Nonlinear Control of a Buck Converter Which Feeds a Constant Power Load
(Institute Of Electrical And Electronics Engineers, 2015-12)
In this paper a non-linear control strategy for controlling a dc/dc Buck converter feeding a constant power load is proposed. The main objective of the proposed controller is to improve the transient performance when in ...
A selective harmonic compensation and power control approach exploiting distributed electronic converters in microgrids
(2020-02-01)
This paper proposes an approach to obtain harmonic compensation and power control by exploiting the electronic power converters deployed in low-voltage microgrids. By the proposed approach, distributed harmonic current ...
Power Factor Correction Boost Converter Based on the Three-State Switching Cell
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2012-03-01)
The need for solid-state ac-dc converters to improve power quality in terms of power factor correction, reduced total harmonic distortion at input ac mains, and precisely regulated dc output has motivated the investigation ...
Interleaved Boundary Conduction Mode Versus Continous Conduction Mode Magnetic Volume Comparison in Power Converters
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2016-12)
Power converters operating in boundary conduction mode (BCM) can benefit from an efficiency increase compared to continuous conduction mode (CCM) based on the soft-switching transitions at turn-on and/or turn-off. However, ...
UPQC implemented with Cascade Asymmetric Multilevel Converters
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2015-07)
