This paper presents an interfacing system of a photovoltaic (PV) array with an electrical grid based on a dual cascaded inverter. The PV array is connected to the main inverter through a boost converter, for maximum power extraction, while the dc-side of the auxiliary inverter is connected to a capacitor bank. The main and auxiliary inverters are controlled to deliver the harvested maximum power from...

In an islanded microgrid, harmonic current is controlled (or shared) by modifying the effective impedance in the path of harmonic current. This effective impedance includes line impedance and the internal impedance of the generation unit. Reported works consider the aforementioned impedances as separate entities and their combined effect in harmonic current flow has not been discussed so far. This...
H-bridge cascaded inverter can be used for harmonic compensation in medium and high voltage systems. As the equivalent switching frequency is high, L-type filter is commonly used for H-bridge cascaded inverter. Meanwhile, considering device safety and filtering effect, inductance value of L filter is large. When the command current contains harmonics, especially high harmonics, large connecting inductance...

Grid-connected Voltage Source Inverters (VSIs) equipped with LCL filters are attractive in utility applications for their better power quality features, while the inherent LCL resonance may limit the current control loop bandwidth or even threaten system stability. Simple but effective single-loop current control strategies have been studied for obtaining a stable system, where either the inverter-side...
Due to the advantages of cost, volume and efficiency, transformerless grid-connected power converters have drawn an increasing attention, especially in low-power PV applications. However, the lack of isolation between inverter and grid brings in some potential risks to the distribution network. Among them, the dc injection flows into the grid remains a significant concern. Owing to the offset and...

The proposed converter consists of a single-phase diode rectifier, a small film capacitor at the DC bus, a three-phase voltage-source inverter, and a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM). Since the DC bus capacitor is quite small, the input current of the AC source will be affected directly by the three-phase inverter...
Voltage unbalance in a three-phase system introduces oscillations to the DC Link voltage and power. Moreover, it causes performance deterioration of a pulsewidth modulation (PWM) of the back-to back voltage source converter systems (BTB-VSC) by producing the double-line-frequency ripples in the dc link voltage and power. This paper proposes a new control strategy by developing the conventional vector...
