ABSTRACT
A novel grid voltage modulated direct power control (GVM-DPC) strategy for a
grid-connected voltage source converter is proposed to control the instantaneous active and
reactive powers directly. The GVM-DPC method consists of a nonlinear GVM controller, a
conventional controller (feed forward and PI feedback), and nonlinear damping. The
proposed control strategy shows a relationship between DPC and voltage-oriented control
methods designed in d-q frame. The main advantage is that the proposed method makes the
system be a linear time-invariant system, which enables us to apply various control methods
easily. The GVM-DPC guarantees not only the convergence rate but also the steady-state
performance of the system. Moreover, it is ensured that the closed-loop system is
exponentially stable. Finally, simulation and experimental results using a 2.2-kVA VSC are
provided to validate the tracking performance and robustness of the proposed control
architecture. In addition, the total harmonic distortion of the current is 1.9% which is much
less than the requirement for grid operation.
