7.5 Executive summary for chapter 7<br />

The g<strong>en</strong>eral capabilities of the modulators introduced in the previous chapters are summarized<br />

and suitable topologies fitting the modulator schemes are listed. There is no single modulation<br />

scheme providing best performance regarding all criteria and in all operating points. In fact some of<br />

the modulation schemes nicely complem<strong>en</strong>t each other. A hysteresis control approach is proposed<br />

to make best use of all the available modulation schemes.<br />

The choice of modulators to be used within a hysteresis controller <strong>de</strong>p<strong>en</strong>ds also on the<br />

application. Differ<strong>en</strong>t basic applications are giv<strong>en</strong> and the suitability of the individual modulation<br />

schemes is evaluated.<br />

Experim<strong>en</strong>tal results show the functionality of those controllers. The limitations of some<br />

modulation schemes are also <strong>de</strong>monstrated. In a giv<strong>en</strong> operating point (reactive power at high<br />

modulation <strong>de</strong>pth), unconstrained DC CM injection cannot control the NP, the NP voltage drifts<br />

away to the next threshold, where 6 th harmonic injection is applied. The voltage is brought back to<br />

the set point. Wh<strong>en</strong> going to trapezoidal over modulation, the real time NP curr<strong>en</strong>t scheme does<br />

not work anymore, the NP voltage rise until it hits the threshold and the virtual vectors bring the<br />

NP voltage back to its set point.<br />

The NP control performance is compared for the differ<strong>en</strong>t modulation schemes in various<br />

operating points by applying a step function in the NP voltage refer<strong>en</strong>ce. The resulting step<br />

response is a very good measure for the NP control capacity. The performance of all the<br />

modulators could be verified for the crucial operating points. The virtual vector sequ<strong>en</strong>ces show<br />

best NP voltage control as expected for<br />

- reactive power at any modulation <strong>de</strong>pth<br />

- low modulation <strong>de</strong>pth at any load angle<br />

- high modulation <strong>de</strong>pth at any load angle<br />

Seamless operation of all consi<strong>de</strong>red modulators is highly crucial for the application of a<br />

hysteresis controller. This is also <strong>de</strong>monstrated experimantelly and smooth transitions betwe<strong>en</strong><br />

differ<strong>en</strong>t modulation schemes can be observed.
