Abstract

This paper presents the design, modeling, implementation, and experimental results of an advanced current-sensorless control scheme for voltage source converter–power factor correction rectifiers. This proposal is aimed to reduce the complexity of the control while maintaining desirable features for ac/dc conversion, such as unity power factor, low total harmonic distortion in input current, continuous regulation of the dc voltage even facing ac voltage sags and dynamic load changes. Unlike other proposals, this scheme has a single feedback proportional-integral loop, uses few mathematical operations, and the dq 0 reference frame is not included in the control scheme. These characteristics simplify the implementation of the proposed control thus improving its efficiency. The theoretical analysis and simulation validate the technical feasibility of the proposed control, and finally, various cases of study and experimental results obtained with a laboratory scale-down prototype are presented to confirm the viability and performance of the control.
