Design and implementation of 15-level cascaded multi-level voltage source inverter with harmonics elimination pulse-width modulation using differential evolution method

This study describes the application of a soft computing method - known as differential evolution (DE) to implement the harmonics elimination pulse-width modulation (HEPWM) for a 15-level, multi-level voltage source inverter (MVSI). The main feature of this technique is the wide range of fundamental...
