Abstrakt: This paper proposes a small-signal model and Floquet-theory-based method for analyzing small-signal stability of a single-phase asymmetric cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (ACHMI) operating in the stand-alone mode. The studied ACHMI system consists of the power stage and cascaded control loops, which includes the voltage loop in the synchronous reference frame (SRF), capacitor current feedback control, and hybrid modulation scheme. Due to the SRF voltage control, the derived small-signal model under linear and nonlinear load conditions are inherently periodically time-variant. Therefore, the Floquet theory is employed to analyze the stability regions of the dual-loop control parameters of the ACHMI. Furthermore, the loci and moduli of Floquet multipliers are calculated to accurately evaluate the respective effects of control parameters on the stability of the system. With the stability analysis based on the small-signal model and Floquet-theory-based method, an effective selection range of control parameters of the multilevel inverter can be obtained. Finally, the experimental results from a reduced-scale laboratory prototype ACHMI are presented to validate the theoretical analysis, and the effectiveness of proposed analysis method in high-power applications is verified by the simulation results from a 10-kV medium-voltage ACHMI.
