Abstract
|
A new 11-level inverter using a coupled inductor and a transformer is proposed. The proposed inverter increases maximum output voltage and decreases current stress on switches. A comprehensive comparison is conducted among the proposed inverter and some of the recent presented inverters in terms of number of components, maximum output voltage, and voltage and current stresses on the switches. Moreover, the design calculations of a single-phase inverter in addition to the transformer and coupled inductor design are given. In order to verify the performance of the proposed topologies, the experimental results are presented.
