    Second-order Harmonic Ripple Mitigation: A Solution for the Micro-Inverter Applications
    (IEEE, 2018) Gautam, Aditya R
    Single-phase inverter suffers an unwanted second-order ripple at DC input of it. A substantial amount of this ripple may propagate through the system components and inject into the DC source. This causes several problems; related to system efficiency, life, cost, size, reliability and stability. This paper proposes an adaptive non-linear sliding mode controller for quasi-switched boost inverter used mainly in microinverter applications. The proposed controller shapes the output-impedance of the boost circuit of quasi-switched boost inverter such that the propagation of the ripple to DC source is resisted. The proposed control technique is verified using Matlab-Simulink.

    ISMC for Boost-Derived DC–DC–AC Converter: Mitigation of 2ω-Ripple and Uncertainty, and Improvement in Dynamic Performance
    (IEEE, 2020-04) Gautam, Aditya R
    In controller design, the classical control techniques have their distinct advantages and capabilities. The integral slidingmode control (ISMC) leverages the merits of such control techniques by allowing their merger with the sliding-mode control (SMC). ISMC is composed of two components, a nominal control designed using any methodology and a discontinuous-SMC, and thus the system can have specified performance with high degree of robustness. The proposed work achieves multiple objectives, i.e., mitigates 2ω-ripple, ensures robustness, and improves dynamic performance. The proposed ISM-based controller amalgamates SMC with a new dual-loop adaptive PID-control (as the nominal control). The discontinuous-SMC part ensures robustness against the matched-uncertainty, i.e., disturbances entering through the input channel such as parametric variations, exogenous disturbances, modeling-error, and the nominal control mitigate 2ω-ripple at the input of dc-dc-ac converter. Moreover, the adaptive nature of nominal control improves the system performance at the large line-load transients unlike the conventional control. Furthermore, the proposed controller supports the reduction of 2ω-ripple at the input of converter. The proposed control scheme is validated using 1-kW prototype.

    Adaptive SMC for the Second-Order Harmonic Ripple Mitigation: A Solution for the Micro-Inverter Applications
    (IEEE, 2019-08) Gautam, Aditya R
    There have been several advanced topologies proposed by the community for micro-inverter applications. However, many such applications suffer from unwanted second-order harmonic current ripple at dc input. Moreover, in the absence of suitable passive filter or ripple compensator, the second-order harmonics ripple may propagate into the dc source. This results in several problems to the system, related to system efficiency, life, cost, size, reliability, and stability. This paper proposes an adaptive sliding-mode controller to shape the output impedance of the boost-circuit of quasi-switched boost inverter such that the propagation of the ripple from dc link to the dc-input source is resisted. The quasi-switched boost inverter is one of the advanced and suitable topologies for the micro-inverter applications. The adaptive nature of the proposed controller improves the transient performance of the system at the line-load transients unlike some existing solutions, which affects dynamics adversely to achieve ripple mitigation objective. The controller ensures voltage regulation within 5% at dc link. The proposed control technique is verified using a lab-prototype of 500 W quasi-switched boost inverter.
