Hybrid power systems continuously deliver power to the load from several renewable energy sources. For such systems,the use of a multiple-input converter (MIC) has the advantage of simpler circuit structure and lower cost, compared to the use of several single-input converters. By decomposing converters into basic cells, namely, pulsating source cells and output filters, a set of basic rules for generating multiple-input converter topologies is proposed. Specifically, two families of multiple-input converters are systematically generated. In the first family of MICs, all the input sources can power the load simultaneously or individually.In the second family, only one power source is allowed to transfer energy to the load at a time. Furthermore, some isolatedMICs are simplified for reducing the complexity of the circuit configuration.
