Abstract :
This paper presents the nonlinear control of single-phase grid connected to the photovoltaic system through an adaptation circuit and LCL filter. The control objective is threefold i) regulating the DC voltage to a desired value (VR) ii) supply a current with sinusoidal form and in phase with the grid voltage by controlling DC/AC converter (power factor correction: PFC) iii) extracting the maximum power from the PV array by acting on the DC/DC converter (MPPT)). The whole system is described by 5th order nonlinear mathematical model and controlled by using the backstepping technique and its tools from Lyapunov stability. The simulation results have been performed through Matlab/Simulink environment and show that the designed controller meets its objective.
