TLDR
The obtained results show that in the case when the proportional constant of the PI controller varies in time according to the appropriate law, the microinverter output current sinus shape distortions decrease as compared to the cases when the ordinary PI controller is used.
Abstract
The modification of the proportional–integral (PI) controller with the variable proportional constant for tracking of the grid-connected photovoltaic microinverter output current has been proposed. The obtained results show that in the case when the proportional constant of the PI controller varies in time according to the appropriate law, the microinverter output current sinus shape distortions decrease as compared to the case when the ordinary PI controller is used. The operation of the microinverter with the proposed controller was investigated for the cases when the electrical grid voltage sinus shape is not distorted and when it is distorted by the higher harmonics.
