Abstract
SummaryNowadays, Z‐source inverter (ZSI) has received several attentions compared to other power converters owing to their simplicity and reliability. In this paper, a refine control methodology of capacitor voltage control is presented based on third‐order small signal analysis. The proposed control is applied to the improved switched inductor ZSI (ISL‐ZSI). Proportional, integral, and derivative controller (PID) is adopted due to their capability to operate with large operation levels, reliable operation, and cheaper implementation. In addition, the function of this control can be achieved even with incomplete system data or parameters variations. ISL‐ZSI has been presented because of its advantages such as the high gain of direct current voltage, low voltage stress for both the Z‐network and the inverter bridge switches, and ensuring good soft starting. In addition, the inrush current has been removed based on its configuration. The proposed control is validated by both experimental and simulation results under input voltage change, load change, and steady‐state operations using DSP F28335 and MATLAB SIMULINK Real‐Time Workspace.
