This work proposes the study and implementation of resonant controllers applied to photovoltaic panels grid-tied by a Zeta converter. This converter is designed to synthesize a rectified sinusoidal waveform current with low-harmonic content. Operating in discontinuous conduction mode, the Zeta Converter is connected to a full-bridge inverter so that one semi-cycle of the output current is inverted for every cycle of the power grid voltage, allowing the connection of PV panels to the power grid. The assembly formed by PV panel and inverter is known as Module-Integrated Inverter (MII). By aiming the project of resonant controllers, an analysis of the Zeta converter is presented, including its state-space model proposed in previous works. Furthermore, fundamental robust control concepts involved on the resonant controllers project are presented. In order to determine the gains of the resonant controllers, a formulation based on Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) that guarantees the stability and performance of the closed-loop system is presented. A state-observer is also designed, reducing the number of variables that must be measured. Finally, the developed control strategy is validated through computational simulations and laboratorial tests on a prototype specially developed to this purpose. The results obtained by the experimental results validated the purpose, confirming the viability of using resonant controllers for this application, in order to synthesize a sinusoidal current waveform with low-harmonic content, synchronized with the power grid.
