| Summary: | For many years, multilevel inverter (MLI) is a system well-known for converting DC voltage to AC voltage
which is suitable for energy resources conversion for industrial power sources. With the help of Selective Harmonic
Elimination Pulse Width Modulation (SHEPWM) switching technique, the output power from the MLI system is better
efficiency with low Total Harmonics Distortion (THD). The SHEPWM switching technique is used to eliminate the lower
order of the harmonics and reduces the Total Harmonics Distortion (THD) of the MLI system. Along with the optimization
algorithms to solve difficult non-linear equations involving with SHEPWM, applying SHEPWM into MLI system helps to
further improve the output power efficiency. Whale Optimization Algorithm (WOA) is one of the algorithms developed
which capable of solving the non-linear equation and obtained suitable results for MLI. Additionally, many types of
improvement done on WOA, called as Improved Whale Optimization Algorithms (IWOA) also developed to obtain better
results compared with WOA. Developed in a MATLAB environment, a proposed IWOA is applied to solve the equation
and compared with WOA. The results show that the proposed IWOA capable of achieving higher probability with fast
convergence speed reaching global optimal compared to WOA. With the proposed approach, the IWOA efficiently
computed required switching angles, to eliminate the selective lower-order harmonics for different modulation indices
(Ma). In this paper, the proposed IWOA is performed on a three-phase nine-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter
(CHBMLI) for a wide range of modulation indexes between 0.1 until 1. The results show the eliminations of 5
th, 7th, and
11th harmonics from the output of the three-phase nine-level MLI system thus reducing THD from the system up to 5.82%. |
