Abstract

Starting from the principle of instantaneous power theory, this article explores various direct power control (DPC) strategies for three-phase two-level pulsewidth modulation (PWM) converters. After summarizing the fundamental power formula of PWM rectifiers, this article studies the operating principle of the conventional table-based approach and its related improvements. It further looks into the advanced counterparts employing space vector modulation and different nonlinear control strategies. The emphasis is put on the prevailing predictive DPC. Besides, the voltage-sensorless and robust DPC methods based on the virtual flux concept and the state observer or estimator are investigated. Critical issues, including the sample delay, constant switching frequency, duty cycle optimization, objective function, and unbalanced operation are examined.
