What is Control of Power Electronic Converters with Microgrid Applications about?

In this chapter, AC-DC converter structures and their modulation (switching) techniques are discussed. In general, DC-AC converters are of two types: current source converter (CSC) and voltage source converter (VSC). The power circuits are slightly different (type and configuration of the semiconductor switches), but the energy conversion technique is the same. However, the main difference is how they are supplied on their DC sides. A CSC is supplied by a DC current source, while a DC input voltage supplies a VSC. The DC side of the CSC is realized by a controlled DC source that is connected to a large inductor in series. The presence of the inductor in a CSC makes it reliable and fault tolerant as the inductor can limit the rate of change in current during a fault. However, CSCs have higher losses and size due to the presence of the inductors. The VSCs, on the other hand, are supplied by either DC voltage sources (e.g. battery storage, photovoltaic, fuel cell, etc.) or by DC storage capacitors. These types of converters are more popular than CSCs and are more important for renewable energy integration. Henceforth, our discussion will be restricted solely to VSCs only. There are se
