DIFFERENT TYPES OF CONTROLLERS DEVELOPED


CONTROL FRAMEWORK DESIGN

Design of complete, application-specific control architectures by selecting and integrating appropriate control strategies, including PI, PR, LQR, RST, MPC, and other advanced controllers. Each framework is tailored to the converter topology, operating modes, performance requirements, and customer specifications, ensuring a cohesive control structure with appropriately coordinated control loops and reference frames.

PI
Proportional-Integral Controllers (PI)
  • Anti-windup for the integral terms
    • Clamping (conditional integration)
    • Back-calculation
  • Saturation protection
SOGI
Second-Order Generalized Integrators (SOGI)
PR
Proportional-Resonant Controllers (PR)
TOGI
Third-Order Generalized Integrators (TOGI)
LQR
Linear Quadratic Regulator Control (LQR)
PLL
Phase-Locked Loops
  • Classical and SOGI-based synchronous reference frame (SRF-PLL)
RST
RST Control
  • The most generalized pole-placement controller structure
AI
Anti-islanding Techniques
  • Based on signal injection
