ABSTRACT
The increase of transmission frequency reveals
more merits than low or medium-frequency distribution among different kinds of power applications. It is complicated to obtain a high-frequency inverter with both simple circuit topology and straight forward modulation strategy. A switched-capacitor-based cascaded multilevel inverter is proposed in this paper, which is constructed by a switched-capacitor frontend and H-Bridge backend.

INTRODUCTION HIGH-FREQUENCY ALTERNATIONG CURRENT (HFAC) power distribution system (PDS) potentially becomes an alternative to traditional DC distribution due to the fewer components and lower cost. The existing applications can be found in computer, telecom, electric vehicle, and renewable energy micro-grid. Hence we propose A new modular 13 level converter topology based on switched capacitor to solve the purpose.

MULTILEVEL INVERTER The multi-level inverter is to synthesize a near sinusoidal voltage from several levels of dc voltages The Multi level inverter is like an inverter and it is used for industrial applications as alternative in high power and medium voltage situations. It has been introduced in 1975 as alternative in high power and medium voltage situations by NABLE ELAL Multilevel Inverters are three types: Neutral point clamped (NPC) Flying capacitor (FC) And Cascaded H-bridge (CHB)

provides the multiple voltage levels through the different phases to the capacitor banks which are in series. A diode transfers a limited amount of voltage, thereby reducing the stress on other electrical devices. The maximum output voltage is half of the input DC voltage.

is to use capacitors. It is of series connection of capacitor clamped switching cells. In this inverter switching states are like in the diode clamped inverter. Clamping diodes are not required in this type of multilevel inverters.

used to eliminate the bulky transformer required in case of conventional multi phase inverters, clamping diodes required in case of diode clamped inverters and flying capacitors required in case of flying capacitor inverters. But these require large number of isolated voltages to supply the each cell. The combination of capacitors and switches pair is called an H-bridge and gives the separate input DC voltage for each H-bridge. KAKINADA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY AND SCIENCE,DIVILI 9 BLOCK DIAGRAM

CONCLUSION
In this paper, a novel SC-based cascaded multilevel
inverter was proposed. Both 9-level and 13-level circuit topology are examined in depth. Compared with conventional cascaded multilevel inverter, the proposed inverter can greatly decrease the number of switching devices. A new modular multilevel converter topology based on switched capacitor , was presented with the low switching frequency and simple implementation. The accordant results of simulation further confirm the feasibility of proposed circuit and modulation method.

Future work related to this research is to perform complete realization of proposed multilevel inverter in closed loop control system. Investigation of proposed multilevel inverters to replace the conventional inverters used in the micro-grid applications.
