This paper presents a quasi-Z source converter fed inverter with active switched networks. The converter topology is implemented with the help of capacitor, inductor and diodes connected in such a manner to improve voltage gain. A novel active switching network is developed to improve the harmonic performance of converter. Thus, network designed uses a combination of active switches and diodes to reduce the voltage and current ripple in the quasi-Z source converter. The performance of proposed converter is evaluated using a simulation. The results proves that the proposed converter can achieve a better harmonic performance than a conventional converter.
