Abstract
In this paper, SHE based on Newton–Raphson algorithm is used for open-loop control of flying capacitor multilevel inverter. Without measuring current and capacitor voltages, as well as not using any controller and voltage feedback, proposed control strategy generates accurate switching angles, capable of balancing flying capacitor voltage and eliminates lower order harmonics while considering load power factor variation. Efficiency and robustness of proposed algorithm are verified by simulation and experiments. Results show that proposed method does effectively eliminate specific low-order harmonics, and inverter output voltage is resulted in low total harmonic distortion with desired number of levels and balanced capacitor voltages.
