Description
Summary:This paper is concerned with the problem of optimal control of photovoltaic grid-connected inverter. Firstly, the discrete-time nonlinear mathematical model of single-phase photovoltaic grid-connected inverter in the rotating coordinate system is constructed by the Delta operator, which simplifies the control process and facilitates direct digital realization. Then, a novel optimal control method which is significant to achieve trajectory tracking for photovoltaic grid-connected inverter is developed by constructing a control Lyapunov functional against the difficulty of solving HJB (Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman) partial differential equations. More importantly, the performance matrix of the controller which is very meaningful to many performance indicators of the system is also optimized via the particle swarm optimization. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
