Abstract:The maximum power point tracking (MPPT) controller in the Photovoltaic system is the key to verify all kinds of MPPT control algorithms. But the development of actual controller has the defects of needing long periods, artificial code writing and so on. RT-LAB real-time simulation platform is an advanced model-based engineering design and test application platform. The outstanding real-time performance in the current experimental study and engineering design made it used more and more widely. Therefore, it is necessary to introduce its hardware and software structure and realtime performance in detail. This paper gave a comprehensive and systematic introduction to hardware architecture, software architecture and simulation process of RT-LAB. It also presented a semi-physical simulation experiment of photovoltaic system MPPT using the features of Photovoltaic MPPT and semi-physical Real-Time simulation technology. The MPPT control strategy is achieved by establishing model using Simulink package. Other parts of the main circuit were physical circuit except controller. The parameter adjustment functions of online RT-LAB can easily optimize controller parameters. Two special tools, ARTEMIS and RT-Events used in power electronics were described in detail. The RT-LAB software modeling standard was also illustrated. The testing results showed that the usage of RT-LAB for the development of photovoltaic controller can resolve many problems in the current controller development. The application of RT-LAB in photovoltaic systems provides a reference for the micro grid, smart grid and other real-time systems.

“…In [9] we focused on a critical review of the previous experience by pointing out the main deficiencies of the earlier platform and possible upgrades aiming to extend bandwidth, reliability and ease of operations. In [1] an evaluation of two interface design solutions for power hardware-in-the-loop experiments is presented.…”

The gate driver IC, developed at the University of South Carolina, provides a convenient and smart way to use GaN devices in power electronics, as well as making it possible to achieve miniaturization, high efficiency, reliability, and low cost for power systems. Publications resulting from this work describe the design of the driver IC, demonstrate the effectiveness of the new driver IC and the GaN HFET devices in power electronics applications. 5a.

DISTRIBUTION/AVAILABILITY STATEMENT. OBJECTIVESThe goal of this project was to develop a wide-bandwidth power converter that could serve as the power interface between a simulation platform and real functioning power hardware. Two technologies were investigated; 1) the mathematical basis for correct and stable operation of power hardware in the loop, including experimental verification, and 2) methods for actually implementing the needed very wideband power interfaceThe first investigation involves de...
