IV. CONCLUSION
In this paper a single phase Unipolar and Bipolar SPWM-
based H-bridge inverter are explored using MATLAB-Simulik
to testify the result of different values of modulation index on
the total THD. The best performance in the Bipolar inverter is
given at ma =1.0 while that for Unipolar inverter is at ma =0.9.
The output current of the unipolar inverter is exhibiting a more
refined sinusoidal waveform and at same instance with less
THD compared to the Bipolar inverter. By comparing the
results between a Unipolar and bipolar PWM inverter, the best
sinusoidal output signal is produced by a unipolar PWM-
triggered inverter.
