“…In VCVSIs, the desired current flow is generated by controlling the voltage across the decoupling inductor. The CCVSI uses switching instants to generate the desired current flow in the VSI's inductor filter, using instantaneous current feedback [11]. This paper studies the behavior of a fuzzy controlled simple pulse width modulated three phase VCVSI, which feeds a weak ac network with power produced from an offshore wind farm.…”

This paper used fuzzy logic theory to study the behavior of a simple pulse width modulated three phase voltage controlled VSI, which feeds a weak ac network with power produced from an offshore wind farm (WF) of induction generators. Its control system, which is based on fuzzy controllers, manages to offer very satisfactory performance. Using Matlab simulation, the study was performed under both steady-state and transient conditions. The results have proven an excellent performance and verified the validity of the proposed system. The studies have also demonstrated the ability of the advanced inverter to assist the system keeping the ac voltage fluctuations in the point of common coupling at an acceptable level.

A novel battery-operated electronic ballast of fluorescent lamps for photovoltaic applications is presented in this paper. In order to reserve the electrical power transformed from photovoltaic modules, a battery charger with high performance, low switching losses, low cost and high efficiency should be designed. This paper presents a novel battery charger with electronic ballast which is characterized with simple structure, less component count, small volume, light weight, low cost, high efficiency and high power density. Moreover, the electronic ballast uses a current-sourcing push-pull resonant inverter to supply a 40W fluorescent lamp. This new electronic ballast structure can accept 12V DC voltage input to provide the power that the lamp needs. Derivation and operating principles of the proposed topology are performed. All switches in the system can achieve zero-voltage-switching. Experimental results show the functionality of the overall system as well as prove it to be a good solution for several photovoltaic applications.
