“…Early MISO converters were constructed by stacking multiple SISO converters with their output capacitors connected in series and both converters sharing a lone output. Such an example was built by the University of Rome in 1996 with two inputs and a shared output [12]. This design, while novel for its time, struggles to regulate its output voltage effectively whenever one of the two input sources falls out of operation, which is due to large input voltage variation [13].…”

iv As power systems throughout the world continue to utilize DC infrastructure within distributed generation solutions and microgrid designs, an effective DC-DC interfacing power electronic device must be developed for managing power flow and power quality levels between a system's increasingly diversified array of sources and loads. DC-DC power electronic interfaces are continuing to gain increased attention throughout many distribution applications, including the information and communication technology (ICT), electric vehicle, and renewable generation industries.The research effort described herein explores the use of a multi-port DC-DC modular multilevel converter interfacing a dual-input connection of a 380 VDC system and a 42.9 VDC/ 40.7 A photovoltaic panel with a 96 VDC output resistive load. Ultracapacitors are used to power-buffer the input signal and in this application, the inherently intermittent solar panel output. This technology represents the merits of utilizing a singular interfacing device to consolidate the flows between joint generation and load, while maintaining stable output power using a modular energy storage solution.This work details the operation and control of the DC-DC converter and its moduleinterfaced power buffering solution, as well as provide design methodologies for the system described.

“…Generally, PV power and wind power are complementary since sunny days are usually calm and strong winds are often occurred at cloudy days or at night time. Hence, the hybrid PV/wind power system therefore has higher reliability to deliver continuous power than either individual source [4], [5].But the size and components are made the system to complex and high cost.…”

“…In the recent decade, PV is getting more attractive because it has no noise, no installation area limitation and no additional maintenance cost [1]. In order to combine several input resources, series-connected PV module string [2] is conventionally used. However PV string has the drawback of power limit due to a limit number of series connections in order to increase the nominal power [1].…”

Interleaving switching techniques are well known and widely used for minimizing the output current ripples of one input source with several paralleled buck converters. For the case to minimize the output current ripples of different paralleled sources working with different dutycycles has never been taken into account. This paper proposes a new switching technique to minimize the output current ripples of multiple input sources paralleled with buck converters. The proposed switching technique is based on the peak-ripple cancellation with novel phase shift determination algorithm. The feasibility and the performance of the proposed switching technique are verified by simulation results and hardware implementation. The proposed switching technique can be used to harvest energy from PV. MPPT algorithm is also tested for the proposed technique, which would be used for integrating renewables into the smart grid.Index Terms--current ripple cancellation, multiple input, buck converters, MPPT, PV.
