The involvement of large-scale grid-tied photovoltaic (PV) systems is growing speedily, and enormous effort is given to design the robust control mechanism of PV systems to augment the performance of the PV system in both transient and steady-state states. The terminal voltage may fluctuate at steady-state conditions due to the alternating nature of solar irradiance and affect the low voltage ride through (LVRT) aptitude at the transient period. Therefore, in this paper, a cascaded grid-side AC-DC inverter control strategy is developed by modifying the inverter input signal to control the terminal voltage. The proposed dead-band-based inverter controller maintains the terminal voltage at rated value during steady-state and augments LVRT aptitude at transient conditions by injecting an efficient quantity of reactive power. The overall scenario, including PV system, conventional power plant, and load, has been designed and examined using the "PSCAD/EMTDC" platform. The traditional control system is taken into comparison with the proposed control system to verify the effectiveness of this innovative control technique.
