First, the technique without network voltage sensor with a direct power control based on a switching table, which is a classic approach, is discussed and its performance is analyzed under increasing and decreasing load. In addition, the performance of the proposed technique is also analyzed under the same circumstances and their performance is compared. Originality.

This paper deals with controlling a grid-connected dual-active bridge multilevel inverter for renewable energy integration. The concept of direct power control is integrated with model predictive control algorithm, which is termed as predictive direct power control, to control the real and reactive power injected into the power grid. The proposed multilevel inverter allows more options of feasible voltage vectors for switching vector selections in order to generate multilevel outputs, and thereby obtaining high power quality in the power grid. By using the predictive direct power control, simulation results show that the proposed multilevel inverter produces lower power ripple and manage to achieve currents with low total harmonic distortion which are well within the IEEE standard. The modeling and simulation of the system are implemented and validated by MATLAB Simulink software.

In order to improve the dynamic performance, based on the analysis of the dynamic model of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG), this paper presents an improved direct power control strategy which is based on the direct control of stator active and reactive power of DFIG. The proposed method only utilizes the estimated stator flux by the stator resistance which is the only machine parameter, so as to remove the power dithering resulting from the inaccuracy associated with rotor flux estimation. In the Matlab/Simulink, simulation results for a 15KW DFIG system demonstrate the high accuracy and excellent dynamic performance during variations of active and reactive power, and revolution.

This paper presents a comprehensive and systematic approach in developing a new switching look-up table for direct power control (DPC) strategy applied to the three-phase grid connected three-level neutral-point clamped (3L-NPC) pulse width modulated (PWM) rectifier. The term of PWM rectifier used in this paper is also known as AC-DC converter. The approach provides detailed information regarding the effects of each multilevel converter space vector to the distribution of input active and reactive power in the converter system. Thus, the most optimal converter space vectors are able to be selected by the switching look-up table, allowing smooth control of the active and reactive powers for each sector. In addition, the proposed DPC utilizes an NPC capacitor balanced strategy to enhance the performance of front-end AC-DC converter during load and supply voltage disturbances. The steady state as well as the dynamic performances of the proposed DPC are presented and analyzed by using MATLAB/Simulink software. The results show that the AC-DC converter utilizing the new look-up table is able to produce almost sinusoidal line currents with lower current total harmonic distortion, unity power factor operation, adjustable DC-link output voltage and good dynamic response during load disturbance.

This paper explores the feasibility of multilevel dual-active bridge-inverter (DABMI) applications for grid-connected applications of a modern Model of Predictive Direct Power Control (MPDPC) based on the conservative power theory (CPT). In the case of unbalanced grid voltages, the objective of the study is to promote continued active and reactive energy in MPDPC without reducing efficiency such as transient response and current harmonics. The nature of the instantaneous p-q theory permits only one out of three control targets to be fulfilled. The proposed control approached directly regulates the instantaneous active and reactive power to achieve three particular control objectives namely sinusoidal and symmetrical grid current, cancelling twice of fundamental grid frequency reactive power ripples, and removing twice grid frequency active power ripple. The techniques of complicated Grid part sequence extraction are unnecessary and improved at no extra expense, as is the case with current MPDPC fault-tolerant approaches. The instantaneous power at the next sampling instant is predicted with the newly developed discrete-time model. Each possible switching state will then be evaluated in the cost function defined until the optimal state which lead to the minimum power errors is determined. In MATLAB/Simulink simulation, the proposed CPT-based MPDPC measures reliability and performance at balanced and unbalanced grid voltages then compared with the conventional and existing MPDPC The proposed method manages to achieve all of three control targets which generates sinusoidal grid currents and attenuates active and reactive power ripple of twice the grid frequency exactly at the same time without losing its critical efficiency including transient reaction and current harmonics.

This paper presents the Direct Power Control (DPC) strategy for Multilevel Multistring Inverter fed Photovoltaic (PV) system to control the instantaneous active and reactive power. The proposed system consists of PV strings, boost converter and three phase three level cascaded H-bridge (CHB) inverter. In multistring topology, each PV string is connected to the dc/dc converter and the distributed MPPT control algorithm is connected to the central inverter. The Space Vector Modulation (SVM) based DPC approach is used to obtain the constant switching frequency and reduced power ripple. The detailed model of the proposed system is developed in Matlab to evaluate the performance. A laboratory based prototype of the proposed system is developed to realize the system in real time. dSPACE DS1103 is used as the control interface to perform the real time implementation (RTI). Power Quality Analyser (PQ-Box 200) is used to analyse the system parameters like voltage, current and Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) of inverter. The effectiveness of the proposed system has been validated with the help of simulation and the experimental results.

Nowadays three-phase power factor correctors (PFC) became widely used. This is dictated by strict requirements of the international electrical technical commission standards to harmonic composition of current supplied by three-phase industrial network.

Further, the proposed technique performance is also analyzed under the same circumstance and its performance is compared with the traditional method. The proposed technique has numerous advantages over the conventional method such as constant switching frequency, better active and reactive power control, good regulation of dc bus voltage, and enhanced power quality performance. As the proposed approach utilizes VF, DB-PC, and SVPWM techniques, this ensure line voltage sensorless approach, excellent control dynamics and constant switching frequency, respectively. At the end, experimental validation is done to confirm the supremacy of the proposed technique under load varying conditions and has a phenomenal performance under these circumstances.

This paper proposes a Virtual Flux Predictive Direct Power Control (PDPC) for a five-level T-type multi-terminal Voltage Source Converter High Voltage Direct Current (VSC-HVDC) transmission system. The proposed PDPC scheme is based on the computation of the average voltage vector using a virtual flux predictive control algorithm, which allows the cancellation of active and reactive power tracking errors at each sampling period. The active and reactive power can be estimated based on the virtual flux vector that makes AC line voltage sensors not necessary. A constant converter switching frequency is achieved by employing a multilevel space vector modulation, which ensures the balance of the DC capacitor voltages of the five-level t-type converters as well. Simulation results validate the efficiency of the proposed control law, and they are compared with those given by a traditional direct power control. These results exhibit excellent transient responses during range of operating conditions.
