This paper emphasizes the design and investigation of a new optimization scheme for a grid-connected photovoltaic system (PVS) under unbalance faults. The proposed scheme includes fuzzy logic controller (FLC) based on the Levenberg–Marquardt (LM) optimization technique in coordination with bridge-type-fault-current limiter (BFCL) as the fault ride through (FRT) Strategy. The LM optimization-based control is an iterative process with a fast and robust response and is always convergent. The BFCL reduces the fault currents to rated values without compromising at ripples. A keen and critical comparison of the designed strategy is carried out with a conventionally tuned proportional-integral (PI) controller in coordination with the crowbar FRT strategy. A 100kW MATLAB/Simulink model of a photovoltaic system is used for simulation and analysis of unbalance faults at the point of common-coupling (PCC) and at 5 km away from PCC. It is found that grid-connected PVS is highly influenced by the fault type and less effected by the distribution line length. The simulation results authenticated smooth, stable, ripples with free, robust, and fault-tolerant behavior of the proposed scheme.

In this paper is presented high efficiency photovoltaic system (PV) with fuzzy logic controller. This system consists of PV panel, boost DC/DC converter and 24V DC load. Control module is realized with fuzzy controller. This controller has double function and it gives references for duty factor and switching frequency of the converter control signal. In this way the PV system works with applied maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method and switching frequency is changed on the way so the converter works with maximum efficiency in continuous current mode. Functionality of proposed model is tested through computer simulations in Matlab and on laboratory prototype.

In this paper, a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithm for photovoltaic (PV) systems is achieved based on fuzzy logic controller (FLC) and compared with an anfis (neuro-fuzzy) based mppt controller, this method allies the abilities of artificial neural networks in learning and the power of fuzzy logic to handle imprecise data. Both methods are simulated using matlab/ simulink. The choise of power variation and the current variation as inputs of the proposed controllersreducesthe calculation. Both FLC and ANFIS based MPPTare tested in terms of steady state performance and the pv system dynamic.


The growing importance of non conventional energy in the auto mobile industry needs the use of brushless DC (BLDC) motor drives the solar photo voltaic (PV). To overcome the disadvantages in the conservative DC-DC converters, Zeta converter is used to optimize power handling through controlling of duty cycle. To mitigate changes in output of PV, the Hybrid Energy Storage System (HESS) is implemented into the PV system to maintain a constant voltage at the BLDC motor input. The PV-HESS system is controlled correctly by a robust power management algorithm. The Zeta converter can meet the smooth performance of the system by using particle swarm optimization technique of maximum power point tracking. By placing set of rules in the FLC controller we get the system stability faster than existed controller. The performance of the fuzzy logic controller built was demonstrated in terms of atmospheric condition changes using MATLAB/ Simulink

Abstract This work investigates the performance of a single-phase grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system under non-ideal source voltage conditions using a fuzzy logic controller. The single-phase instantaneous reactive power theory has been modified to explore the harmonic and reactive power compensation with distorted grid voltage excitation while transferring active and reactive power to the grid and the non-linear load. Instead of a traditional Proportional-Integral (PI) controller, the proposed method implements a fuzzy logic controller for the extraction of the reference compensating current. This method is compared with the traditional single-phase instantaneous reactive power theory. The advantage associated with a fuzzy logic controller is that it does not need accurate mathematical modeling of the system, instead, it is based upon the linguistic characterization of the input and output variables. Besides, care has been taken to provide uninterrupted compensation throughout the variation of the solar irradiation level. The proposed method has also been verified through a laboratory-developed prototype using a DS1103 processor.

This paper presents control design based on an Interval Type-2 Fuzzy Logic (IT2FL) for the trajectory tracking of 3-RRR (3-Revolute-Revolute-Revolute) planar parallel robot. The design of Type-1 Fuzzy Logic Controller (T1FLC) is also considered for the purpose of comparison with the IT2FLC in terms of robustness and trajectory tracking characteristics. The scaling factors in the output and input of T1FL and IT2FL controllers play a vital role in improving the performance of the closed-loop system. However, using trial-and-error procedure for tuning these design parameters is exhaustive and hence an optimization technique is applied to achieve their optimal values and to reach an improved performance. In this study, Social Spider Optimization (SSO) algorithm is proposed as a useful tool to tune the parameters of proportional-derivative (PD) versions of both IT2FLC and T1FLC. Two scenarios, based on two square desired trajectories (with and without disturbance), have been tested to evaluate the tracking performance and robustness characteristics of proposed controllers. The effectiveness of controllers have been verified via numerical simulations based on MATLAB/SIMULINK programming software, which showed the superior of IT2FLC in terms of robustness and tracking errors.

In transmission line, the series compensation is used to improve stability and increases the power transmission capacity. It generates sub synchronous resonance (SSR) at turbine-generator shaft due to the interaction between the series compensation and wind turbine system. To solve this, several methods have been presented. However, these provide less performance during contingency period. Therefore, to mitigate the SSR and also to improve the dynamic performance of hybrid wind and PV system connected with series compensated wind farms, the adaptive technique of the Black Widow Optimization algorithm based Fuzzy Logic Controller (BWO-FLC) with UPFC is proposed in this paper. Here, the objective function is solved optimally using BWO technique. Based on this, the Fuzzy Logic Controller is designed. The results proved that the proposed controller performs the mitigation of SSR. The damping ratios of proposed controller to mitigation of SSR are 0.0098, 0.0139, and 0.0195 for wind speed of 6, 8 and 10 m/s respectively.
