A hybrid SPV array configuration, termed alternate - quadratied - cross tied (A-QT-CT), that integrates quadra tied (QT) and total cross tied (TCT) configurations is proposed. This configuration is designed to provide maximum power extraction comparable to the best performing TCT configuration, while incorporating a reduced number of cross-links. Simulations were conducted utilising MATLAB to evaluate the performance of these configurations in the context of typical PSCs found in urban environments. This evaluation includes a comparative analysis with the established TCT, series-parallel (SP), bridge linked - TCT (BL-TCT), and SP-TCT configurations. The proposed configurations are integrated with Perturb & Observe (P&O), Cuckoo Search (CS), and Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) MPPT techniques. These algorithms were evaluated under PSCs using MAT LAB simulations, as well as a hardware model implemented with the Texas Instruments TMS320F28379D microcontroller. The time required to track the MPP and the steady-state MPPT efficiency are assessed. The combination of the CS MPPT method with A-QT-CT and TCT configurations has been identified as the optimal solution for minimising power loss in this application.","PeriodicalId":100339,"journal":{"name":"CPSS Transactions on Power Electronics and Applications","volume":"10 4","pages":"388-401"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11154933","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145963455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, a double-layer boundary vector-equivalence method is proposed, and the coupling coefficient formula for a circular coil with bilateral double-layer bounded magnetic shielding under horizontal offset is derived using spatial geometric relationships. The reliability of the proposed method is corroborated by the calculated, simulated, and laboratory-obtained values. The errors between calculated and simulated values are not more than 3.95%, and between calculated and laboratory-obtained values are not more than 4.51%, which confirms the accuracy of the proposed method.

Therefore, the HANPC TLI is an ideal solution for balancing performance and cost. However, excessive common-mode voltage (CMV) amplitudes are observed in conventional modulation methods, especially under unbalanced DC-links. This paper presents a CMV reduction method for the HANPC TLI with balanced and unbalanced DC-links. The scheme employs real-time sampling of photovoltaic array voltages on the DC side, followed by dynamic updates to the space vector diagram (SVD). Due to its inherent advantage of low CMV, zero vector and medium vectors are selected for reference vector synthesis. According to the position of the medium vectors in the updated SVD, the duty cycles are recalculated to ensure the output current quality. Furthermore, switching sequences are optimized through five-segment symmetrical patterning, ensuring minimal switching actions in power devices. Theoretical analysis demonstrates that this modulation method effectively reduces both the magnitude and root-mean-square (RMS) value of CMV while ensuring that SiC MOSFETs and Si IGBTs operate at high and low frequencies, respectively. The hardware-in-loop (HIL) tests validate the efficacy of the proposed modulation strategy.","PeriodicalId":100339,"journal":{"name":"CPSS Transactions on Power Electronics and Applications","volume":"10 4","pages":"432-439"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11154935","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145963454","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The DCMGC is such a complex network with multiple control objectives that requires control at both system-level and sub-grid level, which suits well with model predictive control (MPC) algorithms. However, the MPC suffers from the high computation burden, especially dealing with complex control plant models like DCMGCs.

The lightweighted DC motor-driven model of HEV is considered which includes a high degree of nonlinearity as uncertainty.

The proposed controller is designed for speed control of the motor for optimal operation of HEV to meet the model range specifications based on SUE and output feedback. A suitable reference trajectory has been obtained for a smooth tracking response of motor speed. The uncertainty considered in this paper is significantly large and does not require satisfying the constraints (bounded/finite derivative to be 0, etc.). The estimator-based OFC is synthesized for the attenuation of the effect of nonlinearity and uncertainty to stabilize the HEV. For the analysis of stability, sufficient conditions for the synthesis of OFC have been obtained using the Lyapunov theory and linear matrix inequality approach.

Existing wind-storage joint frequency regulation (FR) strategies exhibit significant limitations in coordinated control capability and energy storage system (ESS) lifetime management. To address these challenges, this paper proposes a hierarchical control strategy for coordinated optimization of wind farms (WF) and hybrid energy storage systems (HESS). First, a multi-constraint regulation mechanism is established to dynamically switch power operation curves by assessment of frequency and the operating states of wind turbine generators (WTG) and HESS. Second, a smooth transition algorithm is designed to suppress the frequency secondary drop (FSD) by controlling the dynamic trajectory of power curves. For HESS, a dual-layer optimization framework combining model predictive control (MPC) and fuzzy logic control (FLC) is employed: the upper layer performs rolling optimization of control objectives, while the lower layer utilizes FLC to allocate power between the supercapacitor and the battery, adjust the operation curve, and optimize the battery charging strategy based on the state of charge (SOC) and frequency feedback. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy reduces frequency deviation by 60%–80% and decreases battery lifetime loss by more than 20% under various operating conditions.","PeriodicalId":100339,"journal":{"name":"CPSS Transactions on Power Electronics and Applications","volume":"10 3","pages":"317-327"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-08-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11134725","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145236680","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
