Abstract

The full-bridge inverter with unipolar PWM (UPWM) or hybrid PWM (HPWM) has higher efficiency and lower filtering requirement. However, when it is used for grid-connected transformerless photovoltaic system, the ground current may be high due to the parasitic capacitors and high frequency common-mode voltage. In this paper, the output filter capacitor is proposed to suppress the ground current. In this method, the output filter capacitor is parallelled with the parasitic capacitors. The analytical method is established to calculate the ground current. The effect of the novel method under different modulation technique is studied. Efficiency estimation is done for comparison of different topologies. Finally, the validity of the proposed method is verified by simulation and experimental results.
