Abstract

For providing better reliability and getting minimal harmonics, multilevel inverters are commonly employed in grid connected photovoltaic systems. This paper presents 27 level inverter with reduced switch topology to get better reliability with low harmonics. This inverter performance completely relies on EANFIS controller which is the combination of ANFIS and Emperor Penguin Optimization (EPO) algorithm. Working procedure of ANFIS will be optimized by EPO to make us easy to deal MLI switching angle and produce harmonic-less control voltage. EPO provides efficient result by means of computational complexity, time and space complexity. In our work, this is the main reason to select EPO for optimizing ANFIS controller. The proposed work will be implemented in Simulink working environment. Resultant outcomes like inverter output, controller output and THD analysis will be compared with recently developed existing works.
