An Optimal PWM Technique for Dual-Output Nine-Switch Boost Inverters with Minimum Passive Component Count
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
Nine-Switch inverter (NSI) has been recently introduced for independent control of dual ac motors. Although this topology reduces the number of active switches by 25% compared to conventional inverters, it has a main ...
Current stress and switching loss evaluation of a unified expandable power converter used for grid-integration of renewable energy sources
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc
, 2021 , Article)
Due to the intermittent nature of the renewable energy systems (RESs), more specifically, solar panels and wind turbines, their sole use does not lead to a smooth and reliable power. To overcome this issue, the concurrent ...
A Family of Discontinuous PWM Strategies for Quasi Z-Source Nine-Switch Inverters
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2021 , Article)
This paper proposes a new family of discontinuous PWM strategies to control the quasi-Z-source nine-switch inverters (qZS-NSI). The presented strategies provide buck and boost inversion capabilities, and suitable for ...
Modular multilevel DC-DC converter with arm interchange concept

, 2015 , Article)
Pulsed electric field (PEF) can be used effectively in water treatment applications by passing infected water through two electrodes excited from a high voltage pulsed power supply which guarantees killing the harmful ...
Fundamental output voltage enhancement of half-bridge voltage source inverter with low DC-link capacitance
(
Korean Institute of Power Electronics
, 2018 , Article)
Conventionally, in order to reduce the ac components of the dc-link capacitors of the two-level Half-Bridge Voltage Source Inverter (HB-VSI), high dc-link capacitances are required. This necessitates the employment of ...
Harmonic rejection in current source inverter-based distributed generation with grid voltage distortion using multi-synchronous reference frame
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2014 , Article)
The growing penetration of renewable energy resources and distributed generation (DG) has raised significant interest in power quality issues. Achieving low total harmonic distortion of exported current using low switching ...
Fault current contribution scenarios for grid-connected voltage source inverter-based distributed generation with an LCL filter
(
Elsevier
, 2013 , Article)
Inverter-based distributed generation (IBDG) is characterized by its negligible fault current contribution compared with synchronous generators due to its inherent non-overload capabilities. Thus, IBDG hardly affects the ...
High-performance adaptive Perturb and observe MPPT technique for photovoltaic-based microgrids
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Article)
Solar photovoltaic (PV) energy has witnessed double-digit growth in the past decade. The penetration of PV systems as distributed generators in low-voltage grids has also seen significant attention. In addition, the need ...
Capacitor voltage balancing using redundant states of space vector modulation for five-level diode clamped inverters
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Article)
A redundancy balancing technique for the five-level diode-clamped inverter is presented, which balances the four dc-link capacitor voltages at high modulation index and high power factor. The technique is based on dividing ...
