최근 환경오염과 화석연료 고갈 때문에 신재생에너지원의 효율적인 활용은 중요한 화두가 되고있다. 신재생에너지를 효율적으로 사용하기 위한 PCS(Power Conditioning System)에서 인버터 동작에 의한 120Hz 리플은 신재생 에너지원을 효율적으로 사용하기위한 MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking)에 영향을 준다. 본 논문은 태양광 PCS 설계할 때 인버터 출력전류에 의하여 발생되는 태양광패널 전압리플을 저감하기 위하여 부스트 컨버터의 제어기 설계방법을 제안하고자 한다. 제안된 방법을 통하여 태양광 전압의 전압리플을 제거하여 원활한 MPPT 동작을 할 수 있게 만든다. 제안된 방법을 설명하고 이의 타당성을 증명하기 위하여 PSIM과 MATLAB simulation을 검증하였다.

This paper presents a study of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for photovoltaic arrays with only one current sensor. Initially, a review of MPPT methods with only a current sensor is performed with extension for a variety of dc/dc converters. Furthermore, the same topology is developed to achieve better performance in the presence of sensor offset and environmental noise. The proposed method is robust, cost effective, and behaves well dynamically and in the steady state. After a theoretical analysis of presented approach, its validity and effectiveness are verified by simulation and experimental results.

In this study, constant power generation (CPG) algorithms are introduced for whole range power point tracking in photovoltaic systems. Currently, maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm is widely used for high-power photovoltaic systems. However, MPPT algorithm cannot flexibly control such systems according to changing grid conditions. Maintaining grid stability has become important as the capacity of grid-connected photovoltaic systems is increased. CPG algorithms are required to generate the desired power depending on grid conditions. A grid-connected photovoltaic system is configured, and CPG algorithms are implemented. The performances of the implemented algorithms are compared and analyzed by experimental results.

This research suggests maximum power point tracking (MPPT) for the solar photovoltaic (PV) power scheme using a new constant voltage (CV) fractional order incremental conductance (FOINC) algorithm. The PV panel has low transformation efficiency and power output of PV panel depends on the change in weather conditions. Possible extracting power can be raised to a battery load utilizing a MPPT algorithm. Among all the MPPT strategies, the incremental conductance (INC) algorithm is mostly employed due to easy implementation, less fluctuations and faster tracking, which is not only has the merits of INC, fractional order can deliver a dynamic mathematical modelling to define non-linear physiognomies. CV-FOINC variation as dynamic variable is exploited to regulate the PV power toward the peak operating point. For a lesser scale photovoltaic conversion scheme, the suggested technique is validated by simulation with dissimilar operating conditions. Contributions are made in numerous aspects of the entire system, including new control algorithm design, system simulation, converter design, programming into simulation environment and experimental setup. The results confirm that the small tracking period and practicality in tracking of photovoltaic array.

Photovoltaic and fuel cell systems can be used as power source in mobile robots. At this time the photovoltaic system generally generate power in daytime. The starting time of fuel cell is slower than the lithium battery. To compensate for these disadvantages, a battery charge-discharge system is used. Especially the bi-directional converter is used mainly in the charge-discharge method. The controller in a buck converter controls the input voltage of the converter to meet the maximum power point tracking(MPPT) performance. First of all, the simulations of hybrid system for battery charge-discharge system in each step simulated using solar and fuel cell modeling as input source in PSIM. Experiment of the buck and bi-directional converter system is conducted through using photovoltaic/fuel cel simulator(pCube) instead of solar and fuel cell. This hybrid system for battery charge discharge using photovoltaic/fuel cell generates emergency power for the communication system in mobile robot.

This paper shows how to design a global control of water pumping system using PV array, and tracked maximum power point of PV array only the inverter using the vector control of BLDC motor, and finding the relationships among the DC magnitudes and AC ones in order to omit the DC/DC converter. Conventional MPPT controller was unstable of reason of the ripple-current of DC link in three-phase invertor. Thus, in this paper the control algorithm of BLDC motor using $i_qs$ current is composed to improve the insecurity of conventional MPPT controller To prove the excellence of the proposed method, the contents of this paper is analyzed by means of simulation and testing for the results applying the method that J. A Domfnguez had applied to asynchronous motor to BLDC motor and that of the proposed method in this paper.

In this paper, we proposed a design photovoltaic generation systems with SEPIC-Flyback converter. The SEPIC-Flyback converter is operated to SEPIC converter the state turn-on of the switch and the state turn-off the switch is operated Flyback converter. Therefore application rate of the core increases and voltage stress of switch and transformer decreases with active clamp operation. Also we performed MPPT(Maximum Power Point Tracking) control for efficient working of Photovoltaic Dower generation system.

Photovoltaic systems normally use a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) technique to continuously deliver the highest possible power to the load when variations in the insolation and temperature occur. A simple method of tracking the maximum power points (MPPs) and forcing the boost converter system to operate close to these Points is presented through deriving small-signal model and transfer function of boost converter. This paper aims at modeling boost converter including equivalent series resistance of input reservoir capacitor by state-space-averaging method and PWM switch model. In the future, properly designed controller for compensation will be constructed in real system for maximum photovoltaic power tracking control.

In photovoltaic system, the characteristics of photovoltaic module such as open circuit voltage and short circuit current will be changed because of cell temperature and solar radiation. Therefore, the boost converter of a PV system connects between the output of photovoltaic system and DC link capacitor of grid connected inverter as controlling duty ratio for maximum power point tracking(MPPT). This paper shows the dynamic characteristics of the boost converter by comparing single-loop and two-loop control algorithm using both analog and digital control. Both proposed compensation methods have been verified with computer simulation to demonstrate the validity of the proposed control schemes.
