Non-linear PWM Controlled Single-phase Boost Mode Grid-Connected Photovoltaic Inverter with Limited Storage Inductance Current

Abstract:

A nonlinear pulse width modulation-controlled single-phase boost mode photovoltaic grid-connected inverter with limited storage inductance current is proposed in this paper. The circuit topology, control strategy, steady-state principle characteristic, and design criterion for the key circuit parameters of this kind of inverter are investigated in depth, and important conclusions are obtained. The inverter’s regenerating energy duty ratio 1-D which decreases with the decline of the grid-connected voltage is real time adapted by sampling and feeding back the inverting bridge modulation current, and the average value of the modulation current in each switching cycle tracks the reference sinusoidal signal to get high-quality grid-connected current. The active control of the energy storage inductance current and the balance of the voltage step-up ratio are realized by adding a bypass switch connected in parallel with the energy storage inductance and using two kinds of switching pattern namely boost pattern and freewheeling pattern. The theoretical analysis and experimental results of the 1 kVA 110 VDC/220 V50 Hz photovoltaic grid-connected inverter prototype show that it has the advantages such as single-stage boost conversion, high conversion efficiency, high quality of grid-connected current waveform, low value of energy storage inductance, simple control, et
