Abstract: Hybrid frequency control strategies are used to eliminate the problem of current inversion in multilevel cascaded asymmetrical H-bridge inverters. Unfortunately, this technique results in unbalanced power at the inverter output. The improved hybrid PWM modulation strategy helps to regulate power balances within a reasonable range at high and low voltages, by adjusting the conduction angle of the cells in high frequencies. However, as the conduction angle of a high-voltage cell increases, the fundamental amplitude of the inverter output voltage decreases, since waveforms with absolute values greater than 2 E cannot be perfectly modulated. Based on mathematical models of the conduction time for each level synthesis method, a new modulation strategy is proposed to solve the problems associated with the two strategies mentioned above. This new high-frequency modulation strategy adopts a combination of pulse-width modulation (PWM) and step modulation to combine control of the high-voltage and low-voltage units. At given intervals, the control voltage signals of the low-voltage unit are exchanged. Finally, the power of each unit is balanced and the basic amplitude of the inverter output voltage is not affected. Finally, the MATLAB/Simulink simulation model and experimental platform verify the feasibility of this strategy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
