Abstract :
Control of inverter output voltage in a battery-operated photovoltaic inverter is presented. Load regulation and harmonic reduction are both achieved by using a sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique. In the described SPWM version, the amplitude of the triangle carrier signal is modulated by the addition of an in-phase feedback triangle “error” signal
