title = "An Improved Cascaded Dual-Buck Inverter",
abstract = "The cascaded H-bridge inverter plays an important role for achieving a high output voltage using standard low voltage rating semiconductor devices in dc-ac power conversion. It possesses shoot-through problem, and requires dead-time in switching signals to solve it. The dead-time reduces practical voltage gain and output waveforms quality. To overcome these inconveniences, an improved cascaded dual-buck inverter having no shoot-through problem is presented in this paper. It can be operated without using dead-times in switching signals. Additionally, the proposed inverter is capable of using power MOSFETs without reverse recovery issues of their body diodes to boost efficiency and increase switching frequencies.compared to the conventional dual-buck dc-ac inverter, the proposed inverter reduces the inverter volume and cost by using fewer inductors. To validate the feasibility of the proposed inverter simulation and experimental results are presented.",
