Description
Summary:Railway power conditioners are widely adopted to improve Power Quality of electric railways. The present study focuses on the main architectures and the simplest, but effective, control method (PI controller): DC-link voltage and output current sequence are the controlled quantities and optimization is reached iteratively, showing the consequences of each choice. The final objective is to identify criteria that may be applied equally well to different compensator topologies.
