In this paper multi-input Cuk- derived buck-boost inverter is presented based on Model Predictive Control (MPC). The control technique applied to multi- input because of the several features such as reduction passive elements compared with two-stage topologies and family impedance inverters Z-source Inverter (ZSI), Quazi Source Inverter(QSI), T-Source (TSI), Y-Source (YSI) .in addition , it sui...

Renewable energy sources can be used for electric power generation to supply specific devices in distributed systems such as smart grids. Hydrogen fuel cells have proven to be an effective solution to produce electrical energy with fairly good efficiency and minimum environmental pollution. A single-stage solution to interconnect a fuel cell with a low-voltage distribution system is proposed in...

Multilevel inverters with space vector pulse width modulation strategy are gained importance in high power high performance industrial drive applications.This paper presents a simplified space vector PWM method for a two-level and three level inverter The threelevel inverter has a large number of switching states as compared to two level inverter. In the proposed scheme, three-level space vecto...

In the field of photovoltaic (PV) plants and energy conversion from renewable sources, a large part of the technical literature is more devoted to practical aspects (new solar cells, electrically driven PV panels, safety, reduction of parasitic currents, etc.) than to theoretical investigations. Despite this tendency, this paper presents a mathematical analysis of a medium scale photovoltaic po...

Smart distribution grids should efficiently integrate stochastic renewable resources while effecting voltage regulation. The design of energy management schemes is challenging, one of the reasons being that energy management is a multistage problem where decisions are not all made at the same timescale and must account for the variability during real-time operation. The joint dispatch of slowan...

This article presents a single-stage five-level boost inverter (5L-SBI) topology with reduced power components. The proposed falls under the self-balanced switch-capacitors (SCs) type and combines both DC/DC converter switched-capacitor cell. advantages of topologies include following: number switch counts is reduced, maximum voltage gain two times higher than input voltage, capacitor’s chargin...

The paper describes an investigation of fault tolerant control strategies for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) driven by a fault-tolerant inverter. The inverter is a topology-modified inverter with fault-tolerant capability, which can be configured as the standard 3-phase 6-switch inverter and reconfigured as 3-phase 4-switch or 2-phase 4switch inverter under the fault condition. By an...

The standard solution for the traction system in battery powered electric vehicles (EVs) is a two-level (2L) inverter feeding a three-phase motor. A simple and effective way to achieve a three-level (3L) inverter in battery-supplied electric vehicles consists of using two standard three-phase 2L inverters with the open-end winding connection of standard three-phase ac motors. The 3L inverter so...
