The Repetitive Control for Dynamic Voltage Restorer

Abstract:

A novel control scheme for the dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is proposed to achieve fast response and effective sag and swell compensation capabilities. In this control scheme, the proportional integral control is used to guarantee system dynamic performance and the repetitive control is used to improve voltage waveform quality. Compared to classical proportional integral control, DVR based on this control scheme can restore load voltage almost sinusoidal and shows better transient and steady-state responses when facing sag or swell conditions. The proposed control scheme has been verified by simulation on Matlab. Simulation results show that the control approach performs very effectively and yields excellent voltage regulation.
