Improved Voltage-Vector Sequences on Dead-Beat Predictive Direct Power Control of Reversible Three-Phase Grid-Connected Voltage-Source Converters.

This paper presents a dead-beat predictive direct power control (DPC) strategy and its improved voltage-vector sequences for reversible three-phase grid-connected voltage-source converters (VSCs). The instantaneous variation rates of active and reactive powers, by applying each converter voltage vector in 12 different sectors, are deduced and analyzed. Based on the power variation rates, it is found that the values of the predicted duration times for the two conventional active converter voltage vectors are less than zero when the grid-connected VSC operates as either a rectifier or an inverter. In order to solve this issue, two new alternative vector sequences are proposed and compared. Experimental results on a 1.5 kW reversible grid-connected VSC system are presented to validate the feasibility of the proposed voltage-vector sequences on the dead-beat predictive DPC strategy.
