Multilevel Inverter (MLI) has attracted a great attention by different researchers and industries due to its capability in handling high power application and minimizing the harmonics contents in the output. This study propose three different topologies of MLI (5-level) which are Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverter (CHMLI) ,Diode Clamped Multilevel Inverter and Flying Capacitor Multilevel Inverter (FCMLI) .These three topologies have been modelled in MATLAB/SIMULINK and compared in terms of THD and number of components used. Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation is utilized to control both of the topologies with same DC source. The results showed that ,CHMLI is superior compared to DCMLI and FCMLI in which the CHMLI produce 26.29% THD while DCMLI and FCMLI produce 29.14% and 33.53% respectively .Moreover less components and switching losses is obtained when using the CHMLI.

A novel four-phase active boost switched reluctance inverter (SRI) having capability of improving performance of high speed SRM drive is presented. The proposed SRI provides fast fluxing as well as rapid de-fluxing with only two additional small voltage rating boost capacitors as compared to conventional SRI. Two boost capacitors were connected in such a way that each boost capacitor handles two alternate phases. This is an alternate solution to the problem caused by the overlap phase current which prevents the boost capacitor voltage to buildup. In proposed SRI, either of a boost capacitor and dc-link source forms the series connection during fluxing and de-fluxing period. Thus, the higher voltage for fluxing of SRM and negative higher voltage for de-fluxing of SRM are obtained. The operating mode analysis of proposed SRI are given in detail. The simulation for the conventional and proposed SRI has been performed and compared. And results justify the superior performance of proposed SRI.
