ADAPTIVE VOLTAGE CONTROL OF THE DC/DC BOOST STAGE IN
PV CONVERTERS WITH SMALL INPUT CAPACITOR
ABSTRACT:
In the case of photovoltaic (PV) systems, an adequate PV voltage regulation is fundamental in order
to both maximize and limit the power. For this purpose, a large input capacitor has traditionally been used.
However, when reducing that capacitor's size, the nonlinearities of the PV array make the performance of
the voltage regulation become highly dependent on the operating point. This paper analyzes the nonlinear
characteristics of the PV generator and clearly states their effect on the control of the dc/dc boost stage of
commercial converters by means of a linearization around the operating point. Then, it proposes an adaptive
control, which enables the use of a small input capacitor preserving at the same time the performance of the
original system with a large capacitor. Experimental results are carried out for a commercial converter with a
40 μF input capacitor, and a 4 kW PV array. The results corroborate the theoretical analysis; they evidence
the problems of the traditional control, and validate the proposed control with such a small capacitor.
