Recently, special attention has been devoted to the health monitoring aspect of power electronics devices since it became an essential step to ensure and guarantee the availability of the overall power electronics systems. Dc-link capacitors, despite their type or technology are one of the main devices to monitor since they are responsible of more than 30% of the power electronics equipment breakdowns...
This paper proposes a new ZCS non-isolated bidirectional buck-boost DC-DC converter for energy storage applications. The conventional bidirectional converter was derived with auxiliary resonant cell to obtain ZCS turn-on/turn-off condition of the main switches. The proposed converter was operated in boost and buck modes with soft-switching operations in order to minimize the current stresses and switching...
In this paper the three-phase 7-level Packed U-Cell (PUC) converter has been employed as a shunt active power filter (APF) to compensate the load harmonics in a power network. Using multilevel converter as APF results in generating low distortion waveforms as well as operating in low switching frequency. A PI controller has been used to compensate the load harmonics and to correct the source side...
Metallized polymer film capacitors, assuming a special position among the various types of capacitors thanks to their capabilities to self-heal, became the components of choice for critical power electronics applications requiring optimized performances such as, avionics, automotive and railways equipment's. However, as a result of the increasingly growing demand for guaranteeing safety and enhancing...
The growth of energy demand and decentralised renewable energy generation (e.g. photovoltaic, eolic) can lead to electric grid imbalances requiring extra investments in the electric grid infrastructure. One of the goals of Smart-Home and Smart-Grid solutions is to solve this issue. The majority of the solutions are focused on centralised load management. Furthermore most of the Smart-Home and Smart-Grid...
In order to increase the reliability and efficiency of Shunt Active Power Filter (SAPF), this paper proposes a novel fault-tolerant topology which can reconfigure the inverter circuit in fault condition. Redundancy operation is achieved by connecting the endpoint of fault phase to the midpoint of DC-bus. On this basis, working principle of fault-tolerant SAPF is analyzed and a control strategy which...
This work presents a simplified predictive controller for the Cascade Asymmetric Multilevel Converter (CAMC). Instead of evaluating all target variables simultaneously (phase currents, voltages on the flying capacitors and midpoint voltage on the DC bus), the method uses the line voltage redundancy and the phase redundancy in a separate way and exploits their effects over each group of target variables...
This paper presents a muli-input multi-output battery-less energy harvesting system for microscale wireless sensor nodes that combines piezoelectric and photovoltaic energy sources.

A maximum power point tracking...
An important trend in photovoltaic lines of research is the use of plug and play microinverters attached to the panel, allowing the so called AC module. However, these converters are subjected to high temperature and humidity. In order to improve reliability and achieve long lifetime, this work proposes a new topology, which provides inductive power decoupling and eliminates electrolytic and even...

This converter is one of the direct AC/AC power converters suitable for medium-voltage high-power machine drives with regenerative capacity. One of the main feature of this converter is that does not need external dc-voltage supplies and thus, all capacitor...
Two four-level five-phase open-end winding drives are analysed in this paper, and their performances compared. The first topology consists of two two-level voltage source inverters (VSI) supplying a five-phase machine with open-end windings (OeW). The second topology comprises one three-level and one two-level VSI to supply the five-phase OeW machine. In both cases, two VSIs are supplied from isolated...

The topology takes advantage of the MMC characteristics by offering multilevel output voltage with low Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), increased reliability, and design flexibility due to the modular nature of the converter [1] and [2]. This topology is composed of a “full-bridge converter” (FBC) connected to multiple “High...

The proposed model, based on instantaneous...
