In order to solve the problems caused by the susceptibility to changing weather conditions and the complex load conditions of photovoltaic (PV) systems, and the fact a single target inverter control strategy cannot effectively mitigate large voltage fluctuations at point of common coupling (PCC), an integrated reactive power control strategy for PV inverters is proposed. According to the weathe...

A high speed and low power CMOS inverter is designed & simulated in this paper. The critical path consists of PMOS and NMOS. The designed inverter cell offers high speed and low power consumption than the CMOS inverter. A Multi Threshold Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MTCMOS) technique is used to reduce the leakage current as well as leakage power to achieve better results. MTCMOS is ...

In this paper, a simpler implementation of the well-known droop method for the control of parallel Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) systems is presented. In this method, in the power-sharing control scheme, the output current is calculated by software without the need for a current sensor, resulting in a simpler and cheaper structure. By doing so, the number of feedback sensors is reduced fro...

In case of low voltage (12 to 24V) solar and battery powered sinus inverter applications a special converter topology for managing the high input current rating is required. Conventional solutions uses paralleled power MOSFETs to realize high current (several 100A) switches. In this paper a synchronized multi phase PWM concept was chosen to rise the over all efficiency of the inverter. In gener...

One of the difficulties with PWM switching converters is high switching loss and electromagnetic interference due to switching at non-zero voltage and current, which limits the operating frequency. In order to reduce the converter volume and weight (by increasing the frequency) and reducing switching losses, zero voltage and current switching methods are recommended. In this paper, four main ze...

In this paper, a method is introduced which reduces the harmonicdistortion of the inverter output current, connecting the fuelcell to the AC load. Using FUZZY LOGIC-PI (FLPI), the controllingmethod is engaged in optimum tuning of the PI controllercoefficients of this converter. This converter has only one DC-ACboost inverter and simultaneously has the task of increasingvoltage level and generat...

Abstract: This paper presents a recent popular power inverter which is impedance source or Z-source inverter (ZSI) and the comparison and analysis of two conventional PWM techniques of Z-source inverter. Due to the impedance network it couples inverter main circuit to the power source thus providing special features that can overcome the limitations of traditional voltage source inverter (VSI) ...
