A high-frequency isolated multilevel cascaded-type bipolar direct PWM ac-ac converter is proposed. By cascading N-unit cells, the converter can produce symmetric bipolar voltage gain of &#x00B1;ND. It does not require a separate ac source for each unit cell, and can provide higher ac output voltages with multiple levels using low-voltage rating devices, decreasing output voltage harmonics and filtering requirements. Moreover, phase-shift PWM switching is employed, increasing the effective frequency of the output filter, further reducing its requirements. The converter can be utilized as a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) for grid voltage regulation, with the following features: No need for an external dc source, separate ac sources, and a line-frequency voltage injection transformer. Injection of higher voltage magnitudes than the line voltage, mitigating deep voltage sags. Injection of a negative series voltage to provide compensation for voltage swells. The detailed circuit operation is explained together with component design guidelines and application as DVR. Finally, experimental results are provided using an 800-W scale-down laboratory prototype.
