In three-phase three-wire (3P3W) voltage-source converter (VSC) systems, utilization of filter inductors with deep saturation characteristics is often advantageous due to the improved size, cost, and efficiency. However, with the use of conventional synchronous frame current control (CSCC) methods, the inductor saturation results in significant dynamic performance loss and poor steady-state current waveform quality. This paper proposes an inverse dynamic model based compensation (IDMBC) method to overcome these performance issues. Accordingly, a review of inductor saturation and core materials is performed, and the motivation on the use of saturable inductors is clarified. Then, two-phase exact modelling of the 3P3W VSC control system is obtained and the drawbacks of CSCC have been demonstrated analytically. Based on the exact modelling, the inverse system dynamic model of the nonlinear system is obtained and employed such that the nonlinear plant is converted to a fictitious linear inductor system for linear current regulators to perform satisfactorily.

This paper deals with sliding mode control of converter and its application to distributed generation. Sliding mode control is used to control the voltage source converter in voltage or current control mode. Modeling and control of H bridge converter system using sliding mode control is proposed. Easily implemented sliding surfaces provide prominent dynamic characteristics against changes in the load and in the input voltage. Distribution static compensator (DSTATCOM) is used to control the voltage of the bus to which it is connected to a balance sinusoid in respect of the harmonic distortion in supply or load side. A variable wind turbine generator is used to produces a variable DC voltage which is placed as input voltage source to converter of DSTATCOM. A control strategy for grid voltage control using DSTATCOM in voltage control mode has been implemented in respect of the wind variation. The results are validated using PSCAD/EMTDC simulation studies.

In this paper, a novel hysteresis-based current control approach is presented. The basis of the developed control approach is the theory of switched systems, in particular, the system class of switched systems with multiple equilibria. The proposed approach guarantees the convergence of the state trajectory into a region around a reference trajectory by selective switching between the individual subsystems. Here, the reference trajectory is allowed to be time varying, but lies within the state space spanned by the subsystem equilibria. Since already published approaches only show convergence to a common equilibrium of all subsystems, the extension to the mentioned state space is a significant novelty. Moreover, the approach is not limited to the number of state variables, nor to the number of subsystems. Thus, the applicability to a large number of systems is given. In the course of the paper, the theoretical basics of the approach are first explained by referring to a trivial example system. Then, it is shown how the theory can be applied to a practical application of a voltage source converter that is connected to a permanent-magnet synchronous motor. After deriving the limits of the presented control strategy, a simulation study confirms the applicability on the converter system. The paper closes with a detailed discussion about the given results.

Based on the source used, there are several types of converters, one of which is a voltage source converter (VSC). In this study, using a converter that can work as an inverter. In industry, an inverter is useful for supplying the AC voltage source from industrial plants with DC sources, by varying the voltage and output frequency of the inverter. The method used is the HCCPWM generation method or Hysterisis Current Control Pulse Witdh Modulation. This method was chosen because it has several advantages which are good stability, very fast transient response and good accuracy. To activate HCCPWM, a 3 phase reference current signal is first made in the Matlab Simulink, this reference current is then compared with the actual current from the current sensor, then the error is controlled with the hysteresis band. In Arduino mega2560, the pulses generated by HCCPWM in the Matlab Simulink are converted into a duty cycle. The modulated pulse generated by the Arduino PWM pin will be increased using a gate drive circuit, so that the voltage is obtained according to the voltage required by the Mosfet to activate the switch. The results of the tests that have been done show that the voltage source converter (VSC) designed in this study has worked well as intended. This can be seen from the actual current from the current sensor which has been compared with the reference voltage using the HCCPWM method which is included in the Simulink Matlab program.
