Description
Summary:In this paper, a new switching table is presented for direct power control (DPC) of three-phase PWM rectifiers. The proposed switching table is synthesized by analyzing the instantaneous active and reactive power correction. For this reason, and based on the sign and magnitude of the change in instantaneous active and reactive power, the best converter switching state allowing smooth control of active and reactive power simultaneously during each sector is selected. The dc-bus voltage is maintained at the required level by controlling active power to be constant and equal to its reference value. The unity power factor (UPF) operation of the converter is achieved by maintaining the reactive power zero during all sectors. Simulation and experimental results have proven that the proposed DPC is much better than the classical one and verify the validity and performance of the presented DPC.
