AbstractThis paper presents a control system based on a repetitive controller to compensate for key power-quality disturbances,
namely voltage sags, harmonic voltages, and voltage imbalances,
using a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR). The control scheme deals
with all three disturbances simultaneously within a bandwidth. The
control structure is quite simple and yet very robust; it contains
a feedforward term to improve the transient response and a feedback term to enable zero error in steady state. The well-developed
graphical facilities available in PSCAD/EMTDC are used to carry
out all modeling aspects of the repetitive controller and test system.
Simulation results show that the control approach performs very
effectively and yields excellent voltage regulation.

I. INTRODUCTION

HE importance of power quality (PQ) has risen very considerably over the last two decades due to a marked increase
in the number of equipment which is sensitive to adverse PQ environments, the disturbances introduced by nonlinear loads, and
the proliferation of renewable energy sources, among others. At
least 50% of all PQ disturbances are of the voltage quality type,
where the interest is the study of any deviation of the voltage
waveform from its ideal form [1]. The best well-known disturbances are voltage sags and swells, harmonic and interharmonic
voltages, and, for three-phase systems, voltage imbalances.
A voltage sag is normally caused by short-circuit faults in
the power network [2], [3] or by the starting up of induction
motors of large rating [4]. The ensuing adverse consequences
are a reduction in the energy transfers of electric motors and the
disconnection of sensitive equipment and industrial processes
brought to a standstill. A comprehensive description of voltage
sags can be found in [5].

Harmonics are produced by nonlinear equipment, such as


electric arc furnaces, variable speed drives, large concentrations
of arc discharge lamps, and loads which use power electronics.
Harmonic currents generated by a nonlinear device or created
as a result of existing harmonic voltages will exacerbate copper
and iron losses in electrical equipment. In rotating machinery,
they will produce pulsating torques and overheating [6].
Voltage imbalances are normally brought about by unbalanced loads or unbalanced short-circuit faults, thus producing
overheating in synchronous machines and, in some extreme
cases, leading to load shutdowns and equipment failure.
The DVR is essentially a voltage-source converter connected
in series with the ac network via an interfacing transformer, which
was originally conceived to ameliorate voltage sags [7]. However,
as shown in this paper, its range of applicability can be extended
very considerably when provided with a suitable control scheme.
The basic operating principle behind the DVR is the injection of
an inphase series voltage with the incoming supply to the load,
sufficient enough to reestablish the voltage to its presag state. Its
rate of success in combating voltage sags in actual installations
is well documented [8], this being one of the reasons why it continues to attract a great deal of interest in industry and in academic
circles. Research work has been reported on DVR two-level [9]
and multilevel [10] topologies as well as on control and operation. The latter may be divided into several topics.
1) The configuration, whether two-level or multilevel, relates
to the availability, or otherwise, of energy storage [2], the
output filter [11], and the capacity to cancel out unbalanced
voltages in three-phase four-wire systems [12].
2) The voltage-sag detection. Several techniques have been
used to detect the instant of sag appearance, such as measurement of the peak value of the grid voltage. A comprehensive analysis of these techniques can be found in [13].
3) The control strategy. The DVR may be operated to inject
the series voltage according to several criteria, such as
minimum energy exchange with the grid. The three most
popular strategies to compensate voltage sags are [14]:
1) presag compensation. The injected DVR voltage is
calculated to simply compensate the load voltage to its
presag condition; 2) inphase compensation. The DVR
voltage is always in phase with the grid voltage; and 3)
optimal energy compensation. This strategy minimizes
the energy transfer between the energy storage and the
grid during steady-state operation. Although these are
the best well-known control strategies, many efforts are
being made to develop new ones to enable better DVR
utilization, as amply discussed in [15][18].

