Introduction to Quasi Multilevel Inverter Systems

Understand high-performance inverters with this groundbreaking guide Multilevel inverters (MLIs) improve on the standard two-level converter by decreasing DV/DT ratios and increasing output levels. The recent development of Quasi-Multilevel Inverters (QMLIs) has taken this improved performance even further, providing engineers with a range of inverter options for varying needs. Introduction to Quasi Multilevel Inverter Systems introduces these novel systems, their applications, and the process of choosing between the merits of different inverters. Suited to both experienced researchers and advanced students, this groundbreaking work introduces an emerging subject for which few existing resources can otherwise be found. It promises to revolutionize energy conversion in all its many applications. Introduction to Quasi Multilevel Inverter Systems readers will also find: Methods for deriving and developing effective QMLI topologies for specific applications.Detailed discussion of topics including switched capacitor inverters, low switch count inverters, and more.Supporting materials include simulation models, DSP codes, and end-of-chapter exercises to reinforce and facilitate learning.Introduction to Quasi Multilevel Inverter Systems is ideal for engineers, industry professionals, researchers, and advanced undergraduate or graduate students working on inverters, power electronics, energy conversion, and related subjects.
