Abstract
The multilevel inverter is the most advanced power conversion system, whose main advantage is to improve power quality and efficiency. Cascaded H‐bridge (CHB) multilevel inverter is a kind of inverter that can be selected in the field of motor drive systems, electric vehicles and photovoltaic grid‐connected power generations. However, the CHB multilevel inverters require a great deal of independent direct current (dc) power supplies, which makes the realization of these inverters very complicated in practical applications. In this article, model predictive control for CHB inverter with flying capacitors is proposed to improve the above drawbacks. Simulation and experimental results show that voltage balance of the flying capacitor can be maintained and simultaneously the output voltage of the inverter normally. © 2021 Institute of Electrical Engineers of Japan.
