In this paper the design and implementation of a fuzzy logic-based controller is described for regulating the output voltage of a synchronous generator. An automated fuzzy logic-based control strategy is presented for controlling the armature voltage of a synchronous generator by varying the field current in real time. The fuzzy logic controller will take into account the voltage difference bet...

This paper presents the three topologies of three-phase four-wire DSTATCOM for reduction of harmonics, reactive power compensation, increasing power factor, which occur due to a nonlinear load, environment problem and polluted grid. The performances of the above topologies have been compared for the magnitude of source current, power factor improvement, DC-link voltage regulation, and total har...

The paper proposed an approach to study the power system voltage coordinated control using Linear Temporal Logic (LTL). First, the hybrid Automata model for power system voltage control was given, and a hierarchical coordinated voltage control framework was described in detail. In the hierarchical control structure, the high layer is the coordinated layer for global voltage control, and the low...

According to the switched-mode operation of the rectifi...

In this paper, a systematical controller design method for a two-stage grid-connected photovoltaic power conditioning system (PCS) is proposed. For a pre-stage boost converter to achieve the stable operation in the entire region of solar arrays (SAs), the digital resistive current (DRC) mode controller is proposed. This algorithm is very simple to implement with a digital controller and there i...
