“…PFC converters can be further classified into two fundamental categories: unidirectional and bidirectional topologies. The V IENNA rectifier is an example of unidirectional PFCs converters and can be found in [328]. The bidirectional PFC converters are also named active front-end converters and active rectifiers because, in addition to allowing sinusoidal currents and keeping the power factor close to the unit, they also allow power regeneration to the power grid, i.e., they can operate as rectifier or inverter [329].…”

Nowadays, new challenges arise relating to the compensation of power quality problems, where the introduction of innovative solutions based on power electronics is of paramount importance. The evolution from conventional electrical power grids to smart grids requires the use of a large number of power electronics converters, indispensable for the integration of key technologies, such as renewable energies, electric mobility and energy storage systems, which adds importance to power quality issues. Addressing these topics, this paper presents an extensive review on power electronics technologies applied to power quality improvement, highlighting, and explaining the main phenomena associated with the occurrence of power quality problems in smart grids, their cause and effects for different activity sectors, and the main power electronics topologies for each technological solution. More specifically, the paper presents a review and classification of the main power quality problems and the respective context with the standards, a review of power quality problems related to the power production from renewables, the contextualization with solid-state transformers, electric mobility and electrical railway systems, a review of power electronics solutions to compensate the main power quality problems, as well as power electronics solutions to guarantee high levels of power quality. Relevant experimental results and exemplificative developed power electronics prototypes are also presented throughout the paper.

“…Various control strategies concerning the power factor correction and neutral-point voltage balance have been presented for the Vienna rectifier, including hysteresis current control (HCC), proportional-integral (PI)-based voltage-oriented control (VOC), one cycle control (OCC), direct power control (DPC), and model predictive control (MPC). In particular, the HCC strategy has the drawback of the variable switching frequency that yields design complexity in the passive filter [6], [7]. In both VOC and DPC strategies [8], [9], the input The associate editor coordinating the review of this manuscript and approving it for publication was Tariq Masood .…”

In this paper, a finite-control-set model predictive virtual-flux control (FCS-MPVFC) for a three-phase Vienna rectifier is developed and implemented to achieve voltage sensorless control, which is very robust to distorted grid-side voltage operation. Firstly, by investigating the relationship between virtual-fluxes aroused from grid-side voltages and line voltages in d-q frame, the control object is directly associated with virtual-flux tracking error minimization. Secondly, the reference line virtual-flux is calculated based on the controllability of active/reactive power associated with the delay compensation and load angle. Thirdly, to enhance the steady-state performance, switching sequence rather than single switching vector is utilized during one sampling period. Furthermore, a redundant vector pre-selection is adopted to balance the neutral-point voltage. The proposed strategy is compared with the traditional finite-control-set model predictive current control (FCS-MPCC) method. Both simulated and experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control algorithm.
