In this paper, a single-phase current-source bidirectional converter topology for V2G applications is proposed. The proposed converter consists of a single-phase current-source rectifier (SCSR) and an auxiliary switching network (ASN). It offers bidirectional power flow between the battery and the grid in the buck or boost mode and expands the output voltage range, so that it can be compatible with different voltage levels. The topology structure and operating principles of the proposed converter are analyzed in detail. An indirect control algorithm is used to realize the charging and discharging of the battery. Finally, the semiconductor losses and system efficiency are analyzed. Simulation and experimental results demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed topology.
I. INTRODUCTION
Developing plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV) or electric vehicles (EV) is an effective way to solve the increasingly serious energy crisis and global warming issues because of their reduced fuel usage and greenhouse emissions
[1]
,
[2]
. If the charging device in a PHEV/EV is designed with bidirectional power transfer capability, the power stored in them can be fed back to the grid, which is termed as a “vehicle-to-grid” (V2G) system
[3]
,
[4]
. This is reported to be best suited for electricity balancing markets due to the ability to provide services like power system regulation
[5]
,
[6]
, load balancing by valley filling
[7]
and peak shaving
[8]
,
[9]
.
In a V2G system, the battery charger plays a critical role, because the charging time, the quality of the power and the battery life are linked to it
[10]
,
[11]
. A battery charger with a high power density, low cost, high efficiency, and flexibility, has been the main focus of current research in both industrial and academic communities. Nowadays, a two-stage topology that voltage-source rectifier (VSR) cascades a dc-dc converter is widely applied in EV/PHEV
[12]
-
[14]
. This type of charger offers a two-way electrical energy flow and communication. In addition, the quality of the input current is improved by the PWM technique.
According to the duality between the VSR and the current-source rectifier (CSR), the CSR is suitable for a battery charger. However, there are relatively few studies on their application to the battery area. Actually the conventional CSR used as a charger was reported early
[15]
-
[17]
. However, the reversed energy flow is not allowed. Recently more and more studies have been done on current-source converters (CSC)
[18]
-
[25]
. As one type of CSC, the AC/DC matrix converter
[18]
,
[19]
is attractive in V2G applications due to its inherent bi-directional power flow. However, it needs a large number of semiconductor switches. Therefore, an AC/DC matrix converter topology applied as a battery charger with only three switches has been presented
[20]
. However, the energy stored in the battery cannot be inverted to the power grid. A charger based on the CSR and H-bridge inverter was reported, where the H-bridge inverter works as an inverting link
[21]
. It supports bidirectional energy flow and has fewer switches when compared with AC/DC matrix converters. However, undesired redundant switches still exits and that may restrict the scope of its application. Therefore, a simplified topology which can perform multiple functions was studied
[22]
. For reducing the switch power losses and EMI noise, a bidirectional swiss rectifier
[23]
,
[24]
and a bidirectional 3rd harmonic injection active filter rectifier
[25]
were proposed. Their common advantage is that the rectifier works as the fundamental frequency. All the CSCs mentioned above are three phase chargers. When a low power charger is required, for example, when charging at home or in an office, a single phase charger is usually preferred
[10]
.
Various topologies and schemes based on a diode rectifier or a voltage-source rectifier have been reported for single phase chargers
[10]
,
[26]
-
[28]
. However, few studies have focused on single phase current-source chargers. In
[29]
, a novel inductor voltage control method was proposed for a single phase CSC to achieve any input power factor. Other researchers focused on the power decoupling problem in single phase CSCs
[30]
,
[31]
.
Because the CSR is one kind of buck converter, it is not compatible with higher battery voltages. To realize a bidirectional power flow, increase reliability and expand the application range, a single-phase current-source bidirectional converter topology is presented for V2G applications in this paper. Its front-end is a conventional CSR and its rear-end is an ASN composed of two IGBTs and two diodes. The role of the front-end SCSR is to convert the supply ac voltage into an intermediate dc link voltage and to realize PFC. The ASN is designed to control the direction of the power flow (charging or discharging). In addition, it works in a PWM manner to help in boosting the output voltage, which greatly expands its application range. Compared with the bidirectional buck-boost converter mentioned in
[32]
, the proposed topology has fewer components, a wider output voltage range and better quality in the input current. A single-phase full bridge bidirectional boost converter cascaded by a DC/DC converter is a commonly used topology in V2G applications. However, it needs larger electrolytic capacitors when compared with the proposed topology, which will limit the lifespan of the converter. In addition, it has the possibility of shoot-through faults due to the nature of the voltage-source converter. Therefore, the proposed converter has a higher reliability. This paper’s main objective is to present the principles of charging and discharging with buck-boost modes and to verify the feasibility of the proposed topology, modulation scheme and control algorithm.
This paper is organized as follows: Section II introduces the topology, the operation modes and the averaged switching modeling of the proposed converter. Section III presents the modulation scheme and the control algorithm. Section IV analyzes the semiconductor losses. Section V shows simulation and experimental results to validate the capabilities of the proposed converter. Finally, the main points of this paper are summarized in Section VI.
II. TOPOLOGY AND MODELING
- A. Topology
The topology of the proposed single-phase current-source bidirectional converter is shown in
Fig. 1
. It consists of an
LC
input filter, a conventional SCSR and an ASN. For the reverse voltage blocking capability, each IGBT in the SCSR is connected with a diode in series. Under normal operation switches
S
1
and
S
3
are complementary; the same restriction is applied to
S
2
and
S
4
. The ASN includes two IGBTs, two diodes, an inductor
L
dc
and a capacitor
C
o
, which is the key part of the system. Its main function is to change the direction of the power flow and converter voltage.

