This document presents a comparative investigation of a 7-level cascaded multilevel inverter using different multicarrier pulse width modulation techniques. It discusses the classification, operation, and modulation strategies of multilevel inverters including diode clamped, flying capacitor, and cascaded H-bridge topologies. Simulation results in MATLAB/Simulink are presented to analyze the total harmonic distortion for a 7-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter using phase disposition, alternate phase opposition disposition, and phase opposition disposition pulse width modulation techniques. The research aims to improve the output waveform quality and reduce switching losses of the 7-level inverter.
