Power quality (PQ) problems for renewable energy system (RES) is major challenge using these systems. Amplitude, frequency, and waveform important PQ parameters especially standalone or isolated In this paper we propose RES with wind turbine (WT) permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) to feed different loads (liner, non-liner) through AC-DC-AC converter.

A new ac/ac power converter topology, in which all the switches operate in a resonant fashion to reduce switching losses, is proposed. The topology enables conduction-period control of individual current pulses, whereby pulse-width modulation (PWM) could be achieved to a fair degree of accuracy with the associated controller. The scheme implements current peak (resonant) limiting by a simple di...

Switched Boost Inverter (SBI) is a single stage DC to AC power converter and it is derived from the Z source inverter employs an LC impedance network in between the main inverter bridge and the power source. This SBI converter can possible to supply both DC and AC loads simultaneously from a single dc input source. Here, reducing the inverter switching stress. Also, this converter provides to s...

This paper is concerned with the design and simulation of a pulse width modulation (PWM) rectifier for three-phase Permanent Magnetic motor drive. Based on the mathematical model of PWM rectifier, the dual-close-loop engineering design with decoupled feed-forward control is applied in the 3-phase voltage source rectifier. The objective to be reached is to realize unity power factor at the input...

A robust controller for a single-phase Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM) inverter is designed. The single-phase PWM inverter generates an AC sinusoidal output from a DC link voltage. Robustness of the output waveform against load variations and minimum Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) are the main goals in this design. The importance of this design methodology results from the changes in the inverter...

This paper presents a unique PWM switching pattern and a novel power factor control scheme for high power GTO ac/dc converters. This switching pattern has a switching frequency of 360Hz, which is the lowest possible frequency to achieve 5th and 7th harmonic elimination and an adjustable dc output current simultaneously. Using both feedback and feedforward control techniques, the proposed power ...

The researches on direct AC-AC convertors have been an important field. The DC-modulated method, which was used in DC-DC convertors before, is used in AC-AC convertors to realize a direct AC-AC converting now. The method as regulating the duty of switch periods can control the circuit to output an acceptable sinusoid voltage wave. But this method can always bring forth a small phase shift betwe...
