摘要
The research into series connection of dc-dc converters has been concentrating more recently on creating a high voltage low current string. However, the interleaving technique of series-connect photovoltaic (PV) module integrated converters (MICs) has not been sufficiently addressed so far. This paper proposes a low cost high performance interleaving technique based on series PV MICs to reduce the output voltage-ripples. With the reduced voltage-ripples, the size and cost of capacitors at grid connected inverters can be reduced. The proposed technique is capable of solving the problem for PV panels with mismatched operating conditions. Each PV panel is able to track its own maximum power point (MPP) which simultaneously delivers the maximum power for the system. The proposed technique is mathematically investigated based on boost (step-up) converters and validated by Simulink/Matlab simulation and experiment results. The MPP tracking (MPPT) algorithm is tested for a PV/battery charging system with satisfactory performances in both steady-state and transient responses with reduced voltage-ripples.
