A Grid-Forming Split-Phase Three-Leg Inverter with Unbalanced Loading and Active Power Decoupling
This paper presents a split-phase three-leg inverter that regulates 180-degree phase-shifted AC voltages to support residential house loads under unbalanced loading conditions and decouples double line frequency power pulsation by utilizing the third half-bridge switching leg. The active power decoupling function is added without extra active switching components. The control feasibility and effectiveness are verified through MATLAB Simulink simulation and controller hardware-in-the-loop test.
