1. Introduction
Multilevel inverters have drawn tremendous interest in high-power medium-voltage industry. In literature,
inverters with voltage levels three or more reIerred as multilevel inverters. The inherent multilevel structure
increase the power rating in which device voltage stresses are controlled without requiring higher ratings on
individual devices. They present a new set oI Ieatures that suits well Ior use in static reactive power
compensation, drives and active power Iilters. Multilevel voltage source inverter allows reaching high
voltages with low harmonics without use oI series connected synchronized switching devices or
transIormers. As the number oI voltage levels increases, the harmonic content oI output voltage waveIorm
decreases signiIicantly. The advantages oI multilevel inverter are good power quality, low switching losses,
reduced output dv/dt and high voltage capability. Increasing the number oI voltage levels in the inverter
increases the power rating. The three main topologies oI multilevel inverters are the Diode clamped
inverter, Flying capacitor inverter, and the Cascaded H-bridge inverter by Nabae et al. (1981).
The PWM schemes oI multilevel inverters are Multilevel Sine-Triangle Carrier Pulse Width Modulation-
SPWM and Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation-SVPWM. Multilevel SPWM involves comparison oI
reIerence signal with a number oI level shiIted carriers to generate the PWM signal. Due to its simplicity
and its well deIined harmonic spectrum which is concentrated at the carrier Irequency, its sidebands, and its
multiples with their sidebands, the SPWM method has been utilized in a wide range oI AC drive
applications. However, the method has a poor voltage linearity range, which is at most 78.5 oI the six-
step voltage Iundamental component value, hence poor voltage utilization. ThereIore, the zero sequence
signal injection techniques that extend the SPWM linearity range have been introduced Ior isolated neutral

load applications which comprise the large majority oI AC loads. The carrier based PWM methods can
operate with high switching Irequency and oIIer high waveIorm quality and implementation advantages.
Carrier based PWM methods employ the per carrier cycle volt-second balancing principle to program a
desirable inverter output voltage waveIorm. The programmed PWM technique, SVPWM involves
synthesizing the reIerence voltage space vector by switching among the nearest voltage space vectors.
SVPWM is considered a better technique oI PWM owing to its advantages (i) improved Iundamental
output voltage (ii) reduced harmonic distortion (iii) easier implementation in microcontrollers and Digital
Signal Processor. This paper considered the most popular structure among the transIormer-less voltage
source multilevel inverters, the diode-clamped converter based on the neutral point converter with
SVPWM technique by Carrara et al. (1992). This paper proposes a single carrier multi-modulation
technique Ior multilevel inverter driven induction machine, modeled in synchronously rotating reIerence
Irame. Simulation results present comparison oI single and multicarrier SVPWM oI nine-level diode-
clamped inverter. Improved Iundamental component oI voltage is observed with SCMM method. Reduced
total harmonic distortion and current ripple can be observed with Alternate Phase Opposition Disposition
Carrier (APODC) SVPWM technique by Leon et al. (1999). Simulation is carried out in MATLAB-
Simulink soItware.

lies (ii) Nearest three voltage space vectors (NTV) identiIication (ii) Determination oI the dwelling time oI
each oI these NTVs (iv) Choosing an optimized switching sequence.

Three phase instantaneous reIerence voltages (1) are transIormed to two phase (2). Every 60 degrees, Irom
zero to 360 degrees constitute a sector. IdentiIication oI the sector in which the tip oI the reIerence vector
lies is obtained by (3).

. Mathematical Modeling of Induction Machine
Three-phase asynchronous or induction machines which contain a cage, are very popular motors in many
industrial variable speed drive applications and all this is due to its simple construction, robustness,
inexpensive, reliability, good eIIiciency and good selI-starting capability and available at all power ratings.
Progress in the Iield oI power electronics and microelectronics enables the application oI induction motors
Ior high-perIormance drives, where traditionally only DC motors were applied. During starting up and
other severe transient operations induction motor draws large currents, produces voltage dips, oscillatory
torques and can even generate harmonics in the power systems by Vivek Pahwa et al.(2009), Ogubuka et
al.(2009). It is important to predict these phenomena. A transient Iree operation oI the induction machine is

with respect to the current by Krishnan (2003) and Leon et al. (1999). Various models have been developed
and the qd0 or two axis model Ior the study oI transient behaviors has been tested and proved to be very
reliable and accurate.

.2 J/f Control on Induction Motor
Most oI the industrial loads are operated based on constant Volts/Hz control method oI speed because oI its
simplicity. Neglecting the stator resistance drop, the ratio oI supply voltage to Irequency is maintained
constant by varying these variables. When the Irequency approaches to zero, the magnitude oI the stator
voltage also tends to zero and the stator resistance absorbs this low voltage. The stator resistance drop is
compensated at low speed by injecting the boost voltage to maintain rated air gap Ilux thus Iull load torque
is available up to zero speed. At steady state operation, iI load torque is increased, the slip increases within
stability limit and a balance will be maintained between the developed torque and the load torque. This
paper considered the V/I control on induction machine by Krishnan (2003).
5. Simulation Results and Conclusions
Simulation is carried out on nine-level diode-clamped inverter driven induction machine in synchronously
rotating reIerence Irame Ior two methods oI Space Vector PWM technique at switching Irequency 1.5 KHz
with APODC technique.
(i) SCMM CSVPWM-Single Carrier Multi-Modulation Ior Conventional SVPWM
(ii)MCMM CSVPWM-Multi-Carrier Multi-Modulation Ior Conventional SVPWM
In MCMM the carriers are in Alternative phase opposition disposition, where each carrier band is shiIted
by 180
0
Irom the adjacent bands.
Multi-Carrier Multi-Modulation results reduced harmonic distortion with reduced Iundamental component;
however Single Carrier Multi-Modulation results reduced harmonic distortion with highly improved
Iundamental component oI voltage.
Figure4 and Figure5 are responses oI induction machine Ior stator currents, electromagnetic torque and
speed oI MCMM and SCMM respectively.
The response is observed Ior speed reversal Irom 314 rad/sec to -314 rad/sec at time oI 0.86 seconds and
Irom -314 rad/sec to 314 rad/sec at time oI 0.85 seconds and 1.01 seconds respectively, in Figure6 and
Figure7. Transients are more in MCMM compared to SCMM. Reduced oscillatory behavior is observed in
MCMM. Settling time is less in SCMM compared to MCMM.
Figure6 shows the toque response with speed reversal at 0.86 seconds. When compared to MCMM, SCMM
results more torque.
Figure7 shows the speed response with change in toque Irom 0 to 50 N-m at 0.4 seconds. When compared
SCMM, dip in speed is more in MCMM.
Figure8 and Figure9 are the pole, phase and line voltages Ior SCMM and MCMM methods respectively.

Figure12 and Figure13 show the stator currents, torque and speed response Ior constant V/I control. The
load torque requirement shiIts Irom 0 to 50 N-m at 0.4 seconds. Modulation index is 0.906 (50 Hz) at 0
seconds, 0.84 (46 Hz) at 0.8 seconds, 0.73 (40 Hz) at 1.2 seconds, 0.62 (35 Hz) at 1.6 seconds, 0.906 (-50
Hz) at 2 seconds, 0.84 (-46 Hz) at 2.4 seconds, 0.73(-40 Hz) at 2.8 seconds, and 0.62 (-35 Hz), at 3.2
seconds.
Figure14 and Figure15 are the pole, phase and line voltages Ior SCMM and MCMM methods respectively
Ior constant V/I control.
When Irequency Ialls below 40 Hz the MCMM perIormance is poor compared to SCMM.
Ripple content is high with V/I control in SCMM.
