Abstract:
This thesis compares two methods of designing grid-tie inverters. The first design topology is a traditional two stage approach consisting of an isolated DC-DC converter on the input followed by a high switching frequency SPWM (Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation) stage to produce the required low frequency sine wave output. The novel second design approach employs a similar DC-DC input stage capable of being modulated to provide a rectified sine wave output voltage/current waveform. This stage is followed by a simple low frequency switched Unfolding Stage to recreate the required sine wave output. Both of the above designs have advantages and disadvantages depending on operating parameters. The following work will compare the Unfolding Output Stage and the SPWM Output Stage at various power levels and power densities. Input stage topologies are similarly examined in order to determine the best design approach for each output stage under consideration.

Abstract:
Renewable or sustainable energy (SE) sources have attracted the attention of many countries because the power generated is environmentally friendly, and the sources are not subject to the instability of price and availability. This dissertation presents new trends in the DC-AC converters (inverters) used in renewable energy sources, particularly for photovoltaic (PV) energy systems. A review of the existing technologies is performed for both single-phase and three-phase systems, and the pros and cons of the best candidates are investigated. In many modern energy conversion systems, a DC voltage, which is provided from a SE source or energy storage device, must be boosted and converted to an AC voltage with a fixed amplitude and frequency. A novel switching pattern based on the concept of the conventional space-vector pulse-width-modulated (SVPWM) technique is developed for single-stage, boost-inverters using the topology of current source inverters (CSI). The six main switching states, and two zeros, with three switches conducting at any given instant in conventional SVPWM techniques are modified herein into three charging states and six discharging states with only two switches conducting at any given instant. The charging states are necessary in order to boost the DC input voltage. It is demonstrated that the CSI topology in conjunction with the developed switching pattern is capable of providing the required residential AC voltage from a low DC voltage of one PV panel at its rated power for both linear and nonlinear loads. In a micro-grid, the active and reactive power control and consequently voltage regulation is one of the main requirements. Therefore, the capability of the single-stage boost-inverter in controlling the active power and providing the reactive power is investigated. It is demonstrated that the injected active and reactive power can be independently controlled through two modulation indices introduced in the proposed switching algorithm. The system is capable of injecting a desirable level of reactive power, while the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) dictates the desirable active power. The developed switching pattern is experimentally verified through a laboratory scaled three-phase 200W boost-inverter for both grid-connected and stand-alone cases and the results are presented.

Abstract:
Renewable energy source plays an important role in the energy cogeneration and distribution. Traditional solar-based inverter system is two stages in cascaded, which has a simpler controller but low efficiency. A new solar-based single-stage grid-connected inverter system can achieve higher efficiency by reducing the power semiconductor switching loss and output stable and synchronized sinusoid current into the utility grid. Controlled by the digital signal processor, the inverter can also draw maximum power from the solar array, thereby maximizing the utilization of the solar array. In Chapter 1, a comparison between the traditional two-stage inverter and the single-stage inverter is made. To increase the ability of power processing and enhance the efficiency further, a full-bridge topology is chosen, which applies the phase-shift technique to achieve zero-voltage transition. In Chapter 2, average-mode and switch-mode Pspice simulations are applied. All the features of the inverter system are verified, such as stability, zero voltage transition and feed-forward compensation, etc. All these simulation results provide useful design tips for prototyping. In Chapter 3, a phase-shift controller is designed based on UCC3895. Also, a detailed design procedure is given, including key components selection, transformer and inductor design and driver circuits design. In Chapter 4, experimental results of a prototype DC/DC converter are presented and analyzed. By optimization of the circuit, the problems of the prototype are solved and the prototype is working stably. The thesis' conclusion is given in Chapter 5.

