This paper proposes a ST(Switched Trans) quasi Z-source inverter using a Switched Trans Cell combing the characteristics of a Switched Inductor Cell and Trans. A DC link inductor of the conventional quasi Z-source inverter is alternated with Switched Trans Cell of the proposed ST quasi Z-source inverter. Trans Cell of the proposed method consists of one Trans and two diodes, and the proposed method has higher and more various boost function than the conventional quasi Z-source inverter by simply changing the turns ratio of primary and secondary of the Trans. The validity of the proposed ST Z-source inverter was confirmed by PSIM simulation and a DSP based experiment under the input voltage 48V and output phase voltage 30V. As a result, when compared with the traditional quasi Z-source inverter, the proposed method has the advantage of the low voltage stress under the same output voltage condition of the voltage.

본 연구에서는 종전의 Quasi Z-source inverter의 장점을 그대로 가지고 있으면서 동일한 동작 조건에서 낮은 스트레스를 보이는 Switched Trans-inductor Z-source inverter를 제안하였다. 제안된 방식은 동일한 조건에서 낮은 전압 스트레스와 전류 스트레스를 가지고 동작 가능하였으며, 따라서 낮은 용량의 수동소자와 능동소자로도 Z-source inverter 구현이 가능하였다.

This paper proposes the switched trans Z-source inverter(STZSI) which combined the characteristics of the trans Z-source inverter(TZSI) and the switched inductor Z-source inverter(SLZSI). The proposed STZSI has the same performance compared with the SLZSI which is improved the voltage boost performance of the conventional typical X-shaped ZSI, and it has advantage that circuit structure of Z-impedance network is more simple. And, in order to step up the voltage boost factor under the condition of the same duty ratio, unlike the SLZSI adding the inductors and diodes, the proposed method is dune by changing the turn ratio of trans primary winding of Z-impedance network. To confirm the validity of the proposed method, PSIM simulation and a DSP(TMS320F28335) based experiment were performed using trans with turn ratio 1 and 2 under the condition of the input DC voltage VI=50V, duty ratio D=0.1 and D=0.15. As a result, under the same input/ouput condition, the inverter arm voltage stress of the proposed method is reduced to about 15%-22% as compared with typical X-shaped ZSI, and the elements in Z-impedance network of the proposed method is reduced as compared with the SLZSI.

When typical Z-source DC/AC inverter(ZSI) is operated in high voltage gain area, because of its high duty ratio, voltage and current stress in Z-network of typical ZSI are increased. This paper proposes a new switched trans ZSI(STZSI) with two switched trans cells which consist of one trans and two diodes. To confirm the operation performance of the proposed system, the PSIM simulation is performed for typical ZSI, switched inductor ZSI and the proposed STZSI. Voltage / current stress and transient state characteristics of each method are compared under the condition of DC input voltage 100[V] and output phase voltage 66[Vrms]. As a result, we confirmed that transient state of the proposed STZSI is short compared with the conventional ZSI because the high voltage gain is obtained using the same duty ratio, also a low duty ratio is required for the same output voltage. Finally, we could know the proposed system have low voltage and current stress in Z-network compared with the conventional ZSI.

Z-소스 인버터는 종전의 브리지 인버터와 달리 입력전압에 대하여 높은 전압을 출력할 수 있다. 그러나, 부스트 성능이 높아질수록 전압 및 전류 스트레스가 심해지는 문제가 발생한다. 따라서 최근에 높은 부스트 성능과 낮은 스트레스가 가능한 토폴로지가 연구되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 Switched-Trans Quasi Z-소스 인버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 인버터는 인덕터와 변압기를 이용해 임피던스 망을 구성하는 형태로 높은 부스트 성능을 가지면서 스트레스는 낮다. 제안된 토폴로지는 실험으로 타당성을 검증하였다.

Z-소스 인버터는 스위치의 암 단락과 개방을 이용한 인버터로써 기존의 전압형과 전류형 인버터의 단점을 개선하면서 승압 및 강압 기능을 동시에 가질 수 있다. 하지만 주전원과 스위치 회로 사이에 위치한 임피던스 네트워크 때문에 스위칭 소자에 과도한 전압 오버슈트가 발생하며, 암 단락으로 인한 스위칭 손실이 기존의 전압형 인버터보다 증가하게 되는 단점이 있다.. 본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭구현이 가능한 무손실 스너버를 적용한 소프트 스위칭 trans-Z-소스 인버터를 제안한다.

This paper was compared for the output voltage and efficiency of the single-phase Z-source inverter(ZSI) according to shoot through duty ratio D. The eight single-phase ZSI in this study are typical ZSI, Embedded ZSI(EZSI), Improved ZSI(IZSI), Quasi ZSI(QZSI), Series ZSI, Trans ZSI(TSI), Switched inductor ZSI(SL-ZSI) and Extended boost ZSI (exZSI). The eight ZSI are divided into two Groups. ; Group-1 which is ZSI with the ordinary voltage boost factor B, and Group-2 which is ZSI with the maximum voltage boost factor B. For the execution of the proposed study, the PSIM simulation was achieved under the condition of input DC voltage=150[V] of ZSI, load =30[${\Omega}$] and 60[Hz] output filter. The output voltage and efficiency of each ZSI were calculated within the limits of D=0.1~0.4. As a result, the output peak voltage of Group-2 was suddenly increased in a specified duty ratio D, and its efficiency was rapidly decreased. On the contrary, Group-1 shown the output and efficiency characteristics without sudden change compared to Group-2 despite the duty ratio increase. The efficiency of the Group-2 was sharply declined at duty ratio D of the most output voltage, but, in case of Group-1, the efficiency was slightly declined. Finally, the input DC current of ZSI with DCM and CCM was discussed.
