Because of a lot of advantages, there are extensive motivations to utilize four-switch converters in industrial applications. Many modulation techniques have been proposed to design a good four-switch converter that is ...

In this paper, direct power control (DPC) method for voltage source converters is described, then a high performance constant switching frequency DPC technique for three-phase pulse-width-modulated (PWM) converters is ...

This paper presents a new direct instantaneous power control (DPC) strategy for active rectifiers. In this novel scheme the PWM modulator has been utilized instead of the hysteresis comparators and switching table. The ...

This paper describes a new wind turbine simulator for dynamic conditions. The authors have developed an experimental platform to simulate the static and dynamic characteristics of real wind energy conversion system. This ...

In this paper a simple and high performance power control strategy for four-switch three-phase converters is developed. Compared to already available control schemes, the proposed controller is very simple to derive and ...

This paper presents theory, simulation and experimental verification of a new direct power control (DPC) method in comparison with the conventional switching table based method. In the presented strategy, hysteresis ...

A new strategy in wind speed prediction based on fuzzy logic and artificial neural networks was proposed. The new strategy for fuzzy logic not only provides significantly less rule base but also has increased estimated ...