Abstract:
The proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a promising technology that can be manufactured in South Africa because of the platinum catalyst required. South Africa is rich in platinum and, therefore, the PEMFC system can be cost-effectively produced. In residential stationary applications of the PEMFC a power conditioning system is required to convert the de voltage output of the PEMFC to ac voltage. Therefore, the focus of this thesis is to analyse, simulate and design a power electronic dc-ac converter. The power electronic dc-ac converter is based on a transformerless single stage power conversion scheme, which has better weight, volume and efficiency than the commonly used two stage power conversion schemes. The selected topology is the boost inverter that consists of two identical boost converters for boosting and inversion of the PEMFC de voltage. Moreover, it achieves reliable operation under nonlinear loads, sudden load changes and inrush current, using a double loop control strategy. Initially, the double loop control strategy was introduced with proportional integral (Pl) controllers. Recently, with the widespread use of proportional resonant PR controllers, the PI controllers were replaced with PR controllers to achieve zero steady state error for the ac components of the reference. However, during the implementation of the PR controllers on the boost inverter, a significant de offset in the output voltage of the boost inverter was observed, which was due to the mismatch of the boost converters' parameters. The de voltage affects pulsating torque AC machines, accuracy in domestic watt-meter and safety of residual current protection. Furthermore, the output voltages of the boost converters showed a clipping effect, which was caused by the dead time of the switching devices used in the boost converters. An integral term was added to the PR controller to form the controller here called the proportional integral resonant (PIR) controller. This controller achieved satisfactory results of de and ac voltage reference following capability and maintains the same advantages of the PI controllers. However, the efficiency was not high due to the high resistance of the inductor used in the boost inverter system.

Abstract:
A single-phase grid connected transformerless photovoltaic (PV) inverter for residential application is presented. The inverter is derived from a boost cascaded with buck converter along with a line frequency unfolding circuit. Due to its novel operating modes, high efficiency can be achieved because there is only one switch operating at high frequency at a time, and the converter allows the use of power MOSFET and ultra-fast reverse recovery diode. This dissertation begins with theoretical analysis and modeling of this boost-buck converter based inverter. And the model indicates small boost inductance will leads to increase the resonant pole frequency and decrease the peak of Q, which help the system be controlled easier and more stable. Thus, interleaved multiple phases structure is proposed to have small equivalent inductance, meanwhile the ripple can be decreased, and the inductor size can be reduced as well. A two-phase interleaved inverter is then designed accordingly. The double-carrier modulation method is proposed based on the inverterâ s operation mode. The duty cycle for buck switch is always one if the inverter is running in boost mode. And the duty cycle for boost switches are always zero if the inverter is running in buck mode. Because of this, the carrier for boost mode is stacked on the top of the carrier for buck mode, as a result, there is no need to compare the input and output voltage to decide which mode the inverter should operate in. And the inverter operates smoothly between these two modes. Based on similar concept, three advanced modulation methods are proposed. One of them can help further improve the efficiency, and one of them can help increase the bandwidth and gain, and the last one takes the advantage of both. Based on similar concept, another three dual-mode double-carrier based SPWM inverters are proposed. With both step-up and step-down functions, this type of inverter can achieve high efficiency in a wide range because only one switch operates at the PWM frequency at a time. Finally, the simulation and experiment results are shown to verify the concept and the tested CEC (California Energy Commission) efficiency is 97.4%. It performs up to 2% more efficiently better than the conventional solution.

Abstract:
The output power variability of intermittent renewable sources can cause significant fluctuations in distribution system voltages. A local linear controller that exploits the capability of a photovoltaic inverter to provide both real and reactive power is described. This controller substitutes reactive power for real power when fluctuations in the output of the photovoltaic source are experienced. In this way, the inverter can help mitigate distribution system voltage fluctuations. In order to provide real and reactive to the grid, a three-phase grid-connected single-stage photovoltaic system with maximum power point tracking and power control is described. A method of reducing the current harmonic caused by resonance of the LC filter and transformer is presented. The local linear controller is examined using an example distribution system, and it is found that the controller is effective at mitigating voltage violations. The photovoltaic control system is examined using three-phase single-stage PV inverter system. The power control and damping system show good performance and stability under rapid change of irradiance.

