Abstract
An input-series output-parallel (ISOP) system, in which multiple converter modules are connected in series at the input sides and parallel at the output side, is very suitable for high input-voltage, low output-voltage, and high output-current applications. Input-voltage sharing (IVS) and output-current sharing of the constituent modules among the ISOP system must be ensured. The existing IVS control strategies have drawbacks of lower reliability and lower modularity. In this paper, we propose a wireless IVS control strategy for ISOP systems based on positive output-voltage gradient method, which can effectively improve the reliability and modularity of ISOP systems. First, the operation principle of the proposed control strategy is introduced, and the IVS performance and output-voltage regulation characteristics of ISOP systems are analyzed. The stability of the proposed control strategy is also explored. A three-module ISOP system prototype is fabricated and tested in the laboratory, and the experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.
