Abstract

This paper deals with grid integration of photovoltaic systems through single-phase unified power quality conditioner (PV-1UPQC) based on notch filter novel control algorithm for its function such as better phase detection, voltage sag/swell, voltage unbalance, voltage and current harmonics eliminations. A notch filter-based control algorithm includes a phase-locked loop (PLL) mechanism which is responsible to avoid multiple zero crossing at the time of highly distorted grid voltage detection. Notch filter PLL-based control algorithm is applied to both series and shunt inverters of PV-tied UPQC. In addition to normalizing voltage and current perturbations, proposed controller has feature of phase detection and perfect grid synchronization. Synchronous reference d-q frame controller and unit vector control algorithm with conventional PLL is also studied, utilized and evaluated for control of PV-1UPQC. Hardware setup is developed in laboratory using DS1103 dSPACE processor. Performance and efficiency of PV-1UPQC are analyzed through simulation and experimentation for various operating conditions.
