This paper proposes an improved power sharing control scheme to achieve the accurate power sharing control and offer an improved PCC voltage regulation capability in islanding microgrid. An enhanced virtual impedance design is assumed in the conventional droop control scheme to manage distributed generation (DG) units to export the accurate reactive power in proportion to their rating. A point of common coupling (PCC) voltage restoration control is implemented to eliminate the PCC voltage deviation produced by the droop control effect and voltage drop effect on the impedance. This control scheme of each individual DG unit was designed to only use the locally measured feedback variables of inverter. It can realize accurate reactive power sharing and guarantee the PCC voltage quality. Matlab simulations are presented to show the effectiveness of proposed control performance in islanding microgrid.

A LC filter can be added to the input of the conventional buck converter to make the converter operate in discontinuous capacitor voltage mode. In this mode, the converter obtains the inherent power factor correction. Besides, both the input and output current will be continuous. This makes it possible for the converter operating at a high power level range. The input current will follow the input voltage automatically by a simple constant duty cycle control. This paper presents a detailed operation analysis of the converter operating in discontinuous capacitor voltage mode. And a 36V/100W prototype was built to verify the theoretical results.

A novel high step-up DC-DC converter is proposed in this paper. In this paper, interleaved inductors are utilized to combine with switched capacitors to generate a simple circuit structure. This topology aims to reduce current stress in low-voltage side further, decrease voltage stress in high-voltage side, and to achieve output voltage regulation with a wide range input. The operating principles and steady-state analyses of 4-phase proposed converter are discussed. Finally, a 200W prototype with 24V input voltage is implemented to verify the performance.

This paper proposes a novel high gain DC-DC converter, the core structure of the circuit is a bridge which is composed of two power switches and two equivalent voltage sources. The two equivalent voltage sources are charged in parallel during the two switches turn on and are discharged in series during the two switches turn off, which makes the converter produce high output voltage to realize high voltage gain without extremely large duty cycle. In addition, the equivalent source is implemented by using coupled inductor voltage multiplier technique, which can further improve voltage gain and reduce switch voltage stress. The simulation and experimental results verify the correctness of the converter derivation and analysis.

Conventional model predictive current control (M-PCC) uses the discrete-time system model to select the best voltage vector by minimizing a cost function, which is related to the current errors. However, due to the limited number of voltage vectors in two-level converters, the sampling frequency has to be high to achieve satisfactory performance. To improve the steady state performance of conventional single-vector-based MPCC, this paper proposes an improved MPCC with optimal duty cycle for a three-phase ac/dc converter. The proposed method allocates only a fraction of control period to the voltage vector selected from conventional MPCC and the rest of time for a zero vector. The duration of the selected voltage vector is obtained based on the principle of current error minimization. Both simulation and experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

In this paper, a novel power electronic transformer (PET) structure for dc power distribution system is proposed. The proposed converter can achieve very high voltage conversion ratio with high frequency isolation and bidirectional energy flow, thus it can be used as the interface equipment of high voltage and low voltage dc power grid. Different from the conventional structure, only one high frequency transformer is used in the proposed structure, reducing the fabricating cost. Based on the proposed topology, phase shift control method is introduced to output the required power and balance the submodule voltage. A 100kW simulation model is built up in Simulink/MATLAB. The simulation results verify the proposed converter and control method.
