This study presents a 5-level single phase cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter where in two H-bridges are in series and there are separate DC voltage source for each H-bridge. The modulation technique we have used is sinusoidal pulse width modulation because it helps in reducing the unwanted harmonics. A single phase cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter model is presented in this study and performance of this inverter is investigated through various simulation studies using MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation result shows the effective control to obtain minimum THD performance. Potential drawbacks of conventional inverters are eliminated here.
