Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of power electronics and communication technology, and in particular to a digital power communication power supply and its control method suitable for information support in multi-node AC microgrids. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, common communication methods used for energy management in multi-node AC microgrids include local area network (LAN) communication, fiber optic communication, and power line carrier communication. Wired communication requires additional communication lines and is susceptible to damage in remote areas. Power line carrier communication transmits information via power lines without requiring additional lines, but it does require additional hardware circuitry for demodulation and a power supply. Furthermore, in multi-node AC microgrids, the power line carrier communication signal strength distributed to each node is the same and relatively weak, easily leading to limitations in communication distance and stability. Therefore, current communication methods used in multi-node AC microgrids still have significant limitations in various application scenarios. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a digital power communication power supply and its control method suitable for information support in multi-node AC microgrids, which effectively solves the communication limitation problem in multi-node, long-distance AC microgrids, in order to address the shortcomings of the existing technology.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a digital power communication power supply suitable for information support of multi-node AC microgrids, comprising an uncontrollable rectifier bridge module, an LC resonant amplifier module, and a single-stage Boost-Flyback module connected in sequence;

[0005] The uncontrollable rectifier bridge module includes two parallel bridge arms, and the input side of the two parallel bridge arms is connected to any one phase of the three-phase AC bus.

[0006] The LC resonant amplifier module includes a resonant amplification inductor connected to one output terminal of the uncontrolled rectifier bridge module, the resonant amplification inductor being connected to one end of a resonant amplification capacitor, and the other end of the resonant amplification capacitor being connected to the other output terminal of the uncontrolled rectifier bridge module.

[0007] The single-stage Boost-Flyback module includes an inductor. One end of the inductor is connected to the resonant amplifying inductor, and the other end is connected to the anode of two parallel diodes. The cathode of the first diode is connected to the drain of a switching transistor and one end of a magnetizing inductor. The source of the switching transistor is connected to the output of the uncontrolled rectifier bridge module and one end of a first capacitor. The other end of the capacitor is connected to the cathode of a second diode and the other end of the magnetizing inductor. The magnetizing inductor is connected in parallel with the primary winding of a high-frequency transformer. The secondary winding of the high-frequency transformer is connected in parallel with the second capacitor. The anode of the second diode is connected to the other end of the secondary winding of the high-frequency transformer.

[0008] Compared to the auxiliary power supply of traditional inverters, this invention not only provides auxiliary power supply to the inverter's internal components, but also adds a resonant amplifying inductor and a resonant amplifying capacitor, enabling the digital power communication power supply itself to have information transmission and reception capabilities.

[0009] This invention provides a control method for the above-mentioned communication power supply, comprising the following steps:

[0010] Reference output voltage value v out_ref The output voltage v obtained across the second capacitor C3 out The output voltage error value is obtained by subtraction, and after passing through the PI controller, it is compared with the AC input voltage. ac The absolute value of the synchronous sinusoidal signal |sinω i Multiplying by t| yields the power reference current value i. ref2 In the formula ω i The angular frequency of the power grid;

[0011] The modulated signal carrier s is obtained using the binary baseband data signal a(t). a (t)=(2a(t)-1)msinω s t, and then obtain the communication reference current value i through switch k1. ref1 In the formula, m is the amplitude of the signal carrier, and ω s The angular frequency of the signal carrier.

[0012] Power reference current value i ref2 and communication reference current value i ref1 The reference current value i is obtained by adding them together. ref The reference current value i ref The absolute value of the sampled input current |i in The difference is calculated, and the difference is passed through a PI controller to obtain a first result. The node signal enhancement coefficient G is passed through switch k2 and multiplied by the first result to obtain the duty cycle signal d. The duty cycle signal d is compared with a triangular carrier wave to obtain the drive signal g(t) of the switch. The value range of the node signal enhancement coefficient G is 0 < G < 0.1, and in this invention, G = 0.05.

[0013] The coefficient G can reduce the open-loop gain of the current inner loop in the control method, thus slowing down the response speed of the digital power communication power supply, which is reflected in a decrease in input impedance. The formula for calculating the open-loop gain is: K OL =G(K p +K i / s)G o (s), where K p K i These are the proportional and integral coefficients of the PI controller, respectively, G o(s) is the transfer function from power supply control to output in digital power communication.

[0014] The switches k1 and k2 enable the digital power communication power supply to operate in three node modes:

[0015] When k1 = 1 and k2 = 0, the communication reference current value i ref1 =s a (t), and without adding the node signal enhancement coefficient G, the digital power communication power supply operates in the transmitting node mode;

[0016] When k1 = 0 and k2 = 1, the communication reference current value i ref1 =0, and with the addition of the node signal enhancement coefficient G, the digital power communication power supply operates in receiver node mode;

[0017] When k1 = 0 and k2 = 0, the communication reference current value i ref1 =0, and no node signal enhancement factor G is added, so the digital power communication power supply operates in idle node mode.

[0018] This invention, without adding additional communication lines, uses a digital power communication power supply as the communication carrier. Through working node mode switching, nodes in an AC microgrid that need to send information operate in transmitting node mode; nodes that need to receive information operate in receiving node mode; and the remaining nodes operate in idle node mode. A node signal enhancement coefficient G is added to the receiving node control, making its input impedance relatively lower than other nodes. This allows the receiving node to receive more communication current, effectively solving the problem of weak and uniform communication current at each node in a multi-node AC microgrid, thus making communication more reliable.

[0019] The method of the present invention further includes a communication signal demodulation section, the communication signal demodulation section comprising:

[0020] Sampling receiver node digital power communication power supply input current i in The input current i in After passing through a bandpass filter (BPF), the communication current component i with the same frequency as the signal carrier is obtained. inc ;

[0021] The communication current component i inc With signal carrier msinω s Multiply by t and then by the input voltage v ac The symbolic function v sign Multiply, the result s b (t) is obtained after passing through a low-pass filter LPF. L (t);

[0022] For s L(t) is sampled and decided to obtain the binary output signal s(t); the sampling and decision process includes: detecting the positive and negative signs of the intermediate signal in each symbol, when it is greater than 0, s(t) is 1, and when it is less than 0, s(t) is 0.

[0023] The signal demodulation method of the present invention utilizes signal carrier demodulation, which can recover the signal more accurately, enabling the receiving node to work effectively in low signal-to-noise ratio environments such as multi-node and long-distance environments.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0025] 1. Compared with the auxiliary power supply of traditional inverters, the present invention not only provides auxiliary power supply for the inverter, but also adds resonant amplification inductor and resonant amplification capacitor, enabling the digital power communication power supply itself to have information transmission and reception capabilities.

[0026] 2. This invention effectively solves the communication limitation problem in multi-node, long-distance AC microgrids without adding extra communication lines. Increasing the node signal enhancement coefficient G allows more communication current to be received by the receiving node, making communication more reliable.

[0027] 3. This invention is embedded inside the inverter and is directly powered by a single-phase AC power grid, eliminating the need for additional power supply circuits and hardware demodulation circuits, thus reducing design costs. Attached Figure Description