Abstract:
Inverters play key roles in connecting sustainable energy (SE) sources to the local loads and the ac grid. Although there has been a rapid expansion in the use of renewable sources in recent years, fundamental research, on the design of inverters that are specialized for use in these systems, is still needed. Recent advances in power electronics have led to proposing new topologies and switching patterns for single-stage power conversion, which are appropriate for SE sources and energy storage devices. The current source inverter (CSI) topology, along with a newly proposed switching pattern, is capable of converting the low dc voltage to the line ac in only one stage. Simple implementation and high reliability, together with the potential advantages of higher efficiency and lower cost, turns the so-called, single-stage boost inverter (SSBI), into a viable competitor to the existing SE-based power conversion technologies. The dynamic model is one of the most essential requirements for performance analysis and control design of any engineering system. Thus, in order to have satisfactory operation, it is necessary to derive a dynamic model for the SSBI system. However, because of the switching behavior and nonlinear elements involved, analysis of the SSBI is a complicated task. This research applies the state-space averaging technique to the SSBI to develop the state-space-averaged model of the SSBI under stand-alone and grid-connected modes of operation. Then, a small-signal model is derived by means of the perturbation and linearization method. An experimental hardware set-up, including a laboratory-scaled prototype SSBI, is built and the validity of the obtained models is verified through simulation and experiments. Finally, an eigenvalue sensitivity analysis is performed to investigate the stability and dynamic behavior of the SSBI system over a typical range of operation.

The single-stage flyback Photovoltaic (PV) micro-inverter is considered as a simple and small in size topology but requires expensive digital microcontrollers such as Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) or Digital Signal Processor (DSP) to increase the system efficiency, this would increase the cost of the overall system. To solve this problem, based on a single-stage flyback structure, this paper proposed a low cost and simple analog-digital control scheme. This control scheme is implemented using a low cost ATMega microcontroller built in the Arduino Uno board and some analog operational amplifiers. First, the single-stage flyback topology is analyzed theoretically and then the design consideration is obtained. Second, a 120 W prototype was developed in the laboratory to validate the proposed control. To prove the effectiveness of this control, we compared the cost price, overall system efficiency, and THD values of the proposed results with the results obtained by the literature. So, a low system component, single power stage, cheap control scheme, and decent efficiency are achieved by the proposed system. Finally, the experimental results present that the proposed system has a maximum efficiency of 91%, with good values of the total harmonic distortion (THD) compared to the results of other authors

In this thesis, a modified version of the phasor pulse width modulation (PPWM) switching method for use in a single-stage three-phase boost inverter is presented. Because of the required narrow pulses in the PPWM method and limitations in controller resolution, e.g. dSPACE, the desired switching pattern for a boost inverter requires a costly processor. A low resolution processor can cause pulse dropping which results in some asymmetric conditions in output waveforms of the boost inverter and therefore, an increase in the THD of the output waveform. In order to solve this problem, a new switching pattern is developed which guarantees symmetric conditions in the switching pattern by discretizing the switching pattern in every switching cycle. This switching pattern has been applied to a boost inverter model developed by SimPowerSystems toolbox of MATLAB/Simulink. The model has been simulated in a wide range of input DC voltage and load. Moreover, a laboratory-scaled three-phase boost inverter has been designed, built, and tested using an identical switching pattern in the same input voltage and load range. Both simulation and experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the new switching pattern.

