Abstract

The cascaded H-bridge converter topology makes a high voltage power supply structure with distributed energy storage for all-electric aircraft possible. In this paper, different cascaded H-bridge converter topologies are compared regarding mass and efficiency, with a focus on the requirements for the energy storage in a battery-powered short-range aircraft.
