A Champernowne Adaptive Filter-Based Control of Grid Interactive Solar PV with Power Quality Enrichment.

This work presents a variable step Champernowne Adaptive Filter (VS-CAF) based control architecture for a grid-integrated solar photovoltaic system. The control structure is implemented to successfully synchronize the two-stage solar photovoltaic at the point of common coupling where the source and domestic loads are connected. The control architecture ensures solar power injection and improvised power quality at the unity power factor. Moreover, the control structure provides only the balanced positive sequence fundamental sinusoidal source currents at solar irradiation alteration and load disturbances. The VS-CAF is exploited to estimate the peak of the fundamental component out of the harmonics-rich domestic load currents. To examine the efficacy of the suggested control technique, a 40 kW solar photovoltaic is simulated using MATLAB/Simulink. The performance assessment of the grid-tied solar generation system is carried out at solar irradiation alteration, zero solar irradiation, and detachment of one phase of the three-phase load. Various simulation results are carried out to verify the successful integration of solar photovoltaics into the three-phase grid following the IEEE-519 standard and satisfactory performance during various working conditions. Moreover, the simulation results are also verified with real-time results taken from the Opal-RT simulator. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
