In this paper, a systematical controller design method for a twostage grid-connected photovoltaic power conditioning system is proposed. For a pre-stage boost converter to achieve the stable operation in the entire region of solar array, the digital resistive current mode controller is used. This algorithm is very simple to implement with a digital controller and there is no power stage parameter dependency in the controller design. For a post-stage single-phase full-bridge inverter, a PI controller with a feedforward compensation for the inner current control is employed. Furthermore, in case that the operating point of the solar array under varying environmental conditions is higher than the required voltage for the inverter current control, the bypass mode for the boost converter is possible for the more efficient operation. The proposed control scheme is validated through the experiment of the prototype two-stage power conditioning system hardware with a 200W solar array.

An investigation into power conditioners that interface with photovoltaic array and utilities has been completed. The rating for this investigation is residential system (3-5kW) that interface with a 220V single phase utility connection. As the result of this investigation. a 3kW high frequency PWM IGBT inverter feeding a high frequency isolation transformer with a sinusoidal current wave was selected. The output of the transformer rectified with a diode bridge rectifier four IGBT, used as 60Hz switched, reverse the polarity of the rectified current on every other half cycle of the utility voltage. Even though the high frequency link system used more power semiconductors, a net size, weight, and parts cost saving result compared to the other systems due to elimination of 60Hz transformer.

This paper proposed a method for controlling the active power of a single-phase grid-connected photovoltaic(PV) system by the quasi-Z-source inverter (QZSI). The MPPT of PV array is achieved by adjusting a shoot-through time of QZSI. The PI+R controller is used for reducing the steady-state error of the grid current. The simulation studies are carried out to verify the performances of proposed system.

본 논문에서는 무변압기형 3상 계통연계 PV PCS (photovoltaic power conditioning system)를 제안하였다. 태양전지의 국소 최대 전력점에서 발전하는 것을 방지하여 최대 전력점에서 발전을 하도록 개선한 P&O (perturb and observe) 방식의 MPPT (maximum power point tracking) 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 3상 전압형 인버터를 외부 직류 링크 전압제어기, 내부 전류제어기, 그리고 마이크로컨트롤러로 구현하기에 적합하도록 간단화한 공간벡터 변조법을 통해 제어하여 3상 계통연계 시 단위 역률을 실현하였다. 그리고 시스템의 안정성 향상과 역률 개선을 위해 직류 링크 전압을 더 빠르고 정확하게 제어하기 위한 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 모든 알고리즘과 제어기를 하나의 마이크로컨트롤러로 구현하고 제안된 알고리즘과 제어기의 우수성을 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

최근 태양광 시스템에서는 기존의 태양광 시스템을 계통과 전원으로 상호 접속하는 것에 대한 연구에 관심이 모아지고 있다. 단상, 삼상 시스템에 관계없이 태양광 시스템에서 태양광 인버터는 계통연계 동작에 중요한 역할을 하기 때문에 전체 시스템에서 핵심요소로 고려된다. 태양광 인버터를 제어하기 위해서는 부하 전류 조절이 핵심요소 중 하나이다. 일반적으로 태양광 인버터에서 이용되는 PI 제어기는 정상상태 오차와 왜란에 취약하다는 단점을 가지고 있기 때문에 실제 시스템에 완벽하게 적용하기에는 무리가 있다. 특히, 이는 고주파영역에서의 PI와 PR 제어기의 성능을 비교해보면 알 수 있다. 이 논문에서 제시된 PR 제어기는 무한 이득을 교류 기본파 성분에 넣을 수 있기 때문에 PR 제어기는 회전좌표계의 PI 제어기에서 사용되는 디커플링 기법과 복잡한 변환 없이 제로 정상상태오차에 도달할 수 있다. 그렇기 때문에 이 논문에서는 PI 제어기를 대체하는 이론적 분석을 통해 PR 제어기를 설계하였다. 논문에 제시되어 있는 이론을 바탕으로 한 PR 제어기를 고정 소수점 연산방식의 32비트 마이크로컨트롤러 DSP320F2812를 기반으로 한 3kW 프로토타입 태양광 인버터에 적용, 평가하였다. 또한 태양광 인버터의 제어 성능을 시뮬레이션과 실험결과를 통하여 보여주고 검증하였다.

Dual-mode photovoltaic power system should be capable of operating in grid-connected (GC) and stand-alone (SA) modes for distributed generation. Under different working modes, the optimal parameters of inverter output filters vary. Inverters commonly operate in GC mode, and thus, a small capacitance is beneficial to the GC topology for achieving a reasonable compromise. A predictive current control scheme is proposed to control the grid current in GC mode and thereby obtain high-performance power. As filter are not optimal under SA mode, a compound control strategy consisting of predictive current control, instantaneous voltage control, and repetitive control is proposed to achieve low total harmonic distortion and improve the output voltage spectrum. The seamless transfer between GC mode and SA mode is illustrated in detail. Finally, the simulation and experimental results of a 4 kVA prototype demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

This paper proposes a grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) system, consisting of Voltage-fed dual-active-bridge (DAB) dc-dc converter with single phase inverter. The proposed converter allows a small dc-link capacitor, so that system reliability can be improved by replacing electrolytic capacitors with film capacitors. The double line frequency free maximum power point tracking (MPPT) is also realized in the proposed converter by using Ripple Correlation method. First of all, to eliminate the double line frequency ripple which influence the reduction of DC source capacitance, control is developed. Then, a designing of Current control in DQ frame is analyzed and to fulfill the international harmonics standards such as IEEE 519 and P1547, $3^{rd}$ harmonic in the grid is directly compensated by the feedforward terms generated by the PR controller with the grid current in stationary frame to achieve desire Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). 5-kW PV converter and inverter module with a small dc-link film capacitor was built in the laboratory with the proposed control and MPPT algorithm. Experimental results are given to validate the converter performance.

In this paper, a PV multi-string PCS with a grid-connection is proposed. An improved MPPT algorithm for the PV multi-string PCS is suggested. Each PV string has its own MPP tracker and the proposed MPPT algorithm prevents LMPP tracking due to power ripple. In the PV PCS with single-phase inverter has a large current ripple at twice the grid frequency. The current ripple reduction algorithm without external component is suggested. Also, this paper proposes a simple control method to achieve sharing of the PV string voltage and current among the interleaved parallel boost converters. All algorithms and controllers are implemented on a single-chip microcontroller. Experimental results obtained on a 3kW prototype show high performance of the proposed PV multi-string PCS.

The pumping of electric power from photovoltaic (PV) farms is normally carried out using transformers, which require heavy mounting structures and are thus costly, less efficient, and bulky. Therefore, transformerless schemes are developed for the injection of power into the grid. Compared with the H4 inverter topology, the H6 topology is a better choice for pumping PV power into the grid because of the reduced common mode current. This paper presents how the perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) can be implemented in the H6 inverter topology along with the improved sinusoidal current injected to the grid at unity power factor with the average current mode control technique. On the basis of the P&O MPPT algorithm, a power reference for the present insolation level is first calculated. Maintaining this power reference and referring to the AC sine wave of bus bars, a sinusoidal current at unity power factor is injected to the grid. The proportional integral (PI) controller and fuzzy logic controller (FLC) are designed and implemented. The FLC outperforms the PI controller in terms of conversion efficiency and injected power quality. A simulation in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment is carried out. An experimental prototype is built to validate the proposed idea. The dynamic and steady-state performances of the FLC controller are found to be better than those of the PI controller. The results are presented in this paper.
