  • Abstract
    A control scheme for parallel-connected converter systems that will transfer the maximum available power from a nonideal voltage source is presented. Monitoring the rates of change in both the average input current and the average input power from the source, the proposed control scheme can dynamically regulate the DC-DC converter system to track the peak power point of the source. The amplitude and the frequency of oscillation due to a limit cycle around the system peak power point are analyzed
