Abstract


This article presents the five levels H-Bridge cascaded multilevel inverter with photovoltaic MPPT control. The power source is composed of photovoltaic panels used as DC inputs for the cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter. The present work aims to present a control strategy to produce the best output quality possible. The algorithm P&O extract from the panels the maximum power while the supervision system tends to control the DC levels in the CHMLI inputs. Each panel possesses its own MPPT module and the cascaded H-Bridge Multi-Level Inverter uses the modules as entries to produce a staircase waveform output. A simulation using matlab/simulink is realized to verify the system performance.
