Abstract
A key factor in the design of power electronic converters is the development of control systems and, in particular, the determination of their stability. Due to ease of application, the Bode criteria are currently the most commonly used stability criteria, both with regard to its classic version and to the subsequent revisions proposed in the literature. However, as these criteria have a limited range of applicability, on occasions it is necessary to resort to other universally applicable criteria such as the Nyquist criterion. Unlike Bode, the Nyquist criterion can always be applied, although its use considerably complicates the tuning of the controller. This paper proposes a new stability criterion, called Generalized Bode Criterion, which is based on the Nyquist criterion and, therefore, always applicable, but calculated from both the Bode diagram and the 0 Hz phase of the open-loop transfer function, thus making the criterion easy to be applied. This way, the proposed criterion combines the advantages of Nyquist and Bode criteria and provides an interesting and useful tool to help in the controller design process. The validation of the criterion is made on a voltage control loop for a stand-alone PV system through simulation and experimental tests made on a voltage control loop for a stand-alone PV system including a battery, a boost converter, an inverter and an ac load. The tests are also used to show the limitations of the classic Bode criterion and its revisions to correctly determine the stability of complex systems. IEEE