- B. Operating Modes of the Proposed Topology
According to the characteristics of the CSR, the dc current
i
dc
cannot be reversed. However, by controlling the ASN, the direction of the current flowing through the battery can be changed to achieve charging and discharging functionalities.
Fig. 2

Under the charging operation,
ug
and
ub
are the input and output voltages, respectively, and the operating modes alternate between mode I and mode II. In mode I, switches
S
5
and
S
6
are in the off state, diodes
D5
and
D6
are forward-biased and the battery absorbs energy. In mode II, switch
S
5
is in the on state and a corresponding diode
D6
is forward-biased, which disconnects the battery from the circuit. The ASN works as a boost circuit and the system is a buck-boost converter. Therefore, the scope of its application is expanded when compared to the conventional SCSR.
Under the discharging operation,
ub
and
ug
are the input and output voltages, respectively, and the operating modes alternate between mode Ⅲ and mode Ⅳ. In mode Ⅲ, switches
S
5
and
S
6
are in the on state, diodes
D5
and
D6
are reverse-biased and the battery supplies energy. Mode Ⅳ plays the role of freewheeling. The ASN works as a buck circuit and the system is still a buck-boost converter.
- C. Averaged Switching Model
By replacing the converter switches with controlled voltage and current sources, the averaged switching model, as shown in
Fig. 3
, can be derived from
Fig.1
. According to
Fig. 3
, the state space average model for the proposed converter is formulated as follows:

III. MODULATION AND CONTROL
- A. Modulation Scheme
Assume that
ug
=
U
sin(
ω
t), and that
U
and
ω
represent the grid voltage magnitude and the angle frequency, respectively. In order to obtain a sine grid current with a unity power factor, according to (2), the following equation should be satisfied in the steady state:
where,
I
is the amplitude of the input current. If
I
is greater than zero, the system works in the charging status; else the system works in the discharging status.
For satisfying the volt-second balance of the inductor
L
dc
, according to equation (3), equation (6) can be obtained (ignoring the effect of the input filter) as follows:
where, -1≤
d
r
,
d
b
≤1. It is clear that the value of the battery voltage can be larger or smaller than that of the grid voltage. As a result, the charging/discharging operation under buck/boost mode can be realized.
According to (5) and (6), there is one degree of freedom available. Therefore there are lots of methods to accomplish the control task mentioned above in theory. In this context,
i
dc
is controlled to be a constant and dr is controlled to vary with a sine shape, as shown in (7).
where
c
is the modulation index, and sgn() is the sign function.
i
*
dc
is the reference dc current. (
i
*
dc
/
idc
) is an extra compensation term to improve the dynamic responses of the duty cycle to prevent distortion of the grid current. In particular, when the grid voltage
ug
is near the zero-crossings under the charging operation, the power losses of the circuit and switches are more than the grid can supply. As a result, the current cannot be maintained as a constant and the energy stored in the inductor will be released. Finally, the dc current drop occurs. It should be noted that the duty ratio
d
r
cannot saturate and the current
idc
cannot drop to zero, or distortion will occur. Therefore, the value of the inductor
L
dc
should be large enough. In the discharging operation, the power losses are always provided by the battery and the current drop will not occur.
From (5) and (7),
I
,
c
and
idc
satisfy the restriction |
I
|=
c
·
idc
. Taking the power losses into account, a minimal
idc
is expected. Therefore, according to (6) and (7), c can be given by:
where, min() is the minimum function.
According to (6),
db
can be obtained as follows:
In this paper, for minimizing the power losses the combination of switches is restrained further as follows: if
d
r
>0,
d
1
=1; otherwise,
d
2
=1. If
I
>0,
d
6
=0; otherwise,
d

=1. Therefore, the duty ratio of each switch can be determined as shown in
Table I
.

