Descrição
Resumo:For the controller design and stability analysis of power electronic converters, the Bode stability criterion and its subsequent revisions are the most practical tools. However, even though the control of the power converter is usually implemented in a microprocessor, none of these methods is infallible when applied to a discrete system. This article therefore proposes a new stability criterion, named the Discrete Generalized Bode Criterion (DGBC). This method is based on the Nyquist criterion but developed from the open-loop Bode diagram, evaluated also at 0 Hz and at the Nyquist frequency. The proposed criterion combines the advantages of the Nyquist and Bode criteria, since it is always applicable and provides an interesting and useful tool for the controller design process. The method is applied to design an active damping control of an inverter with LCL filter, showing how the proposed criterion accurately predicts stability, in contrast to the existing Bode criteria. The theoretical analysis is validated through experimental results performed with a three-phase inverter and an LCL filter.
