“…At present situation required an uninterrupted power for the air conditioning and medical equipments etc., are increased the demand of home power supply system due to which have to highly concentrate on the reliability of grid supplied power [2]. In recent years, Distributed Generation (DG) have more attention because of the ability to provide peak power, demand reduction, backup power, improved power quality and ancillary services of power grid [3]- [5].…”

“…There are two strategies for the bidirectional ac-dc converter design: one is that the bidirectional converter separates from the driving system. The other one is to combine the electric motor like filter and the same converter for charging mode and traction mode [1]- [9]. Furthermore, the bidirectional dc/dc converter with a proper charging/discharging profile is required to transfer energy between the battery pack and the electric traction system in order to reduce the size and weight of the battery pack [5], [8].…”

The plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are specialized hybrid electric vehicles that have the potential to obtain enough energy for average daily commuting from batteries. The PHEV battery would be recharged from the power grid at home or at work and would thus allow for a reduction in the overall fuel consumption. This paper proposes an integrated power electronics interface for PHEVs, which consists of a novel Eight-Switch Inverter (ESI) and an interleaved DC/DC converter, in order to reduce the cost, the mass and the size of the power electronics unit (PEU) with high performance at any operating mode. In the proposed configuration, a novel Eight-Switch Inverter (ESI) is able to function as a bidirectional single-phase AC/DC battery charger/ vehicle to grid (V2G) and to transfer electrical energy between the DC-link (connected to the battery) and the electric traction system as DC/AC inverter. In addition, a bidirectional-interleaved DC/DC converter with dual-loop controller is proposed for interfacing the ESI to a low-voltage battery pack in order to minimize the ripple of the battery current and to improve the efficiency of the DC system with lower inductor size. To validate the performance of the proposed configuration, the indirect field-oriented control (IFOC) based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) is proposed to optimize the efficiency of the AC drive system in PHEVs. The maximum efficiency of the motor is obtained by the evaluation of optimal rotor flux at any operating point, where the PSO is applied to evaluate the optimal flux. Moreover, an improved AC/DC controller based Proportional-Resonant Control (PRC) is proposed in order to reduce the THD of the input current in charger/V2G modes. The proposed configuration is analyzed and its performance is validated using simulated results obtained in MATLAB/ SIMULINK. Furthermore, it is experimentally validated with results obtained from the prototypes that have been developed and built in the laboratory based on TMS320F2808 DSP.
