This scheme advance conventional Carrier-Based PWM (CBPWM) using triangle canier in different amplitudes. By this scheme ACMLI can conhol by PWM that according to dc voltage amplitude used and finally the Total Harmonics Distortions (THD) can reduce to the settle standard. Simulation using Matlab Simulink used to veriff the performance and result simulation shown than this proposedschemecan reachthe goals. the ACMLI, there is a problems, that is its have low power quality performance, so many method to adjust this controller find in many papers in the last decade. To solve this problem, this paper propose a new schem'e,which namely Advance Pulse Width Modulations (APWM). This schemeon behalf of PWM, but its not use triangle carrier waveform in equal amplitude as like to in the conventional PWM. The frequency and amplitude of triangle modulation must be accordingto amplitude of DC voltage on eachH-Bridges inverter . Key word- asymmetric cascaded multilevel inverter, multi carrier pulse width modulation, power quality, total harmonic distortion. CMLI proposed to solve all the problems of the multilevel inverters as well as conventional multi pulse (or PWIO inverters t5-71. CMLI eliminates the excessively large number of bulky transformers required by conventionalmulti pulse inverters,the clamping diodes required by multilevel diode clamped inverters, and the flying capacitors required by multilevel flying capacitor inverters. CMLI consists a series connection of multiple H' bridge inverters. Each H-bridge inverter has the same configuration as a tlpical single-phasefull-bridge inverter [3-41. CMLI introduces the idea of using separateDC sources to produce an AC voltage waveform. Each Hbridge inverter is connected to its own DC source. By cascadingthe output voltage of each H-bridge inverter, a stepped voltage waveform is produced [5-7]. If the number of H-bridges is N, the voltage output is obtained by summing the output voltage of bridges as shown in equation (l). Fig. I shows configuration of CMLI on single-phase. I. INTRODUCTION The multilevel inverter [MLI] is a promising inverter topology for high voltage and high power applications []. This inverter synthesizes several different levels of DC voltages to produce a staircase (stepped) that approaches the pure sine waveform [3-9]. Its have high power quality waveforms, lower voltage ratings of devices, lower harmonic distortion, lower switching frequency and losses,higher efficiency, reduction of dv/dt stressesand gives the possibility of working with low speed semiconductors if its comparison with the two-levels inverters. Numerous of MLI topologies and modulation techniqueshave been inhoduced and studied extensively, but most popular MLI topology is Diode Clamp, Flying Capacitor and CascadedMultilevel Inverter (CMLI). In this paper we use a CMLI that consist ot some H-Bridge inverters and with un-equal DC. Its also namely Asymmetric CascadedNultilevel Inverter (ACMLI). Its most implemented because this inverter more modular and simple construction and have other advantages than Diode clamp and flying capacitor [7]. There are many modulation techniques to conhol this inverter, such as Selected Harmonics Elimination or Optimized Harmonic Stepped-Waveform(OHSW), Space Vector PWM (SVPWM) and Carrier-Based PWM (CBPWM). Among thes modulation CBPWM is the most used for multilevel inverter, brcause it have simple logical and easy to implemented. But if CBPWM used in U. 10E60G5353IJECSIJENS @ Decembq 2010 UENS ACMLI v,.l ro glu0 ?snq nu\^e\zq\ gluOqouo\2silq\Vsp\s o1Eu0\\reeuu0 Co11e0c Dr WnplturrusqldPsl KPsu g lecpuolo0Ngsu0lsqezp gs\zpsprglutrewtt\o1Eu01ueer.1u0 pr'gleq Vpqnl U\logs Psu fs?p? gluYreeqN e'Hsplp Ksseur! gscegebeilulrier'zqhlnlYeh wnefs$t clul€u (etopst gsubne)' gsuolsqezp glulrrer,zqh glnud gee gscegebegluYrer'aqN 1nq<e\ ylpsu gsbnansodln gluyrer.zq\ 11sr.s'Y1s1s\z1s Msu HneesluMsu lepsr o1gu0tueeuu0suq lecpuolo0NgsuOlsqezp C\lrts0ou0gluyrer-zq\ pri yynpsr.uursq vpqnr gspursu gpn;rsu glunee$r 1ecpuo1oO\ Seltousz 111s1s\z1s Dr.'lLtsl^ttu El:tujAssrup!