- B. Cntrol Algorithm
A control diagram for realizing the charging/discharging is shown in
Fig. 4
. To improve the reliability and reduce the cost, only the grid voltage, the battery terminal voltage and the current through the inductance
Ldc
are sampled. To regulate the current through the inductor, a control scheme including feed-forward control and PI feedback control is presented. The feed-forward control compensates the effects of the grid voltage directly, which increases the dynamic response of the current control. The PI control will help to stabilizing the system and handle some unknown disturbance. A simple open-loop control is used for modifying
d
r
to obtain a sine grid current and to realize PFC.

- C. Switching Pattern Arrangements
The performance of the converter depends on both the modulation strategy and the switching pattern arrangement. In this paper, reducing the switching power losses and output current ripple are the main consideration when arranging the switching pattern. Therefore, a symmetrical switching pattern is usually applied
[20]
. Both the front-end switching pattern and the rear-end switching pattern need to be arranged. In addition, coordination control between the front-end switching pattern and the rear-end switching pattern is required.
In this paper, the in-phase carrier PWM modulator is adapted under the charging operation, and the interleaved carrier PWM modulator is adapted under the discharging operation.
Fig. 5
illustrates the specific operation of each switch in each switching period. An example is given in
Fig.6
to show the changes of the voltage across inductor
L
and the dc current
idc
. Here the voltage drops across the IGBTs and the diodes are neglected. From
Fig.6
the switching patterns are bilaterally symmetrical, and twice commutations occur in each switching period.

IV. LOSSES ANALYSIS
The power losses calculation of a power converter is crucial since it influences the design of the cooling system of power electronic equipment and is associated with the efficiency of the converter
[33]
. Usually, the power losses during the off-state can be neglected since they are considerably low when compared to the amount of the total conduction losses and switching losses. Therefore, the two main kinds of power semiconductor losses are considered here: conduction losses and switching losses. According to
[33]
,
[34]
, the computational formulas for the conduction losses and switching losses are expressed as:
where
Pc-S
is the conduction loss of the IGBT,
Pc-D
is the conduction loss of the diode,
Psw
is the switching loss of the IGBT or diode,
T
is the period of the integrated function,
f
S
is the switching frequency,
VCE0
and
VF0
are the forward voltages when the current is zero,
rCE
and
rF
are the incremental resistances of the IGBT and the diode,
iT_avg
and
iD_avg
are the average of the currents flowing through the IGBT and diode,
iT_rms
and
iD_rms
are the RMS of the current flowing through the IGBT and diode,
ESWR
is the switching energy at the loss reference conditions (V
R
and I
R
). For the IGBT,
ESWR
represents the turn-on energy
Eon_T
and the turn-off energy
Eoff_T
; for the diode,
ESWR
is typically caused by the reverse recovery losses
Err_D
.
According to the previously mentioned modulation scheme, it can be seen that the charging operation and discharging operation have the same switching losses and only the conduction losses are slightly different. To avoid repetition, only the losses under the charging operation are calculated. Due to symmetry, only the losses during the positive half cycle are taken into account and the results of the loss analysis are summarized in
Table II
. Note that the reverse voltage across diode
D4
is negative in the turn-off process. As a result, there is no turn-off loss happening to
D4
. A similar analysis can be applied to
S2
.

The total conduction losses
Pc_front
and the total switching losses
Psw_front
of the front-end SCSR can be expressed as:
The total conduction losses
Pc_rear
and the total switching losses
Psw_rear
of the rear-end ASN can be expressed as:
The total losses are given by:
According to the foregoing calculation results, the larger the dc current
i
dc
is, the greater the semiconductor losses become.
Fig. 7
shows the efficiency variation as a function of the battery voltage when the grid voltage is 90V/150V and the dc current
idc
is 4A/10A. As can be seen, the efficiency at
U
=150V is higher than the efficiency at
U
=90V under the same battery voltage conditions. Their maximum efficiency is larger than 87% and 92% relatively, and it is more effective when the grid voltage is near the battery voltage. When
i
dc
is 4A, the amplitude of the grid voltage is 90V and the battery voltages are 60V and 120V. According to the power analyzer, the measured efficiencies of the converter are 77% and 83%. From
Fig.7
, it can be seen that the measured efficiencies are slightly smaller than the theoretical efficiencies (83.32% for
u
b
=60V, 87.47% for
u
b
=120V) since the losses caused by the passive components are taken into consideration in the experiments.

