Description
Summary:[EN] The one-cycle current control is a non-linear technique based on the cycle-by-cycle calculation of the ON time of the power converter switches. Its application is not common in tracking fast-changing reference currents, due to the necessity of fast and accurate measurements, and high-speed computing. In a previous study, a one-cycle digital current controller based on the minimization of the integral error of the current was developed and applied to the control of a three-phase shunt active power filter. In the present work, the one-cycle controller has been improved by proposing a new switching pattern. It allows an easy implementation that reduces the critical computational cost and avoids the main drawbacks of the previous implementation. The controller has been applied in a three-leg four-wire shunt active power filter, including a stability analysis considering the proposed switching pattern. Simulated and experimental results are presented to validate the proposed controller.
