Abstract

Now-a-days due to the requirement of renewable energy sources, distributed generations (DG) are widely used. In such applications, DG grid connection is required through DC-ac inverters. But the DC output from fuel-cell is in low quantity, therefore there must needed the network which boosted up the DC voltage to the required level. To fulfill this requirement, Impedance Source DC to DC converter is required. Impedance Source-Converter is an advanced technology in electrical energy conversion, overcome limitations of traditional converters. This paper presents different types of impedance source networks for DC to DC power conversion. All types of impedance networks adapt a unique impedance network to connect a converter main circuit to source from which the supply is taken. Thus, providing the features that cannot available in the traditional voltage-source and current-source converters in which capacitor and inductor are used, respectively. The impedance source converter overcomes all the problems, barriers and limitations of the traditional converters and provides a new power conversion concept. These impedance source networks can be used in all DC-DC, ac-DC, ac-ac, DC-ac power conversion. So this paper describes the operating principle, simulation results and sizing of components of three types of impedance network and its comparison.