Abstract:
The generic concept of quasi-single-stage (QSS) power conversion topology for ac-dc rectification and dc-ac inversion is proposed. The topology is reached by direct cascading and synchronized switching of two variety of buck or two variety of boost switching networks. The family of QSS power converters feature single-stage power processing without a dc-link low-pass filter, a unidirectional pulsating dc-link voltage, soft-switching capability with minimal extra commutation circuitry, simple PWM control, and high efficiency and reliability. A new soft-switched single-phase QSS bi-directional inverter/rectifier (charger) topology is derived based on the QSS power conversion concept. A simple active voltage clamp branch is used to clamp the otherwise high transient voltage on the current-fed ac side, and at the same time, to achieve zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) for the switches in the output side bridge. Seamless four-quadrant operation in the inverter mode, and rectifier operation with unity power factor in the charger (rectifier) mode are realized with the proposed uni-polar center-aligned PWM scheme. Single-stage power conversion, standard half-bridge connection of devices, soft-switching for all the power devices, low conduction loss, simple center-aligned PWM control, and high reliability and efficiency are among its salient features. Experimental results on a 3 kVA bi-directional inverter/rectifier prototype validate the reliable operation of the circuit. Other single-phase and three-phase QSS bi-directional inverters/rectifiers can be easily derived as topological extensions of the basic QSS bi-directional inverter/rectifier. A new QSS isolated three-phase zero-voltage/zero-current-switching (ZVZCS) buck PWM rectifier for high-power off-line applications is also proposed. It consists of a three-phase buck bridge switching under zero current and a phase-shift-controlled full-bridge with ZVZCS, while no intermediate dc-link is involved. Input power and displacement factor control, input current shaping, tight output voltage regulation, high-frequency transformer isolation, and soft-switching for all the power devices are realized in a unified single stage. Because of ZVZCS and single-stage power conversion, it can operate at high switching frequency while maintaining reliable operation and achieving higher efficiency than standard two-stage approaches. A family of isolated ZVZCS buck rectifiers are obtained by incorporating various ZVZCS schemes for full-bridge dc-dc converters into the basic QSS isolated buck rectifier topology. Experimental and simulation results substantiate the reliable operation and high efficiency of selected topologies. The concept of charge control (or instantaneous average current control) of three-phase buck PWM rectifiers is introduced. It controls precisely the average input phase currents to track the input phase voltages by sensing and integrating only the dc rail current, realizes six-step PWM, and features simple implementation, fast dynamic response, excellent noise immunity, and is easy to realize with analog circuitry or to integrate. One particular merit of the scheme is its capability to correct any duty-cycle distortion incurred on only one of the two active duty-cycles which often happens in the soft-switched buck rectifiers, another merit is the smooth transition of the input currents between the 60o sectors. Simulation and preliminary experimental results show that smooth operations and high quality sinusoidal input currents in the full line cycle are achieved with the control scheme.

Abstract:
Isolated inverter can provide galvanic isolation which is necessary for some applications with safety regulations. Traditionally, a two-stage configuration is widely applied with isolated dc-dc stage and a sinusoidal pulse-width-modulated (SPWM) dc-ac stage. However, this two-stage configuration suffers from more components count, more complex control and tend to have lower efficiency and lower power density. Meanwhile, a large dc bus capacitor is needed to attenuate the double line frequency from SPWM for two-stage configuration. Therefore, the single-stage approach including an isolated dc-rectified sine stage and a line frequency unfolder is preferable. Since the unfolder circuit is at line frequency being almost lossless, the isolated dc-rectified sine stage becomes critical. However, the relevant research for the single-stage isolated inverter is limited. People either utilize PWM based converter as dc-rectified sine stage with duty cycle adjustment or apply SRC or LLC resonant converter for better soft switching characteristics. For PWM based converter, hard switching restricts the overall inverter efficiency, while for SRC/LLC, enough wide voltage gain range and full range ZVS are the major issues. This dissertation aims to provide solutions for a high-efficiency, high-frequency resonant converter based single-stage soft-switching isolated inverter design. The LLC and LCLCL resonant converters are applied as the isolated dc-rectified sine stage with variable frequency modulation (VFM). Therefore, the rectified sine wave generation consists of many dc-dc conversion with different switching frequencies and an efficient dc-rectified sine stage design needs each dc-dc conversion to be with high efficiency. This dissertation will first propose the optimization methods for LLC converter dc-dc conversion. ZVS models are derived to ensure fully ZVS performance for primary side GaN devices. As a large part in loss breakdown, the optimization for transformer is essential. The LLC converter can achieve above 99% efficiency with proposed optimization approach. Moreover, the channel turn-off energy model is presented for a more accurate loss analysis. With all the design and optimization considerations, a MHz LLC converter based isolated inverter is designed and a hybrid modulation method is proposed, which includes full bridge (FB) VFM for output high line region and half bridge (HB) VFM for output low line region. By changing from FB to HB, the output voltage gain is reduced to half to have a wider voltage gain range. However, the total harmonic distortion (THD) of output voltage at light load will be impacted since the voltage gain will be higher with lighter load at the maximum switching frequency. A MHz LCLCL converter based isolated inverter is proposed for a better output voltage THD at light load conditions. The paralleled LC inside the LCLCL resonant tank can naturally create a zero voltage gain point at their resonant frequency, which shows superior performance for rectified sine wave generation. Besides the better THD performance, the LCLCL converter based isolated inverter also features for easier control, better ZVS performance and narrower switching frequency range. Meanwhile, the LCLCL based inverter topology has bi-directional power flow capability as well. With variable frequency modulation for ac-dc, this topology is still a single-stage solution compared to the traditional two-stage solution including PFC + LLC configuration.

