Abstract

This paper proposes an improved pulse-width modulation (PWM) strategy to reduce the capacitor voltage ripple in Z-source wind energy conversion system. In order to make sure that Z-source capacitor voltage has symmetrical maximum and minimum amplitudes in each active state, the shoot-through time is divided into six unequal parts. According to the active state and zero state, the shoot-through time is rearranged to match the charging time and discharging time of the Z-source capacitors. Theoretically, it is indicated that the voltage ripple of the Z-source capacitors can be reduced effectively by means of the proposed PWM scheme. Finally, simulation and experimental results are given to verify the performance of the presented method.
