Abstract
A parallel DC-to-AC power inverter system is provided. The parallel DC-to-AC power inverter system has a first DC-to-AC power inverter electrically connected in parallel with a second DC-to-AC power inverter, and each of the DC-to-AC power inverters includes an input port, an output port, a switching circuit electrically connected between the input port and the output port responsive to inverter control signals to convert a DC voltage at the input port to a first AC output voltage, an inductor-capacitor filter electrically connected to the switching circuit for filtering the first AC output voltage to an AC output voltage at output port, and a controller module for detecting an inductor current at the inductor-capacitor filter to generate an AC inductor current signal, for detecting the AC output voltage at the output terminals and transforming the AC output voltage to generate a first AC reference current signal, for detecting a load current at output port to generate an AC load current signal, for generating a second AC reference current signal by adding the first AC reference current signal to the AC load current signal, for performing a numerical operation of the second AC refe…
