Abstract
A bidirectional three-phase dc–ac converter with embedded dc–dc converter for bidirectional storage interface is proposed in this paper. With the help of the embedded dc–dc converter, the voltage of the storage battery can vary in a wide range. To minimize the power rating and power losses of the embedded dc–dc converter, a simple carrier-based pulsewidth modulation (PWM) strategy with zero-sequence injection is proposed. By adopting the proposed PWM strategy, only a small ratio of total power needs to be processed by the embedded dc–dc converter, while most of the power is only processed by the three-phase dc–ac stage within a single conversion stage. As a result, quasi single-stage power conversion is achieved to improve the conversion efficiency of the overall dc–ac power system. Principles, characteristics, and implementations of the proposed three-phase dc–ac converter and its PWM strategy are analyzed in detail. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed solutions are verified with experimental results.
