In order to study harmonics, wave shapes understanding is f(t) = Sinωt + Sin3ωt + Sin5ωt + Sin7ωt (13)
priceless. And this can be done by employing Fourier series
which is the tool for analysing wave shapes. From the series, 3rd, 5th and 7th harmonics decreases with a
Fourier Series of A Square wave Inverter factor of , the nearest harmonics having biggest
If f(x) is defined on the interval –π x π and f(x) magnitudes, that is, one-third the magnitude of the
= f(x + π), that is, the waveform is periodic,[6]. fundamental, has its frequency equal to 150Hz, [9].
Fundamental frequency is 50Hz as we have in Nigeria. The
f(x) = a0 + (2) measure of distortion brought about by harmonics is
computed as Total Harmonic Distortion THD thus
also f(t) = a0 + (3)
it means that
f (t) = a0 + a1Cosωt + a2Cos2ωt+ a3Cos3ωt +... + b1Sinωt+
b2Sin2ωt+ b3Sin3ωt+... (4)
