Abstract

A fast and robust fixed switching frequency peak current controller for DC–AC converters is presented. The proposed method tends to mimic the switching behavior of pulse width modulation (PWM) techniques, so it features all the advantages of peak current controllers (such as simplicity, fast transient, and optimum dynamic response), with the superiority of fixed switching frequency and harmonic free output. The proposed method is a generalized approach that can be applied to different PWM schemes. The method is specifically elaborated for single-phase distributed generation applications, using various inverter topologies and mimicking different PWM schemes. Moreover, adaptive bands are proposed to provide active damping for the controller, to extend use of the proposed method for inverters with LCL output filters. Feasibility and performance of the controller is shown by means of simulations and experiments.
