Transformerless grid-connected inverters, due to their advantages of high efficiency, small volume and light weight, have been the subject of more research and interest in recent years. Due to the asymmetrical driving signal in pulse width modulation (PWM) caused by time-delay, zero-drift of the current sensors and imparities of the power transistors, output of the grid current contains dc component. As a result, power quality of the grid is degraded. In this paper, a dc (direct current) component suppression scheme with adaptive back-propagation (BP) neural network proportional-integral-differential (PID) control is proposed for dc component minimization. Moreover, sliding-window-double-iteration-method (SWDIM) is utilized for fast dc component extraction. Compared with the conventional method, the proposed scheme shows better performance, and the dc component can be attenuated to be within 0.5% of the rated current.

An improved control strategy for three-phase grid-connected inverters with space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) is proposed. When the grid current contains harmonics, the d-and q-axes grid currents is interacted in the traditional control method, and the waveform quality of the grid current is poor. As the reference output voltage cannot directly reflect the change of the reference grid current with the traditional control strategy, the dynamic response of the grid-connected inverter is slow. In order to solve the aforementioned problems, the d-and q-axes grid currents in the decoupled components of the grid current controller are substituted by the d-and q-axes reference grid currents, respectively. The operating principles of the traditional and proposed control methods are illustrated. Experimental results show that the grid-connected inverter with the improved control strategy has high waveform quality of the grid current and fast dynamic response.

Transformerless grid-connected inverters are of great industrial value in photovoltaic power generation. However, the direct current (DC) induced into the inverter’s output degrades the power quality of the grid. Recently, a back-propagation neural work proportional–integral–derivative (BP-PID) scheme has proven helpful in solving this problem. However, this scheme can be improved by reducing the suppressing time and overshoot. A genetic algorithm (GA)-based DC current minimization scheme, namely the genetic-algorithm-based BP-PID (GA-BP-PID) scheme, was established in this study. In this scheme, GA was used off-line to optimize the initial weights within the BP neural network. Subsequently, the optimal weight was applied to the online DC current suppression process. Compared with the BP-PID scheme, the proposed scheme can reduce the suppressing time by 59% and restrain the overshoot. A prototype of the proposed scheme was implemented and tested on experimental hardware as a proof of concept. The results of the scheme were verified using a three-phase inverter experiment. The novel GA-PB-PID scheme proposed in this study was proven efficient in reducing the suppressing time and overshoot.

This paper introduces the modelling of a novel three phase AC-AC converter with indirect use of a capacitor as DC voltage link. The proposed converter has high efficiency because it uses Space Vector PWM (SVPWM) technique at both rectificier and inverter stages to operate the pulse width modulation in IGBT switches. The novel converter is equipped with a power factor control to shape the rectifier input current waveform to be sinusoidal and to be in phase with the input voltage. To keep the DC voltage stable, the converter utilizes PI controllers. Simulations are conducted for output voltage from 120 to 300 Volts with output frequency ranging from 30 Hz to 60 Hz. The simulation results show that the converter is able to maintain stable the DC voltage and current. Furthermore, the model demonstrates the benefits of proposed converter in terms of acquiring high input power factor and sinusoidal current waveform at the output side of the inverter.

<span lang="EN-US">In this paper, a Wavelet modulated isolated two-stage three-phase bidirectional AC-DC converter is proposed for electric vehicle (EV) charging systems. Half-bridge resonant CLLC converter is proposed due to its high efficiency, wide gain range, galvanic isolation and bidirectional power flow. Wavelet modulation technique is used for three-phase six leg AC-DC converter due to its benefits of high DC component and lower harmonic contents. The proposed two-stage converter is developed and simulated in MATLAB Simulink environment. The contribution of this paper is on the implementation and performance analysis of Wavelet modulation in bidirectional AC-DC converters. The results show that Wavelet modulation is suitable to be implemented for the proposed bidirectional converter. The performance of the proposed converter delivers very low output voltage ripple and total harmonic distortion output current of less than 10% which is within the expected results.</span>

In this article, we propose a new strategy for controlling three-phase inverters of renewable energy sources, based on the Duty Cycle Modulatiom (DCM) control using the Park and Fortescue transformation (DCM-dq-dih). Our goals in setting and using this strategy are, on the one hand, to induce a lower harmonic rate as compared to the SPWM (Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation) strategy and on the other hand, this control technique enables the inverter to deliver balanced voltages, be it in the event of load unbalance. Our design is built on the basis of the known mode of DCM control of single-phase inverters. Thus, the control of our three-phase inverter is carried out by three DCM modules whose set-points come from the direct, reverse and homopolar strings reconstructed in a Park landmark. This new strategy was tested on the MATLAB Simulink environment for a load of 160 kW. The test results show a reduced Total Harmonic Distorsion (THD) of 2.7 times compared to the THD produced by the SPWM control strategy. In addition, regulation of the symmetrical components during load unbalance is ensured so that the inverter always delivers constant and balanced voltages.

In this paper, the power quality of interconnected microgrids is managed using a Model Predictive Control (MPC) methodology which manipulates the power converters of the microgrids in order to achieve the requirements. The control algorithm is developed for the microgrids working modes: grid-connected, islanded and interconnected. The results and simulations are also applied to the transition between the different working modes. In order to show the potential of the control algorithm, a comparison study is carried out with classical Proportional-Integral Pulse Width Modulation (PI-PWM) based controllers. The proposed control algorithm not only improves the transient response in comparison with classical methods but also shows an optimal behavior in all the working modes, minimizing the harmonics content in current and voltage even with the presence of non-balanced and non-harmonic-free three-phase voltage and current systems

This paper focuses on the understanding of service quality in the context of Vietnamese universities. It proposes an approach for measuring the quality of the higher education service provided by universities in Vietnam. Firstly, an exploratory study was conducted. Then, the set of items which were generated became the subject of a questionnaire that was then administered to 675 students of a Vietnamese university to determine the dimensions of higher education service quality in this context. The obtained results permit us to appropriate a measurement scale which is slightly different from the SERVQUAL scale widely known as the standard for measuring service quality. The results also show that tangible elements, responsiveness and assurance seem to be three specific dimensions of the higher education service of Vietnamese universities.
