Transformerless grid-connected inverters have attained a lot of research interest in renewable energy interface applications, due to certain promising properties like greater efficiency, light weight, affordable price, and tolerable power density. Among various types of transformerless grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) inverters, multilevel inverters (MLIs) are mostly popular due to their ability to transmit reactive power, small filter size for reducing total harmonic distortion (THD) and their commo...

Due to the rapid advancement of power semiconductor devices, the use of voltage source inverters (VSIs) has gained widespread acceptance. As a consequence, the performance of the voltage source inverter has emerged as a critical aspect that is highly reliant on the modulation strategy. The pulse width modulation (PWM) technique is the most widely utilized method of controlling power semiconductor switches of VSI. Power quality is always considered as an industrial concern for VSI-based power sys...