V. SIMULATION AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS
- A. Simulation
To validate the proposed topology and method, simulations based on the Matlab/Simulink environment are implemented in this section. The models of the semiconductor devices and battery are from the SimPowerSystems/Power Electronics library. A schematic diagram of the single-phase currentsource bidirectional converter in the simulation is shown in
Fig. 1
. The parameters used in the simulation are listed in
Table III
. The loads are 40Ah capacity lead-acid batteries with two different nominal voltages: 60V and 120V, respectively.

, the battery voltage

and the battery current

are sequentially displayed. The simulation starts with the charging operation and is changed to the discharging operation at 0.03s. It can be clearly seen that in the charging mode, the grid currents are in phase with the grid voltages, while in the discharging mode, the input currents and the grid voltages are out of phase by 180˚. An interesting phenomenon can be found in the fact that the inductor current is distorted near the grid voltage zero-crossing region in all of the charging modes, even though it is designed to be controlled as a constant value. The reason is that the forward voltage drop of the IGBTs and diodes makes the inductor current lose control when the input voltage is smaller than the sum of the voltage drops due to the semiconductor devices in the proposed converter. Though the inductor current is distorted, it does not affect the input current due to the real-time compensation of
d
r
. In addition, in the discharging mode, as the battery is a constant voltage source, it can overcome the forward voltage and keep the inductor current constant. As a result, the inductor current is controlled well without distortion. In conclusion, the input current is in phase with the input voltage, and it is close to a unity power factor, and the input current is sinusoidal in all of the modes.

- B. Experiments
A prototype for the proposed converter is built in the lab for experimental verification, as shown in
Fig. 9
. The parameter settings are the same as those in the simulation. The IGBTs used in the main circuit are 1MBH60D-100, and the fast recovery diodes are DSEI30-12A. The microprocessor of the converter was realized by a combination of a TM
S
3
20F28335 digital signal processor and a field programmable gate array EP2C8T144C8N FPGA. Two groups of lead-acid battery packs are used in this experiment, and their specifications are 60V/20Ah and 120V/20Ah, respectively.

The experimental results presented in
Fig.10
show the performance of the single-phase current-source bidirectional converter operating with battery voltages of 60V and 120V. The reference output current is always set to 4A.
Experimental results. (a) Grid voltage, grid current, battery voltage and charging current in charging mode when battery voltage is 60V. (b) Output voltage and dc current in charging mode when battery voltage is 60V. (c) Grid voltage, grid current, battery voltage and charging current in discharging mode when battery voltage is 60V. (d) Output voltage and dc current in charging mode when battery voltage is 60V. (e) Grid voltage, grid current, battery voltage and charging current in charging mode when battery voltage is120V. (f) Grid voltage, grid current, battery voltage and charging current in discharging mode when battery voltage is 120V.
Fig. 10
(a) illustrates the grid voltage, the grid current, the battery voltage and the charging current in the charging mode when a lead-acid battery pack of 60V/20Ah is connected to the converter. It can be found that the grid current is sinusoidal and in phase with the grid voltage.
Fig. 10
(b) and
Fig. 10
(d) show the measured waveforms of the output voltage and dc current in the charging mode and the discharging mode, respectively. As can be seen, in addition to being near the zero-crossings of the grid voltage when charging, the dc current tracks its reference well with a small ripple. This indicates that the switching patterns used in this paper work well. As can be seen from
Fig. 10
(a) and
Fig. 10
(b), due to the fact that the compensation tho
ug
h the dc current drop occurs, the distortion does not occur to the grid current. To feed energy back to the grid, the converter should operate in the discharging mode, and the experimental results are illustrated in
Fig. 10
(c). Since the battery provides energy back to the grid, the grid current is sinusoidal and in phase opposition to the grid voltage.
To verify that the proposed topology has a large output voltage range, a lead-acid battery pack of 120V/20Ah is connected to the converter.
Fig. 10
(e) and
Fig. 10
(f) show the experimental waveforms. As can be seen, the experimental results are in good agreement with the simulation results. It can be concluded that the high quality of the input current and high performance of the charging and discharging are easily obtained under the charging/discharging operation.
VI. CONCLUSIONS
This study presents a single-phase current-source bidirectional converter topology which is suitable for an interface in a V2G system. The proposed converter can work in buck-boost charging/discharging operation, and offers different voltage levels that are appropriate for charging/discharging the batteries. In this paper, the output current is controlled as a constant. The feed-forward control is necessary to ensure the grid current quality. The coordinated control of the front-end switching pattern and rear-end switching pattern is used to reduce the current ripple. The semiconductor losses are also analyzed in detail. In conclusion, the proposed converter has a number of attractive features, such as a simplified topology, a bidirectional power flow, reliability and a wide output voltage range, and it is a good candidate for V2G applications.
