Stationary frame current regulation of PWM inverters with zero steady state error

Current regulators for AC inverters are commonly categorised as hysteresis, linear PI or deadbeat predictive, with a further subclassification into stationary ABC frame and synchronous DQ frame implementations. Synchronous frame controllers are generally accepted to have a better performance than stationary frame controllers do, as they operate on DC quantities and hence can eliminate steady state errors. This paper establishes a theoretical connection between these two classes of regulators and proposes a new type of stationary frame controller, which achieves the same steady state performance as a synchronous frame controller. The new controller is applicable to both single phase and three phase inverters