Inverters can convert dc voltage to ac voltage and typically people use two-stage approach with isolated dc-dc stage and dc-ac stage. However, this two-stage configuration suffers from more components count, more complex control and tend to have lower efficiency and lower power density. Therefore, the single-stage solution with dc-rectified sine wave stage and a line frequency unfolder becomes appealing. The unfolder circuit is to unfold the rectifier sine wave to an ac sine wave at the output. Since the unfolder is at line frequency and can be considered lossless, the key design is for the dc-rectified sine stage. The resonant converter featured for soft switching seems to be a good candidate. However, the inverter needs soft switching for the whole range and an enough wide voltage gain, which makes the design difficult, especially the target is high efficiency for the overall inverter. This dissertation aims to provide solutions for a high-efficiency, high-frequency resonant converter based single-stage soft-switching isolated inverter design. The LLC and LCLCL resonant converters are applied as the isolated dc-rectified sine stage with variable frequency modulation (VFM). Therefore, the rectified sine wave generation consists of many dc-dc conversion with different switching frequencies and an efficient dc-rectified sine stage design needs each dc-dc conversion to be with high efficiency. The design considerations and optimization methods for the LLC dc-dc conversion are firstly investigated. Based on these approaches, a MHz LLC converter based isolated inverter is designed with proposed hybrid modulation method. To further improve the light load performance, a MHz LCLCL converter based isolated inverter topology is proposed. The paralleled LC inside the LCLCL resonant tank can naturally create a zero voltage gain point which shows superior characteristics for rectified sine wave generation. Moreover, the LCLCL resonant converter based topology has bi-directional capability as well so it can work well for ac voltage to dc voltage conversion.

Abstract:
Distributed generation for consumer applications is a relatively new field and it is difficult to satisfy both cost and performance targets. High expectations coupled with extreme cost cutting to compete with traditional technologies make converter design difficult. As power electronics mature more opportunities arise for entry into this lucrative area. An excellent understanding of converter dynamics is crucial in producing a well performing and cost competitive system. The six-switch single-phase inverter proposed in this thesis is a prime candidate for use in single households and small businesses. Its compact size and compatibility with existing electrical standards make its integration easy. However, little work is available on characterizing the system from a controls point of view. In particular balancing the two outputs with an uneven load is a concern. This thesis uses nodal and loop analysis to formulate a mathematical model of the six-switch single-phase inverter. A non-linear time invariant model is constructed for circuit simulation; details found in real circuits are added. A hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) configuration is used for more accurate simulation. In fact, its use makes for an almost seamless transition between simulation and hardware experimentation. A detailed explanation of the HIL system developed is presented. The system is simulated under various load conditions. Uneven loads and lightly loaded conditions are thoroughly examined. Controllers are verified in simulation and then are tested on real hardware using the HIL system. DC bus disturbance rejection and non-linear loads are also investigated. Acceptable inverter performance is demonstrated without expensive current sensors or high sampling frequency.

