This paper investigates nonlinear control methods for single-ended primary-inductor converters (SEPIC). The fast-switching and average models show the converter nonlinearity in terms of inductor currents, capacitor voltages, and the switching duty cycle. The control law intuitively should be nonlinear to drive and guarantee the system stability. Two different control laws based on the passivity and...
This paper investigates the operation principle, modeling, and control of a hexagonal converter for grid connected photovoltaic (PV) systems. The hexagonal converter is composed of six conventional two-level voltage source converters (VSCs) in which each VSC module are connected to a string of PV modules. The equivalent circuit model of the proposed topology is first detailed in the abc reference...
This paper provides a novel voltage space vector modulation algorithm dedicated to the inverter fault-tolerant motor drive systems based on the four-switch inverter topology. The proposed technique ensures an accurate phase voltage modulation even under a DC-link voltage imbalance. Moreover, the capacitor voltages of the DC-link are leveled up so that the simultaneous motor drive operation is obtained...
This paper proposes an energy storage unit integrated dual input PV system with distributed maximum power point tracking (MPPT). Through applying a symmetrical configuration, the proposed PV system has a single stage structure to implement voltage boosting and inversion, which contributes to the advantages such as compact size and high power conversion efficiency. The design of the control strategy...
At present, the field of power factor corrected (PFC) rectifiers are very much matured. Typically a single phase PFC converter requires measurements from three independent sensors i.e. input voltage, input current and output voltage. By considering a need of farther compact and more flexible in terms of input to output voltage gain, a new UPF rectifier with two buck-boost converter operating in interleaved...
This paper proposes a modified sub-module voltage measurement technique for the PSC-PWM modulated modular multilevel converter (MMC) using less voltage sensors. With this technique, the sub-modules per arm are divided into several groups according to their respect carrier phase angles. This arrangement ensures that only one sensor is needed within each divided group. Therefore, the number of sensors...
