Dragonfly Algorithm-Based Optimization for Selective Harmonics Elimination in Cascaded H-Bridge Multilevel Inverters with Statistical Comparison

Harmonics worsen the quality of electrical signals, hence, there is a need to eliminate them. The test objects under discussion are single-phase versions of cascaded H-bridge (CHB) multilevel inverters (MLIs) whose switching angles are optimized to eliminate specific harmonics. The Dragonfly Algorit...
