Abstract

The symmetrical input-interleaved high-gain DC-DC converters are suitable candidates to be used as the first stage in PV microinverters and as parallel-connected power optimizers. In both applications, they are responsible for boosting the PV module DC voltage to a higher value and executing the maximum power point tracking control. However, such converters have many state variables, some of them discontinuous, and many operation stages, which make the development of the small-signal model a challenging task. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to propose a reduced-order improved average method (ROIAM) to model the family member of converters that present characteristics such as symmetry, interleaved operation, and discontinuous state-space variables. ROIAM is applied to model for the first time in the literature the symmetrically-interleaved coupled inductor-based boost (SICIBB), leading to a fourth-order mathematical model (reduced-order model). The complete eighth-order mathematical model is developed as well to prove that the reduced-order model represents correctly the dynamic behavior of the SICIBB converter by employing only four state variables, reducing considerably the effort of the modeling. Based on the reduced-order proposed model, a closed-loop control is designed and tested in a 300-W prototype of the SICIBB converter.
