A NEW METHOD OF FEEDBACK CONTROL FOR POWER INVERTER BASED ON A SINGLE VOLTAGE SENSOR

Lorenzo Ciani, Marcantonio Catelani, Mario Mancini, Enrico Simoni

Abstract

The main objective of static power inverters is to produce an AC output waveform from a DC power supply. These are the types of waveforms required in adjustable speed drives (ASDs), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), static VAR compensators (SVC), active filters, flexible AC transmission systems, and voltage compensators, which are only a few of the possible applications. For sinusoidal AC outputs, the magnitude, frequency, and phase should be controllable. The purpose of this research, in collaboration with Astrid Energy Enterprises, is to design and realize an innovative method of feedback control for inverter systems based on a single voltage sensor. This paper gives a detailed description of the system carried out and its potentiality as compared to the state of the art.