This work presents a new methodology for the operation and control of a single-phase current-source Boost Inverter, it is used as base structure for alternative and renewable electric energy sources. The electro/electronics devices normally require eletrical source in AC (alternate current) in different voltage levels and shapes those provided by the alternative and renewable electrical sources. The proposed inverter is an integrated structure able to operate as step-up DC-DC converter and inverter, it presents a reduced number of components, high efficiency when compared with the traditional technique of step-up and inverter for cascade association. The conventional design of current source inverter (CSI) require a large boost inductance, therefore, the small-signal model is similar to continuous-current-mode (CCM) Boost converter, which has a right-half-plane (RHP) zero in its control-to-output transfer function, and this RHP zero causes the well-known non-minimum-phase effects. In this context, a special design with small boost inductance and a multi-loop control is proposed in order to assure stability and very fast dynamics. Furthermore, the inverter presents output voltage with very low total harmonic distortion (THD), reduced number of components and high power density. In addition, this work presents the Boost CSI operation, the proposed control technique, the main simulation and experimental results in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposal.

Abstract: This work presents a new methodology for the operation and control of a single-phase current-source Boost Inverter, it is used as base structure for alternative and renewable electric energy sources. The electro/electronics devices normally require eletrical source in AC (alternate current) in different voltage levels and shapes those provided by the alternative and renewable electrical sources. The proposed inverter is an integrated structure able to operate as step-up DC-DC converter and inverter, it presents a reduced number of components, high efficiency when compared with the traditional technique of step-up and inverter for cascade association. The conventional design of current source inverter (CSI) require a large boost inductance, therefore, the small-signal model is similar to continuous-current-mode (CCM) Boost converter, which has a right-half-plane (RHP) zero in its control-to-output transfer function, and this RHP zero causes the well-known non-minimum-phase effects. In this context, a special design with small boost inductance and a multi-loop control is proposed in order to assure stability and very fast dynamics. Furthermore, the inverter presents output voltage with very low total harmonic distortion (THD), reduced number of components and high power density. In addition, this work presents the Boost CSI operation, the proposed control technique, the main simulation and experimental results in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposal.

Inverters are widely used in various applications. However, traditional inverter configuration basically belongs to a step/down topology. In other words, the maximum peak voltage of the output AC voltage is limited to the input DC voltage. Hence, in case a higher output voltage is needed, it is necessary to either cascade one more stage of step/up CD converter or add an step/up transformer. This will, of course, result in larger size, lower efficiency and higher cost. In view of there, it is the main objection of this thesis to develop a single stage step up/down inverter without using an extra transformer. Basically, the contributions of this thesis may be summarized as follows. First, a novel single stage step up/down inverter without using a transformer is proposed to extend operation range of the output AC voltage. In fact, due to the four-quadrant operation capability of the proposed inverter, the new inverter can also be operated as an AC to DC converter. Second, mathematical model of the proposed inverter is also derived for feedback controller design and implementation. Third, in order to achieve a better performance, a closed loop controller is also presented to satisfy the desired specification. Finally, a hardware prototype of the proposed inverter is constructed to verify the feasibility of the proposed inverter.

Abstract:
This thesis presents a novel Zero Voltage Switching (ZVS) approach in a grid connected single-stage flyback inverter without using any additional auxiliary circuits. The soft-switching of the primary switch is achieved by allowing negative current from the grid-side through bidirectional switches placed on the secondary side of the transformer. Basically, the negative current discharges the MOSFET’s output capacitor thereby allowing turn-on of the primary switch under zero voltage. In order to optimize the amount of reactive current required to achieve ZVS a variable frequency control scheme is implemented over the line cycle. In addition, the bi-directional switches on the secondary side of the transformer have ZVS during the turn-on times. Therefore, the switching losses of the bi-directional switches are negligible. A 250W prototype has been implemented in order to validate the proposed scheme. Experimental results confirm the feasibility and superior performance of the converter compared to the conventional flyback inverter.

The objective of this dissertation is to propose a multi-input single-stage bi-directional grid-connected inverter (MSBG-inverter). The proposed MSBG -inverter is composed of multiple buck-boost type dc-dc converters (BBCs) and a dc-ac unfolder. Because there is only one switch operating at high frequency, single-stage conversion with circuit simplicity and higher efficiency can be achieved. For photovoltaic (PV) system application, the MSBG-inverters can eliminate the shading effect while fulfill the functions of dc-ac conversing and the distributed maximum power point tracking (DMPPT). For battery energy storage system application, the MSBG-inverters can realize individual power-handling capability while fulfill the functions of battery charging and discharging. Moreover, based on the developed equations, the power flow of the BBCs can be controlled without the need of input current sensor. Also, with the interleaved operation between BBCs, the current ripple of the output inductor can be reduced too. Finally, the computer simulations and hardware experimental results are shown to verify the performance of the proposed MSBG-inverter for the PV system and the battery energy storage system.

