Abstract
The switching frequency is an important control parameter of pulse-width-modulation (PWM) rectifier to reduce switching losses and electromagnetic interference noise. This paper proposed a variable switching frequency PWM (VSFPWM) strategy for dc-link voltage ripple control in two-level rectifier. DC-link voltage ripple is determined by the dc-link current directly, and can be predicted synchronously with PWM signals. A real-time prediction model of dc-link voltage ripple is derived for a common voltage-oriented control PWM rectifier. Then, VSFPWM control is introduced, which changes the switching frequency cycle to cycle with a restriction of dc-link voltage ripple peak value. Furthermore, the dynamic behavior is also observed when the proposed VSFPWM control scheme is adopted. Detail simulation and experimental comparisons are carried out between VSFPWM and normal constant switching frequency PWM, which demonstrate the advantages of the proposed method.
