A grid-connected 3-level NPC inverter is a power conversion device that connects renewable energy generators, such as photovoltaic or wind turbines to the grid. Although many studies have focused on this inverter, commercializing it requires strictly satisfying various safety and power quality-related standards. Among many standards, leakage current and grid current total harmonic distortion(THD) can be affected by external factors such as installation environment, aging, and grid conditions. Hence, inverter operations that can satisfy these standards need to be explored. In this study a 3-level NPC inverter operation algorithm using the Phase Opposition Disposition-PWM method that can effectively reduce leakage current and switching frequency adjustment to reduce THD effectively has been proposed.

본 논문에서는 왜곡율이 큰 광각 렌즈가 부착된 CCD 카메라를 위한 왜곡 영상의 간단한 자동 보정 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법으로 보정 목표물(Calibration Target)인 왜곡 그리드(Grid) 영상과 왜곡되지 않은 표준 그리드 영상에서 매칭되는 교차점들 사이의 관계를 3차 와핑(Warping) 식으로 모델링하고, 모델링한 식으로부터 보정 계수를 추출한다. 실험은 방사 왜곡이 심한 광각 CCD 컬러 카메라로부터 얻어진 투시가 강하게 들어있는 입력 영상을 가지고 수행하였다. 제안한 방법은 왜곡 영상의 보정율이 평균 영상오차와 최대 영상오차 영역에 대하여 모두 95 퍼센트 이상을 유지하므로 보정의 정확도가 기존 방법 보다 우수하며, 렌즈의 종류나 왜곡의 형태에 관계없이 포괄적으로 적용이 가능한 것으로 나타났다.

This paper proposes a grid-connected inverter using the negative conductance of PV power system, which has four IGBTs and simple controller. Most of modern electric loads generate the current harmonics and the line voltage distortion. The new solar-to-ac converter(STAC) provides by emulating a negative conductance load to the line voltage, so the current harmonics from STAC is canceled the effect of the harmonics from other loads. As a result, the line voltage distortion is decreased. The proposed system have low cost, small size, and light weight compared to conventional photovoltaic converter

자동차를 위한 전방향(omni-directional) 감시 시스템, 로봇의 시각 역할 등 다양한 비전 시스템에서 카메라가 장착되어 사용되고 있다. AVM(Around View Monitoring) 시스템에서 그리드 패턴의 코너를 검출하기 위해서는 광각 카메라에서 획득한 비선형적인 방사 왜곡을 가진 영상의 왜곡 보정 작업을 수행한 후 왜곡이 보정된 영상 내부의 그리드 패턴 각 코너들을 자동으로 검출하여야 한다. 기존 AVM 시스템에 사용되는 직선과 코너 검출 방법에는 Sub-Pixel, 허프 변환 등이 있으나, Sub-Pixel 방법은 자동검출이 어렵고, 허프변환은 정확도에 문제가 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 왜곡 보정 영상을 입력 영상으로 받아 그리드 패턴의 코너를 자동으로 정확하게 검출하는 방법을 설계하고 구현하여 성능을 평가함으로써 AVM 시스템에서 코너를 검출하는 부분에 적용시킬 수 있음을 보였다.

Input filters are very important to matrix converters (MCs). They are used to improve grid side current waveform quality and to reduce the input voltage distortion supplied to the grid side. Due to the effects of the input filter and the output power, the grid side power factor (PF) is not at unity when the input power factor angle is zero. In this paper, the displacement angle between the grid side phase current and the phase voltage affected by the input filter parameters and output power is analyzed. Based on this, a new grid side PF unity compensation method implemented in the indirect space vector pulse width modulation (ISVPWM) method is presented, which has a larger compensation angle than the traditional compensation method, showing a higher grid side PF at unity in a wide output power range. Simulation and experimental results verify that the analysis of the displacement angle between the grid side phase current and the phase voltage affected by the input filter and output power is right and that the proposed compensation method has a better grid side PF at unity.

Grid-interactive power converters are normally synchronized with the grid using phase-locked loops (PLLs). The performance of the PLLs is affected by the non-ideal conditions in the sensed grid voltage such as harmonics, frequency deviations and the dc offsets in single-phase systems. In this paper, a single-phase PLL is presented to mitigate the effects of these non-idealities. This PLL is based on the popular second order generalized integrator (SOGI) structure. The SOGI structure is modified to eliminate the effects of input dc offsets. The resulting SOGI structure has a high-pass filtering property. Hence, this PLL is termed as a high-pass generalized integrator based PLL (HGI-PLL). It has fixed parameters which reduces the implementation complexity and aids in the implementation in low-end digital controllers. The HGI-PLL is shown to have the lowest resource utilization among the SOGI based PLLs with dc cancelling capability. Systematic design methods are evolved leading to a design that limits the unit vector THD to within 1% for given non-ideal input conditions in terms of frequency deviation and harmonic distortion. The proposed designs achieve the fastest transient response. The performance of this PLL has been verified experimentally. The results agree with the theoretical prediction.

Photovoltaic energy conversion becomes main focus of many researches due to its promising potential as source for future electricity and has many advantages than the other alternative energy sources like wind, solar, ocean, biomass, geothermal etc. In Photovoltaic power generation multilevel inverters play a vital role in power conversion. The three different topologies, diode-clamped (neutral-point clamped) inverter, capacitor-clamped (flying capacitor) inverter and cascaded h-bridge multilevel inverter are widely used in these multilevel inverters. Among the three topologies, cascaded h-bridge multilevel inverter is more suitable for photovoltaic applications since each pv array can act as a separate dc source for each h-bridge module. This paper presents a single phase Cascaded H-bridge five level inverter for grid-connected photovoltaic application using sinusoidal pulse width modulation technique. This inverter output voltage waveform reduces the harmonics in the generated current and the filtering effort at the input. The control strategy allows the independent control of each dc-link voltages and tracks the maximum power point of PV strings. This topology can inject to the grid sinusoidal input currents with unity power factor and achieves low harmonic distortion. A PID control algorithm is implemented in Arm Processor LPC2148. The validity of the proposed inverter is verified through simulation and is implemented in a single phase 100W prototype. The results of hardware are compared with simulation results. The proposed system offers improved performance over conventional three level inverter in terms of THD.

This paper proposes a dc error compensation algorithm using dq-synchronous coordinate transform digital phase-locked-loop in single-phase grid-connected converters. The dc errors are caused by analog to digital conversion and grid voltage during measurement. If the dc offset error is included in the phase-locked-loop system, it can cause distortion in the grid angle estimation with phase-locked-loop. Accordingly, recent study has dealt with the integral technique using the synchronous reference frame phase-locked-loop method. However, dynamic response is slow because it requires to monitor one period of grid voltage. In this paper, the dc offset error compensation algorithm of the improved response characteristic is proposed by using the synchronous reference frame phase-locked-loop. The simulation and the experimental results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed dc offset error compensation algorithm.
