摘要
This paper proposes a modified proportional-integral(PI)controller and compares it with a proportional-resonant(PR)controller.These controllers are tested on a three-phase direct matrix converter(MC).The modified PI controller involves current feedforward together with space vector modulation(SVM)to control the MC output currents.This controller provides extra control flexibility in terms of the current error reduction,and it gives improved steady-state tracking performance.When the coefficient of current feedforward is equal to the load resistor(K=R),the steady-state error is effectively minimized even when regulating sinusoidal variables.The total harmonic distortion is also reduced.In order to comparatively evaluate the modified PI controller,a PR controller is designed and tested.Both the modified PI and PR controllers are implemented in the natural frame(abc)in a straightforward manner.This removes the coordinate transformations that are required in the stationary(αβ)and synchronous(dq)reference frame based control strategies.In addition,both controllers can handle the unbalanced conditions.The experimental and simulation results verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed controllers.
