Title of the keynote speech: “Current Controllers for PWM Inverters”
A current controller is desirable in various demanding inverter applications such as AC drives, PWM rectifiers, active power filters, and renewable energy power generation systems. Various current control techniques have been developed for these purposes, i.e. hysteresis, linear, and predictive current controllers. Though it the most simpler and robust, high switching frequency of hysteresis current controllers have made the applications are rendered to low power. Linear current controllers can be implemented either in synchronous or stationary reference frames. In synchronous reference frame, the zero steady-state error can be ensured by using just simple PI controller. The price to be paid is the complexities of transformation from phase variables to dq variables and back again to phase variables. The fixed switching frequency has made this kind of current controller is the most popular for low and medium power applications. When the switching frequency is very low such as the case of high-power applications, predictive current controller can be the only option. Though the performance is the best, the predictive controller needs accurate information of the system parameters. In this short lecture, state of the art of various current controllers for voltage-source PWM inverters is described. The challenges and trends of current developments and applications are also discussed. Applications of virtual impedance that has been developed by the author are also mentioned.
