GPS Synchronization of Smart Distributed Converters for Microgrid Applications

In this paper, a smart distributed DC/DC converter synchronization advanced technique and phase angle optimization algorithm are proposed using to reduce the DC bus overall ripple. A global positioning system-based scheme is used to synchronize the carrier among the distributed converters. The carri...
