This paper presents different kinds of grid-tied cascade H-bridge inverter and has a look to predictive current control technique. Finally the simulation result will show a Model predictive current control of a five-level cascaded H-bridge inverter indifferent sampling times by using MATLAB Simulink software. And this Model Predictive current controller for the five-level cascaded H-bridge inverter times has been created to display Total Harmonic Distortion level of the load and reference current pursuing for a step change with different sampling frequencies.
