There is a video about this from Prof. Sam Ben-Yaakov:

TL;DW: It turns out it's not adding a real advantage when compared to a 
passive 2-pole filter. Which doesn't need the inverter, and uses the 
same number of passives.

BTW, check out that channel if you're interested in power electronics, 
SMPS and the like.


Cheers,