In this thesis, a grid-connection single-stage PV inverter system is presented, which can deal with solar energy and performs power conditioning. To draw maximum power from PV arrays, double-linear approximation (DLA) algorithm is incorporated to achieve maximum-power-point tracking (MPPT) for PV arrays. The DLA is based on that the trajectories of maximum power point varying with irradiation and with temperature are approximately linear, respectively. With the DLA, the inverter system can determine maximum power point instantaneously and then, calculates current command easily. Thus, complicated calculation and perturbation about an optimal point can be avoided. In this thesis a corresponding circuit to realize DLA is carried out as well, of which configuration is simple. As a result, the proposed circuit is cost-effective and can be embedded into inverter system easily. From simulated and experimental results, the proposed DLA algorithm has been verified and the feasibility of the PV inverter system is also demonstrated.

The Object of this thesis is to design and implement a low power single stage PV inverter using DSP to replace the traditional DC-DC and DC-AC two-stage inverter. In the proposed inverter, the core converter is constructed by using a single phase full bridge which converts low-voltage DC to AC voltage with the frequency and . In order to eliminate the dc component injected to output voltage and make isolation between Photovoltaic cell and output, an isolated transformer is added at the output of full bridge. The transformer is designed by ferrite core owning to the low switching loss, and raises the sinusoidal PWM voltage yielded by full bridge to the grid side. Two switches, which are synchronized with the switching signals of full bridge and one of switches is conducted half period of sinusoidal voltage, are utilized at output path of transformer to prevent the transformer into saturation. Furthermore, a low pass LC filter and a set of switch as freewheeling path for the inductor is added near the output side to mitigate the switching noise. Finally, some experimental results tested in a self-made inverter, 35 input and /200 / output, show the effectiveness of the proposed control strategies.

While fossil fuels exhaustion and greenhouse effects are widely concerned around the world, one of the most important issues toward to these problems is to find alternative energy for long-term solutions. Green energy offering the promise of clean and abundant energy gathered from self-renewing sources such as solar energy, geothermal energy and wind source are broadly developed. Solar cells are unique in that they directly convert the incident solar radiation into electricity. Photovoltaic (PV) power management concepts are essential to extract as much power as possible from the solar energy. PV energy systems are being extensively studied because of its benefits of environmental friendly and renewable characteristics. Unlike oil, gas and coals, solar energy does not emit greenhouse gases, or cause pollutions, and is expected to enhance the feasibility of lowering cost and increasing conversion efficiency. This thesis focuses on the developments of a high performance DSP-based single-stage grid-connected PV inverter system with maximum power point tracking (MPPT). The output voltage and current of the studied PV inverter are sensed to realize the MPPT control. The additional sensing for the PV array voltage and current is unnecessary. A perturbation and observation (P&O) method is implemented and cooperated with a zero-detection phase shift control scheme. The studied grid-connected single-stage PV inverter topology provides the benefits of low cost, simple configuration and good overall efficiency. A laboratory prototype system is built and tested. The experimental results are shown to verify the feasibility of the proposed scheme.

