Design of a novel control hysteresis algorithm for photovoltaic systems for harmonic compensation

Abstract

Solar photovoltaic (PV) system design and integration with an existing AC grid is growing very fast in recent years and used by many of them as they are pollution-free, structure is limited and maintenance free. From the factors considering, the performance of PV system depends upon the inverter output voltage tested for linear, non-linear, with harmonic, and without harmonic loads. Generated due to the nonlinear loads. Better inverter control techniques are developed to maintain grid power quality. This article discusses the analysis and comparison of pulse width modulation (PWM) converters with unique and state of the art nonlinear control schemes and various modulation approaches. The primary objective of this research is controlling an active filtering hysteresis PWM converter with no sensors. A simple structure with hysteresis current control method total harmonic distortion (THD) is lower when compared with the sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) method. The said claims are supported by employing computer simulations using MATLAB/Simulink and different control approaches, such as proportional plus integral and artificial neural network controllers.
