“…In contrast all-EV traction train configuration proposed in literature are simpler than HEV and they can use for example battery (B), fuel cell (FC), photovoltaic (PV) as their main energy generation/energy storage unit. Additionally several arrays of B, FC and PV linked with supercapacitors (SC) in all-EV has been reported , (Pay & Baghzouz, 2003), (Schofield, 2005), (Solero et al, 2005), (Intellicon, 2005).

“…Figure 5 shows a converter with the fuel cell, storage and load linked by a DC bus. This is the simplest structure and a typical application can be found in fuel cell powered hybrid vehicles where high-voltage fuel cells and storage (a few hundred volts) are used [10]. Since all the switching cells are directly connected in parallel, a standard switch module is applicable (e.g.…”

“…The need for a multiport DC-DC converter is attracting research interest. The multi-input topologies for combining diverse sources found in the literature are either non-isolated direct link [8][9][10][11] or magnetic coupling [12][13][14]. The methods to combine multiple sources presented in these papers include putting sources in series [8], paralleling sources via a DC bus [9], using flux additivity by a multi-winding transformer [12], or the time-sharing concept [14].…”

Multiport DC-DC converters are of potential interest in applications such as generation systems utilising multiple sustainable energy sources. A family of multiport bidirectional DC-DC converters derived from a general topology is presented. The topology shows a combination of DC-link and magnetic coupling. This structure makes use of both methods to interconnect multiple sources without the penalty of extra conversion or additional switches. The resulting converters have the advantage of being simple in topology and have a minimum number of power devices. The proposed general topology and basic cells show several possibilities to construct a multiport converter for particular applications and provide a solution to integrate diverse sources owing to their flexibility in structure. The system features a minimal number of conversion steps, low cost and compact packaging. In addition, the control and power management of the converter by a single digital processor is possible. The centralised control eliminates complicated communication structures that would be necessary in the conventional structure based on separate conversion stages. A control strategy based on classical control theory is proposed, showing a multiple PIDloop structure. The general topology and a set of three-port embodiments are detailed.

“…Such a converter becomes more attractive if it can operate in both dc-dc and dcac modes, without any changes in the converter structure. This can be proposed in [5]- [6] so multi-input converter is able to directly step up the low-level input dc voltages into a high-level output dc/ac voltage and does not need any output filter, while it only uses the minimum number of power switches. The load voltage is differentially obtained from the converter two output voltage components.…”

This paper proposes a new extendable single stage multi-input dc-dc/ac boost converter. This proposed structure comprises two current bidirectional ports in the converter central part to interface battery and load in order to provide reliability in the supply. This proposed topology consists of two set of parallel boost converters, which are actively controlled to produce two independent output voltage components. Choosing two pure dc or two dc biased sinusoidal values as the converter reference voltages, situations of the converter operating in two dc-dc and dc-ac modes are provided. The proposed converter utilizes minimum number of power switches and is able to step up the low-level input dc voltages into a high-level output dc or ac voltage with-out needing any output filter arrangement. In order obtained desired output voltage components for the converter by the resulting in autonomously charging and discharging of the battery to balance the power flow. Keywords: boost converter, filters, I. INTRODUCTIONEnergy sources like wind turbines and photovoltaic (PV) systems are intermittent and unpredictable; therefore, they are not highly reliable. In order to address this issue, renewable resources are either combined with each other or fuel cells (FCs) and energy storage systems (ESSs). Nowadays, the concept of multiple-input converters (MICs) has been proposed to accommodate several renewable energy resources. These converters provide simple circuit topologies, centralized control, high reliability, low manufacturing cost, and size. The systematic approaches of generating and synthesizing MICs have been introduced. In general, all various MICs are responsible to accept dc voltage sources at their input ports, while from the output point of view they can be broken into two categories: dc-dc MICs and dc-ac MICs. For the first category, in three multi-input converters have been proposed in [1]-[2] based on the structure of the dc boost converter. The three-input dc-dc boost converter proposed by the author's benefits from simple unified structure and minimum numbers of power switches. In this paper, a new extendable single-stage multi-input boost converter is proposed in [2]-[4] which can operate in both dc-dc and dc-ac modes. The proposed converter integrates two bidirectional ports for battery storage and output load and several unidirectional ports for different input dc sources. Although dc-ac MICs gain several advantages, all of them utilize at least two conversion stages and need an output filter to support ac loads. Accordingly, for all MICs, multiple power conversion stages may result in increasing the count of devices, system power losses, size, weight, and cost of hybrid systems. In this regard, single-stage topologies, which integrate performance of each stage of multistage power converters, are becoming more attractive. Although they may cause control complexity, they offer higher efficiency and reliability, and lower cost and size. , A single stage single-input zsource inverter with coupled i...
