Abstract

This paper explains a deep comparison between two controller techniques firstly controller control on modulation index and the second controller use dq method. Both of these controller approaches have control on three phase voltage and use the same system unchanged. The system is a solar system together with a backup battery connected to a single housing unit. Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm has been utilized to improve the controller performance by automatically finding its parameters in order to reduce the error in the proportional Integral (PI) controller. Optimization process has been done with a real recording data of housing unit demand in Malaka, Malaysia. System has been simulated and tested in MATLAB/Simulink environment with m-file runs PSO algorithm and simulate the system hundreds of times to get the best results showing in this paper. Comparisons were taking place in controller design and in the simulation results that express the strength and weaken points of each controller starts with THD voltage and current waveform and RMS voltage in each controller.
