Abstract :
We present a model predictive controller for closed loop control of an active front-end rectifier. Our method operates in discrete-time and does not require additional modulators or external control loops. The key novelty of the control algorithm presented lies in the way dynamic references are handled. Simulation studies illustrate that fast and accurate tracking of dynamic dc-voltage and reactive power references can be achieved, while respecting restrictions on maximum power levels of the rectifier.
