B. Equivalent Circuit
Fig.6 shows the equivalent circuit of the Z-source inverter
shown in Fig. 5 when viewed from the dc link. When viewed
from the Z-source network, the inverter bridge is equivalent to
a short circuit when the inverter bridge is in the shoot-through
zero state, as shown in Fig. 7, whereas the inverter bridge
becomes an equivalent current source as shown in Fig. 8 when
in one of the six active states. Note that the inverter bridge can
be also represented by a current source with zero value (i.e.,
an open circuit) when it is in one of the two traditional zero
states. Therefore, Fig. 8 shows the equivalent circuit of the Zsource inverter viewed from the dc link when the inverter
bridge is in one of the eight non shoot-through switching
states.[2],[3]

the inverter bridge is in one of the eight non-shoot-through switching states.
The Fig.9 shows the simple boost control scheme for ZSI.
The output voltage of ZSI mainly depends on the shoot
through time T0 (dashed region). During active state time
T1 the capacitor in the Z-source provides stiff voltage to the
inverter.

VII. CONCLUSION
A Z-source inverter for wind energy conversion system
has been proposed and corresponding simulated waveforms
are verified. The Z- source inverter is specially suited for
above applications. With unique features like single stage
power conversion and improved reliability, the Z-source
technology can be applied to the entire spectrum of power
conversion. The output voltage of the ZSI entirely depends on
the shoot thro states. If we increase the shoot thro time
period we can get any desired voltage. The shoot thro time is
varied according to wind velocity.
