Due to its advantages such as it can defeat problems such as leakage current and insertion of DC in the grid and provides low stress on power devices, Diode-clamped three-level inverter (DCTLI) is habitually used in transformerless photovoltaic (PV) connected to grid network. But it still has a problem of shoot-through which dwells in its legs, so its operation not reliable. Z source network is employed to permit operation without shoot through risk and improve its reliability. Coupled inductors are replaced the line transformers in to attain lower cost, reduced size, and improved its reliability and efficiency. Coupled inductor which avoids leakage current problem and losses. It employs coupled inductor z source diode clamped three level inverter (CI-Z-DC-TLI) to boost the voltage and further progress the consistency of the proposed system by avoiding the shoot through the problem. The proposed system assures that common-mode voltage and shoot-through risk is avoided. Moreover, controlling DC-TLI with Hysteresis SVM algorithm which improves output voltage and current control. Simulation and experimental results of this proposed system were analyzed using MATLAB environment and FPGA hardware.

Two quasi-Z-source DC-DC converters (q-ZSCs) with buck-boost converter gain were recently proposed. The converters have advantages of continuous gain curve, higher gain magnitude and buck-boost operation at efficient duty ratio range when compared with existing q-ZSCs. Accurate dynamic models of these converters are needed for global and detailed overview by understanding their operation limits and effects of components sizes. A dynamic model of one of these converters is proposed here by first deriving the gain equation, state equations and state space model. A generalized small signal model was also derived before localizing it to this topology. The transfer functions (TF) were all derived, the poles and zeros analyzed with the boundaries for stable operations presented and discussed. Some of the findings include existence of right-hand plane (RHP) zero in the duty ratio to output capacitor voltage TF. This is common to the Z-source and quasi-Z-source topologies and implies control limitations. Parasitic resistances of the capacitors and inductors affect the nature and positions of the poles and zeros. It was also found and verified that rather than symmetric components, use of carefully selected smaller asymmetric components L1 and C1 produces less parasitic voltage drop, higher output voltage and current under the same conditions, thus better efficiency and performance at reduced cost, size and weight.
