DC power inputs that inverters can use the solar panels as a dc supply and show that the proposed topology can be used for industries. II. SIMULATION ANALYSIS The power circuit diagram of a three phase full bridge inverter is shown in Fig (1). The dc supply is obtained f r o m a b a t t e r y o r f r o m s o l a r p a n e l s . The p o w e r circuit is obtained by using 30 switches, SEVEN switches for each of the three phases which forms the circuit. Each step is defined as a change in the time operation for each IGBT to the next IGBT in proper sequence. For one cycle 360 degree, each step would be of 60 degree interval for a six step inverter. Fig (1) shows the power circuit diagram of a three phase bridge inverter using seven IGBTs in each phase. Capacitors are connected as shown in figure serving as DC voltage source. Several topologies and several PWM techniques are going on research for multilevel inverters to obtain a pure sinusoidal waveform.

COMPARISON WITH OTHER TOPOLOGIES As per [7] it requires a more number of filters and more number of chargeable capacitor for capacitor voltage balancing. But the proposed topology reduces the amount of flying capacitors used it uses a new NPC H-bridge inverter which reduces the amount of filters used and also increases the voltage levels. Since the proposed topology uses two neutral points clamped H-bridge inverter which makes it not to use any filters. The waveform shown in figure (5) is pure sinusoidal without using any filter. The waveform shown in figure (7) is a stepped waveform but the proposed topology waveform is sinusoidal the reason is because of using new NPC H-bridge inverter. As per [1] to obtain a pure sinusoidal wave form using SVPWM it should be operated in over modulation region so by doing so the sinusoidal waveform is not obtained expect the magnitude is increased but in the proposed topology both the current and voltage waveforms are pure sinusoidal. As per [9] it uses a second order low pass filter which is not power electronic equipment which requires two dual power supplies. 12 S34 11 S33 10 S32 9 S31 8 S24 7 S23 6 S22 5 S21 4 S14 3 S13 2 S12 1 S11 > > > > > > NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT 3 In3 2 In2 1 In1 12 S304 11 S303 10 S302 9 S301 8 S204 7 S203 6 S202 5 S201 4 S104 3 S103 2 S102 1 S101 > > > > > > NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT 3 In3 2 In2 1 In1 S11 S12 S13 S14 S21 S22 S23 S24 S31 S33 S34 S101 S102 S103 S104 S201 S202 S203 S204 S301 S302 S303 S304 1a 1f 2a 2f 3a 3f 300v 15f 150v 15f 150v 1ohm 1ohm 15f 70v 15f 70v 15f 70v 15f 35v 15f 35v 15f 35v 100 ohm 1e-10 henry S32 Discrete, Ts = 5e-005 s powergui Vabc Iabc A B C a b c ABC ABC In1 In2 In3 S11 S12 S13 S14 S21 S22 S23 S24 S31 S32 S33 S34 In1 In2 In3 S11 S12 S13 S14 S21 S22 S23 S24 S31 S32 S33 S34 1a 2a 3a 1f 2f 3f g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E g m C E -T- [l 3a] -T- -T- -T- [l 2a] -T- -T- [l 24] [l 14] [l 33] [l 23] [l 13] [l 32] [l 22] [l 12] [l 31] -T- [l 21] [l 11] [l 3f] -T- [l 2f] -T- [l 1f] -T- -T- -T- [l 34] [l 1a] -T- [l 3a] [l 2f] -T- -T- [l 2a] [l 1f] -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- [l 3f] -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- -T- [l 1a] i + - Figure (5) The three pha IV.
