ABSTRACT
The major consequence of the paper is about the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) of
harmonics for the H-Bridge inverter output voltage waveform using artificial neural network (ANN).
PWM inverters are of wide and great impact in no end of engineering disciplines. Its plays for an
implant role in the domain of power electronics and many. These papers clarify the use of artificial
neural network in gate signals control in Pulse width modulation voltage source inverter. In the SHE
stand on inverter, the fundamental voltage and the harmonics chosen for deletion are unmistakable,
using a neural network. For the SHE technique, the results of achieve switching angle patterns, using
the ANN, for step on H-bridge inverter, show nearly accurate resemblance, when compared to those
obtained using conventional methods. Also this technique has many advantages like quick response
in choosing and generating the PWM patterns, bush delay time etc., which are vital to shape up the
inverter output voltage.

utility and drives applications. The Power Quality and Reliability has become a major concern for
electrical engineers. These harmonics are to be kept below a safe limit to avoid their detrimental
effects and for maintaining power factor of the system. One of these systems is the Voltage source

inverter, is used in various fields of power converters such as SMPS, HVDC, UPS, drives and
tractions [1]. Voltage Source Inverter it’s nearly now to convert DC to AC supply at needed number
of phases and values of voltage and frequency. Various PWM methods were used to generate the
gate signals for switching the power switching devices in the inverter. The ultimate efficient method
is the PWM that has ability to shape up the magnitude and frequency of inverter output voltage, and
also eliminating serious harmonic components of the output voltage. This nature of Voltage Source
Inverter, based on Pulse Width Modulation method, can be performed different types of approach.
The fundamental, types are; natural sampling, suboptimal, optimal and harmonic elimination
strategies. Every one of this type depends on an algorithm that generates the Gate Pulse which are
used to drive the inverter switching power devices [2]. The most effective type is SHE technique,
which eliminates low order harmonics from the spectrum and also make less the total harmonic
distortion (THD) [3]. In order to obtain the PWM pattern, first the non linear equations of ANN
technique should be solved. These non linear equations are formed by the unknown switching angles
which are in turn decided by the number of harmonic components to be eliminated. These can be
reach a goal in off line and stored as look up tables. Due to the description of nonlinearity between
the switching angles and the fundamental of the PWM, a large number of look up tables are vital.
These look up tables are stored in a programmable memory and using for example,
microcomputer or microcontroller board which has been programmed to obtain the value of
modulation index and generate the conformable switching angles. The problems of the predominant
methods are the off line look up tables calculations, the choosing values of PWM pattern , or using
the analogy and digital hardware because the solution of the equations for solving switching angles is
challenging in on-line [4,9]. Therefore a propose techniques are applied by using the artificial neural
network. The neural network methods are effective for this case because they imitate nonlinear and
complex models and apply this theory by simulating it with MATLAB/SIMULINK program.
Section II deals with the problem formulation. Section III comprises of the theoretical
analysis of gate pulse generation using conventional Newton Rapshson algorithm. Section IV
depicts gate pulse generation and the steps involved in the proposed Hopfield Neural network
algorithm. Section V deals with the simulation of the H-bridge inverter using both the conventional
and proposed algorithm along with the comparison of the simulated results. Section VI deals with the
conclusion of the paper based on the comparison.
II. PROBLEM FORMULATION
The SHE-PWM technique is forthwith used to arrange an output voltage waveform of a full-
bridge inverter. In this study, a three-level Selective Harmonic Elimination pulse pattern generated
by an H-bridge inverter is considered. A H-bridge voltage source inverter, which involves four
switches and a dc source, is depicted in Fig. 1. And, Fig. 2 shows a discover three-level SHE-PWM
waveform, which was synthesized using the inverter circuit. The output waveform is chopped N
number of times per quarter cycle. Every switch is therefore switched 2N times per half cycle to
generate such a voltage waveform.
The H-bridge inverter operates on Positive, Negative and zero. Consider the discover three –
level SHE – PWM waveform shown in Fig. 2.

VI. CONCLUSION
It is observed that the trigger pulse-positions given by SHE controller produces better quality
of voltage at the Inverter output obtained from MATLAB simulation when compared to that of the
conventional numerical technique of Newton-Raphson method. The Intelligent SHE controller can
handle the complex non-linear transcendental equation set in a better manner producing the optimum
trigger pulse-positions. It is further observed that the Induction motor load is also delivering better
performance when driven by Intelligent SHE controlled Inverter. Thus this paper provides a detailed
analysis of SHE by using ANN technique.
