Abstract

This article demonstrates a new topology for optimization of the electrical variables and enhancement of low-voltage-ride-through (LVRT) capacity of a grid-tied photovoltaic system (PS) during asymmetrical faults. The proposed topology comprises a fuzzy-logic controller (FLC) based on gradient descent (GD) optimization in association with parallel-resonance-type fault current limiter (PRFCL) as an LVRT circuitry. Gradient descent is an iterative process to minimize the objective function by updating the variable in the opposite direction of the gradient of the objective function. The PRFCL optimizes the fault variables, specifically preventing voltage sag without any transitional spikes. A 100-kW detailed model of grid-tied PS is used in MATLAB/Simulink to analyze the response of the proposed topology at the point of common coupling (PCC) and PV side variables. A keen comparative study of the conventionally adopted proportional-integral (PI) controller in association with crowbar circuitry is carried out for the justification of the proposed topology. The simulation findings of the proposed topology authenticate the optimal response of variables in terms of stability, robustness, smoothness, and fault tolerance at both the grid side and the PV side.
