Performance Analysis of Three Levels Three Switches Vienna-Type Rectifier Based on Direct Power Control

The Vienna-type rectifier is broadly employed in various implementations thanks to realizable three-level operation, simple structure and controllable DC-link voltage. This paper proposes an adaptive proportional integral (PI) with anti-windup based direct power control (DPC) to improve dynamic response during load change, DC-link voltage step change and start up and to reduce current tracking errors. An adaptive PI with anti-windup DC-link voltage control is utilized to enhance dynamic response of the DC-link voltage and the instantaneous power because the PI regulator affected by the load change and system parameter variations. The PI based conventional power control is used to indicate the availability and accuracy of the proposed control strategy. The proposed control strategy performs outstanding performance and copes with vigorous disturbances in contrast to the conventional strategy. A detailed theoretical analysis of the proposed approach has been performed. Extensive case studies carried out by PSIM software are performed to validate the excellent behavior of the proposed control strategy.
