Beloqui Larumbe, L. (author), Qin, Z. (author), Bauer, P. (author)A voltage imbalance at the AC terminals of a three-phase inverter creates a ripple in the power signal on the DC side. In order to minimize this ripple, several techniques can be applied, in which a double Synchronous Reference Frame (SRF) current control structure is very typical. In this approach, both the positive and negative sequence...conference paper 2020

Bandyopadhyay, S. (author), Qin, Z. (author), Bauer, P. (author)Multiactive bridge (MAB) converter is a promising solution for integrating multiple renewable sources, storage, and loads for various applications. However, the MAB converter is challenging to control due to the inherent coupling between the port power flows. To that end, this article presents a decoupling control strategy based on linear...journal article 2020

Purgat, P. (author), Bandyopadhyay, S. (author), Qin, Z. (author), Bauer, P. (author)This paper proposes a power flows decoupling controller for the triple active bridge converter. The controller is based on a full-order continuous-time model of the TAB converter derived using the generalized average modelling (GAM) technique. GAM uses the Fourier series expansion to decompose the state-space variables into two components,...conference paper 2020

Qin, Z. (author), Shen, Zhan (author), Blaabjerg, Frede (author), Bauer, P. (author)In dual active bridge (DAB) converters, there can be transformer current ringing, especially when the transformer turns ratio is high. It is induced by high dv/dt generated by fast switching as well as the low impedance of the magnetic tank at the high-frequency range. To quantify the influence of the magnetic tank, its impedance model is...journal article 2020

Output Impedance Modelling and Sensitivity Study of Grid-Feeding Inverters with Dual Current ControlBeloqui Larumbe, L. (author), Qin, Z. (author), Bauer, P. (author)In this paper, the output impedance of a three-phase inverter based on a dual current control (also called double synchronous reference frame current control) is modelled, which includes: the current loop gain, the control delay, and the Phase-<br/>Locked Loop (PLL). The impact of these parameters on the impedance is then analysed by a...conference paper 2019