For conventional single-stage Flyback AC module inverter, there is a large amount of power fluctuation of twice the grid frequency, causing high ripple components to appear on the output of the photovoltaic (PV) module. As a result, an electrolytic capacitor with large capacitance has often been used in order to suppress the current ripples thus caused. However, the lifetime issue of the electrolytic capacitor forms a reliability ceiling of the AC module inverter under high temperature environments. To overcome this problem, the thesis proposes a novel single-stage micro-inverter with power decoupling capability for the PV applications. The low-frequency power fluctuation is decoupled via an additional auxiliary circuit that enables employment of high-reliability film capacitors with small capacitance not only for the DC input capacitor of the micro-inverter, but also for the decoupling capacitor used in the decoupling auxiliary circuit. The reliability and lifetime of the inverter can thus be highly increased. The proposed inverter also enables realization of small volume, lightweight, and simple structure with high reliability. The control schemes and effectiveness of the proposed inverter is verified by PSIM simulations and experiments on a 250W laboratory prototype having input voltage of 25-40V and output voltage of 110Vac. Promising results have been obtained with relatively low output current ripples of the PV module due to the power-decoupling circuit. The MPPT efficiency can thus be highly enhanced. Film capacitors can be adopted in the AC module inverter as well to greatly ensure the system reliability.

A single-stage high-power-factor electronic ballast with class E inverter is proposed for driving the fluorescent lamp. The circuit configuration is obtained from the integration of a buck-boost converter for power-factor- correction (PFC) and a class E resonant inverter for ballasting. The integrated ballast circuit requires only one active power switch and simple control. Operating the buck-boost converter in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) at a fixed frequency, the electronic ballast can achieve nearly unity power factor. With pulse-width-modulation (PWM), the electronic ballast can provide an appropriate filament current for preheating, a high voltage for ignition, and then a desired lamp current for steady-state operation. An additional control circuit is included to eliminate the glow current during preheating stage. The operation of the ballast-lamp circuit is analyzed by fundamental approximation. Computer simulations are made and design equations are derived on basis of the power-dependent resistance model of the fluorescent lamp. With carefully designed circuit parameters, the active power switch can be switched on at zero current to reduce the switching losses leading to a higher efficiency. An experimental circuit designed for a PL-27W compact fluorescent lamp is built and tested to verify the computer simulations and analytical predictions. Experimental results show that satisfactory performances can be obtained on the proposed electronic ballast.

The main purpose of this thesis is to propose a three phase Multi-input Single-stage Grid-tied inverter (MSG-inverter) which can be used in distributed photovoltaic power generation systems (PVPGS). The proposed inverter is composed of micro dc-dc buck-boost converters (BBCs) and a dc-ac unfolder. Each micro BBC is connected to a single photovoltaic module (PV) in a PVPGS. The micro BBCs are connected to the central dc-ac unfolder through a dc bus. The micro BBCs are operating in discontinuous conduction mode (DCM). The pulsating dc current reduces stress and losses in the dc bus. Each micro BBC is equipped with a simple maximum power point tracker (MPPT) designed specifically to achieve maximum energy transfer. Each micro BBC is equipped with an interleaving power control scheme which is controlled using a signal from a phase lock loop (PLL). The architecture and control scheme of the proposed three phase MSG-inverter achieves a distributed MPPT (DMPPT) control and distributed power control of the PV array in distributed PVPGS. Finally some computer simulations results are presented to verify the performance of the proposed MSG-inverter.

This thesis aims to design and implement a single-stage single-switch power factor correction circuit with 90~264V universal AC voltage input and 24V DC output for low-power adapter applications. A quasi-resonant isolated inverse SEPIC converter is used to regulate the output voltage and achieve high input power factor simultaneously by using a simple single-stage circuit topology. The power switch is turned on with valley-switching control and the output diode is turned off with naturally zero-current-switching. The switching losses can be reduced to increase the conversion efficiency. Compared with the conventional single-stage Flyback converter, the proposed circuit can effectively reduce the output voltage ripple to less than 1%. A 20W laboratory prototype is designed and implemented to verify the proposed single-stage converter.

This thesis aims to study and implement high-efficiency, high-power factor (PF), single-stage light emitter diode (LED) driver. Conventionally, electrolytic capacitors (EC) are necessary at the output of a LED driver to reduce output ripple and maintain overall system performance. However, the use of ECs shortens the lifespan of LED drivers. This thesis tests and compares the circuit performance of LED drivers with EC, with film capacitor and without output capacitor. According to experimental verifications, the studied single-stage LED driver offers the advantages of high-efficiency, high-power factor and low circuit cost.
