摘要
This paper deals with the real time implementation of 11-level cascade multilevel inverter-based STATCOM using personal computer ( PC) and ADD-ON cards for power system voltage control at the point of common coupling. Complete hardware and software development procedures have been explained in depth for direct as well as indirect control schemes. Experimental results are presented and it is shown that voltage control is achieved using cascade multilevel inverter based STATCOM, thus verifying the very basic purpose of STATCOM. Real time implementation using PC-based control technique has certain merits over digital signal processor based implementation, and some of these merits are high processing speed and low cost of implementation; therefore, PC-based implementation can be used in industry as well as for utility applications.
