    The generalized bode criterion: application to the dc voltage control of a three-phase photovoltaic grid-tied inverter
    (IEEE, 2019) Lumbreras Magallón, David; Barrios Rípodas, Ernesto; Urtasun Erburu, Andoni; Sanchis Gúrpide, Pablo; Institute of Smart Cities - ISC; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa
    As renewable energies are becoming more important in the electrical generation system, power electronic converters are facing new design issues related not only to their components but also to their control loops. In this context, the Generalized Bode Criterion (GBC) appears as a good tool to correctly determine stability and to help the controller design. In order to show the potential of the GBC and how it can be applied, this paper studies a dc voltage regulation with compensation of the photovoltaic power in a three-phase photovoltaic grid-tied inverter.

    Control design and stability analysis of power converters: the MIMO generalized bode criterion

    Three-phase dynamic systems and multiphase generators are frequently modeled and controlled in the synchronous reference frame. To properly model the cross-coupling terms in this reference frame, complex vector theory and transfer function matrices are commonly applied, obtaining multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) dynamic models. The stability of MIMO systems can be assessed through the Nyquist generalized stability criterion. However, the use of the Nyquist diagram complicates the controller design. The Bode diagram is a more intuitive tool for the controller design; however, the Bode stability criterion is not applicable to MIMO systems. In this article, the MIMO generalized Bode criterion is proposed. Since this stability criterion is based on the Nyquist generalized stability criterion, it can be applied to any system. Furthermore, it is simple to use, as it only requires information contained in the open-loop transfer matrix and the Bode diagram. The proposed stability criterion thus offers an interesting tool for the controller design procedure in MIMO systems, as it is shown in this article for two common applications: the current control loop of a power converter, a 2 × 2 system, and the current control loop of two independent power converters in parallel, a 4 × 4 system.
