    A novel technique for photovoltaic maximum power pointtracking system
    (2005) Shantharama Rai, C.; Udaya Kumar, R.Y.; Naik, R.L.
    Maximum power point tracking (MPPT),used in photovoltaic(PV) systems to maximize the photovoltaic array output power, irrespective of the temperature and irradiation conditions and of the load characteristics. In this paper a new MPPT system has been proposed consists of newly developed flyback type converter of a flyback transformer for high frequency linkage and synchronous switches for the connection to the AC utility grid and a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller without a current sensor. In this project the generated power of the PV array can be calculated by the equation using the voltage of PV array. The proposed PV power system which consists of two or more inverters, can get large power than the conventional one, when the PV array is partially shaded by some constructions.

    Regulating frequency of supply voltage using matrix converter and comparative evaluation with double end converter
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Kundu, A.; Vittal, K.P.
    This paper attempts to present the devising of the Matrix converter and an AC-DC-AC converter along with their working principle and control mechanisms. Both of these converters are AC-AC converters and are primarily used in cases where frequency of the out-put AC signal needs to be regulated with respect to the input. The principle of superposition is used by the matrix converter and is deployed to provide a bidirectional power flow. This also aims to eliminate the need for large DC link capacitors. Subsequently, the control algorithm is more complex. An AC-DC-AC converter on the other hand engages switched mode power conversion to first convert the input AC power to DC and then convert it back to AC using a PWM inverter. We also aim at understanding the applications of both the converters with respect to their performance under various conditions. © 2016 IEEE.

    Architectural framework of on-board integrator: An interface for grid connected EV
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2017) Hampannavar, S.; Likassa, K.; Ayenew, E.; Sandeep, N.; Yaragatti, U.R.
    Vehicle to Grid (V2G) is the concept of connecting a group of electric vehicles (EV) to the grid for power transaction. EVs can be connected to the grid through the home interface or through the chargers available at charging stations. In this paper, a single phase on-board charger with low complexity control scheme is proposed for EV power transaction. The power flow from and to the grid is processed using two stage cascaded converters consisting of a bidirectional DC-DC and DC-AC converters. The LCL filter is used as an interface between DC-AC converter and the grid to attenuate the grid current harmonics. A proportional resonant (PR) controller is employed for the control of grid current and to enable the unity power factor operation of the DC-AC converter. The setbacks associated with the conventional proportional-integral (PI) controller for single phase system is elevated by employing PR controller. Filter design guidelines and the control strategy developed for the proposed system is numerically simulated and verified with extensive simulation carried using MATLAB/SIMULINK. The results demonstrating the feasibility and viability of the proposed system are presented. © 2017 IEEE.

    Design of a New Single-Phase 15-Level Inverter with Minimized Components
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2023) Nageswar Rao, B.N.; Yellasiri, Y.; Shiva Naik, B.S.; Aditya, K.; Karunakaran, E.; Kumar, M.V.
    Multilevel inverters (MLI) provide a number of challenges, the most significant of which is the requirement for a high number of power semiconductors and separate dc supplies to assimilate renewable energy into a grid successfully. Because of this, reducing the number of components used in these kinds of inverters is quite important. Because transformer-based multilevel inverters (TBMIs) have become more commonplace, the use of many dc supplies in the cascaded inverter is no longer necessary for the device to function. Based on the outcomes of this study, a new transformer-based MLI with fifteen levels (15L) and eight switches can be built with only one dc source required. The suggested MLI consists of three isolated transformers. The suggested MLI structure has many unique benefits, including the use of fewer switching components and the availability of self-galvanic isolation. The MATLAB simulation results are carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the suggested TBMLI. In addition, a comparison of the suggested structure to other recent configurations is presented. © 2023 IEEE.

    Autonomous Microgrid Using New Perspective on Droop Control in AC Microgrid
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024) Siddaraj, U.; Yaragatti, U.R.; Nagendrappa, H.
    Providing higher quality power to consumers through the existent microgrid is now a problem for the renewable energy source. Designing a droop controller for the microgrid is a necessity to construct a dependable and effective microgrid. In this paper, a P–F/Q–V droop method is used to connect several VSIs in parallel. Their parallels and differences are amply discussed in this study. A frequency droop control method and a virtual impedance approach are combined in the suggested method, which is coupled to two distributed generation (DG) local controllers and has each unit having a droop control and a voltage-current controller. An islanded system's load flexibility and microgrid reliability can both be enhanced by adding this controller. The microgrid was subjected to this idea without any real-time communication. Simulink/MATLAB was used to simulate this. The results obtained show that the microgrid (MG) model is effective in autonomous operation. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd 2024.
