New circuit D-Q transformation concept is introduced to analyze AC converters such as inverters, rectifiers and cyclo-converters with ease. The equivalent linear time invariant circuit is obtained by substituting switches with equivalent turn-ratio variable transformers and changing balanced AC reactors into equivalent DC reactors combined by gyrators. This circuit enables us to utilize the powerful linear system analysis techniques such as Laplace transform otherwise which could not be applied to the time varying switching systems. Direct substitution of switches of DC converters with transformers is shown as a preliminary. Then the modeling procedure is shown for a controlled rectifier-inverter circuit. Finally an analysis example is proposed for a buck-boost inverter and the result is compared with the conventional approach. This approach is applicable to all AC converter families to determine the AC transfer functions and the DC operating points. It is identified that the switching systems are equivalent to the RLC filter circuits with transformers and gyrators.

This paper presents a current-source-inverter based on a buck-boost configuration and its application for residential photovoltaic system. The proposed circuit has five switches. Among them, only one switch acts as chopping, and the other determine the polarity of output; therefore, it can reduce the switching loss. Because the input inductor current is operated on the discontinuous conduction mode, high power factor can be achieved without additional input current controller, So the overall system shows a simple structure. The operational modes are analysed in depth, and then it was verified through the experimental results using a 150 [W] prototype equipped with digital signal processor TMS320F241.

In this paper, the operation of current-fed quasi-Z-source inverter (QZSI) with buck-boost function, improved reliability, and regeneration capability is analyzed. The modified space modulation technique for controlling effectively both shoot-through time and zero voltage time is suggested. The simulation result is carried out in order to verify the performance of proposed technique.

On the basis of the traditional ZSI (Z-source inverter), this paper presents a ESL-${\Gamma}$-ZSI, which uses a unique ${\Gamma}$-shaped impedance network and an extended SL network for boosting its output voltage in addition to their usual voltage-buck behavior. The inverter can increase the boost factor through adjusting shoot-through duty ratio and increasing the number of inductors. Capacitor voltage stress of ESL-${\Gamma}$-ZSI is a constant when 1>D>0, and ESL-${\Gamma}$-ZSI has small inductor current stress. The working principle of ESL-${\Gamma}$-ZSI and comparison with the classical ZSI and SL- ZSI are analyzed in detail. The power loss comparison between ESL-${\Gamma}$-ZSI and Cuk converter is analyzed detailedly. Simulation and experimental results are given to demonstrate the operation features of the inverter.

The control method of the bidirectional DC/DC converter for instantaneous regenerative current control is described in this paper. The general method to control the DC/DC converter is the output voltage control. However, the regenerative current cannot be controlled to be constant with this control method. To improve the performance of the conventional control method, the DC-link voltage of the inverter is controlled within the tolerance range by the instantaneous boost and buck operations of the bidirectional DC/DC converter. By the proposed control method, the battery current can be controlled to be constant regardless of the motor speed variation. The improved performance of the DC/DC converter controlled by the proposed control method is verified by the experiment and simulation of the system with the inverter and IPMSM(Interior Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor) which is operated by the reduced practical speed profile.

본 논문에서는 유사 DC-Link 타입의 태양광 마이크로 인버터에서 요구되는 대용량의 전해 커패시터의 단점을 지적하고 이를 제거하기 위해 shunt 방식으로 연결되는 양방향 벅-부스트 컨버터 제어방법을 제안한다. 태양광 마이크로 인버터는 동작 특성상 PV 입력단에 120Hz 리플이 존재하지만 대용량의 전해 커패시터를 적용함으로써 리플을 제거할 수 있다. 하지만 전해 커패시터의 짧은 수명이 전체 시스템의 신뢰성을 저하시키기 때문에 이를 극복하기 위한 부가적인 회로가 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 제안한 1차측의 플라이백 스위치 전류 제어기의 레퍼런스를 공유함으로써 전류 센서수를 감소시키고 PV 입력단 Capacitance를 낮출 수 있는 양방향 벅-부스트 회로의 제어기를 시뮬레이션을 통하여 검증하였다.

본 논문에서는 저가형 고효율의 탭인덕터 벅-부스트 마이크로 인버터를 제안한다. 제안하는 인버터는 정상상태 연속모드(CCM)에서 단상전력계통에 고역률의 정현파전류를 공급할 수 있는 새로운 구조이다. 강압시에는 벅모드로 동작하며, 승압시에는 탭인덕터 부스트 모드로 동작한다. 정류형태의 전류를 2차측에 공급하면, 낮은 주파수를 사용하는 전파정류 인버터가 고역률의 교류 파형으로 변환한다. 벅부스트에 탭인덕터를 적용함으로써 권선비에 따른 시비율을 조절할 수 있어 극단적인 승압시에도 벅부스트의 도통을 적절히 유지할 수 있다. 제안하는 인버터는 정상상태 연속모드(CCM)에서 PSIM을 통해 시뮬레이션을 하여 증명하였다.

As well known, the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is an important role in photovoltaic (PV) power systems. MPPT finds and maintains the operation of PV at the maximum power point when the irradiation and cell-temperature change. In this paper, the studied system includes a PV array, a Buck-Boost DC/DC converter, a DC/AC inverter and it is connected to the three phase power system. The solar array operates as a non-linear voltage source. The P&O algorithm with power feed-back is used to control the operating point of PV array at the maximum power point. The effects of irradiation and cell-temperature on the dynamic responses are also considered.
