Wind energy has drawn worldwide attention because of its simple structure, high efficiency and stable operation. Recently, variable speed constant frequency (VSCF) direct-drive wind power generation system using permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) has gained popularity. This paper focuses on the simulation of PMSG fed diode clamped MultiLevel Inverter (MLI) for wind applications. A three-level MLI with phase disposition PWM technique has been proposed. Simulation studies on the proposed scheme have been carried out in MATLAB and spectral quality of the output has been investigated.
