Dynamic average-value modeling of direct power-controlled active front-end rectifiers
Active front-end (AFE) rectifiers are becoming widely used in medium-to-high-power adjustable speed drives (ASDs) to achieve regenerative operation and meet the energy efficiency and harmonic requirements. The typical control methods used with AFE rectifiers include voltage-oriented control (VOC), direct power control (DPC) and virtual-flux-based methods. This paper presents a dynamic average-value model (AVM) of the AFE rectifier system which is based on the voltage-sou
