Abstract
This study proposes a cascaded power conversion structure composed of a three-level DC-DC boost converter and a single-phase five-level T-type inverter to address the high performance and power quality demands of renewable energy systems. The integrated topology is designed to overcome the limitations of conventional two-level architectures by combining high voltage gain with reduced voltage stress on power switches and minimized total harmonic distortion (THD). The paper presents a comprehensive mathematical model and a robust control strategy, utilizing decoupled loops for total DC-link voltage regulation and neutral-point balancing, alongside a synchronous reference frame current controller for the inverter stage. Simulation studies conducted in the MATLAB/Simulink environment validate the operational characteristics of the proposed system. The results demonstrate that the boost stage maintains a stable symmetric DC-link voltage of 350Vdc (∓175Vdc). Furthermore, the T-type inverter generates a five-level output waveform with a THD as low as 1.22% under steady-state conditions and 1.01% under dynamic loading, compliant with IEEE 519 standards. This confirms the system capability to reduce voltage stress on switches by 50% while ensuring high-quality power delivery.
This paper presents a self-balanced five-level active neutral-point-clamped inverter with unity voltage gain. The proposed topology consists of seven active switches, six diodes, a low-voltage switched capacitor, and two dc-link capacitors to generate a five-level output voltage without requiring an additional voltage-...

Multilevel inverters (MLIs) are widely used in energy-conversion systems because they generate high-quality AC voltages with reduced harmonic distortion. However, existing MLIs often require numerous power devices, multiple DC sources, voltage sensors, or dedicated capacitor-balancing controllers, which increases both...

Conventional switched capacitor boost-multilevel inverters have been widely adopted in solar energy systems and electric vehicles, but their performance is constrained by limited voltage gain, increased switch count, and capacitor voltage imbalance. To mitigate these drawbacks, this paper proposes three phase a single...
