The main aim of this paper is to design a highly compatible standalone photovoltaic (PV) system with reduced switch count multilevel inverter (MLI) to feed 500W ac load with better power quality. MLI's are becoming eminent because of their high power capability with low harmonic content. Cascaded multilevel inverters are extensively preferred in PV system because it has a distinctive characteristic...
A two-stage converter working in dual mode time sharing is proposed for single-phase photovoltaic applications. The converter encompasses a dual boost front end and a single-phase three-level Neutral Point Clamped grid inverter. According to the time sharing strategy, the boost stage is by-passed and only the Neutral Point Clamped inverter is operated when the input voltage is greater than the actual...
The present work deals with a nonlinear control strategy for the purpose of photovoltaic (PV) systems integration into the power system through cascaded Z-source H-bridge inverters. The topology of the proposed system which is able to obtain a 5-level voltage is discussed. To facilitate a systematic voltage control, an exact nonlinear model of the proposed system is presented. A nonlinear voltage...
Multilevel inverter units for stand-alone solar photovoltaic systems are gaining popularity in the present industrial environment. The number of switching devices, total harmonic distortion, number of output levels and number of sources are the governing factors in a multilevel inverter topology. The classical multilevel inverter topologies produce a considerable amount of switching losses due to...
This paper presents a Model Predictive Control (MPC) for grid-tied Packed U Cells (PUC) multilevel inverter. The system under study consists of a single-phase 3-cell PUC inverter connected to the grid through filtering inductor. The proposed topology allows the generation of 7-level output voltage with reduction of passive and active components compared to the conventional multilevel inverters. The...
Now a day's distributed generations (DG) systems are generally integrated with single phase grid at small scale. The power delivered from such DG sources depends on factors like energy availability and load demand. To achieve the reliability of the system a good quality of power must be transmitted to the grid with less harmonic and unbalance. Hence proper control action is to be carried out to control...
This paper presents a single-phase Cascaded H-Bridge (CHB) inverter for photovoltaic (PV) applications. The adopted control strategy allows the independent control of each dc-link voltage, enabling the tracking of the maximum power point (MPP) of each solar panel. Based on the presented mathematical analysis, the stable operation boundaries of the inverter under unbalanced operation conditions, without...