4) The design of the control law. The controller is normally


designed with some specific aims firmly in mind, such as
the kind of disturbances it should ameliorate, the velocity
of time response, error in steady-state, etc. Most of the
published work on DVR uses a simple proportional-integral (PI) control law implemented in a frame of reference
which rotates with the frequency of the grid voltage. This
basic approach is sufficient to enable voltage sag compensation, to warrant zero tracking error for the fundamental component, and to compensate certain kinds of unbalanced conditions. However, this simple control law is
insufficient when dealing with high-performance applications and more complex controllers are required [19], [20].
The former reference adds resonant control filters to the
existing PI control scheme in order to eliminate harmonic
voltages [21]. The main drawback of this structure is that
one filter is required for each harmonic to be eliminated if
the system is unbalanced, and only half that number if the
system is balanced. The latter reference takes the approach
of adding a feedforward loop to the feedback PI controller
in order to improve the control overall performance, taking
into account the time delay of the sampled system and the
DVR output filter constraints.
This paper focuses on the design of a closed-loop control
law for a two-level DVR, based on the so-called repetitive control, aiming at compensating key voltage-quality disturbances,
namely, voltage sags, harmonic voltages, andvoltage imbalances.
Repetitive control was first introduced in [22] to eliminate periodic disturbances and to track periodic reference signals with
zero tracking error. A detailed analysis of various repetitive control configurations is reported in [23]. The repetitive control was
originally applied to eliminate speed fluctuations in electric motors but it has since been adopted in a wide range of power-electronics applications. In [24], a repetitive controller is applied
to obtain an output voltage with low distortion in a constant
voltage, constant frequency three-phase PWM inverter. In [25],
a repetitive controller is used to achieve zero tracking error in
the output current of a three-phase rectifier in order to improve
its power factor. A more recent example is found in [26], where
a repetitive controller is used in a parallel active filter to cancel
out harmonic currents produced by a nonlinear load.
The repetitive controller presented in this paper has a wider
range of applicability; it is used in a DVR system to ameliorate
voltage sags, harmonic voltages, and voltage imbalances within
a bandwidth. Unlike other schemes, which also have a comparable range of applicability, only one controller is needed to
cancel all three disturbances simultaneously. The control structure contains a grid voltage feedforward term to improve the
system transient response, and a closed-loop control which comprises a feedback of the load voltage with the repetitive controller in order to warrant zero tracking error in steady state.
This paper is organized as follows. The DVR model is presented in Section II. The fundamentals of the control system
and the proposed control scheme are studied in Section III. The
modeling of the repetitive controller using the well-developed
graphical facilities available in PSCAD/EMTDC and simulation
results are presented in Section IV. The main conclusions of the
current investigation are drawn in Section V.

II. MODEL OF THE DVR-CONNECTION SYSTEM


A typical test system, incorporating a DVR, is depicted in Fig.
1. Various kinds of loads are connected at the point of common
coupling (PCC), including a linear load, a nonlinear load, and a
sensitive load. The series connection of the voltage-source converter (VSC) making up the DVR with the ac system is achieved
by means of a coupling transformer whose primary is connected
in series between the mains and the load. Although a passive LC
filter is normally used to obtain a switching-ripple-free DVR
voltage, in this paper, this filter is not considered in order to
fully assess the harmonic cancelling properties of the repetitive
controller.

The aim of the control system is to regulate the load voltage in


the presence of various kinds of disturbances. The control structure proposed in this paper is based on the use of a feedforward
term of the voltage at the PCC to obtain a fast transient response,
and a feedback term of the load voltage to ensure zero error in
steady state. The continuous time of the whole control system
represents the controller. If the

switching frequency is high enough, the DVR can be modeled
[20]. This
as a linear amplifier with a pure delay
delay is the sum of one-sample-period plus the time delay of the
inverter due to PWM switching. The former applies in cases of
microprocessor-based implementations [27] and the latter can
be taken to be half the switching period [20]. The transfer funcis equal to

IV. STUDY CASE


The power system depicted in Fig. 1 and the controller shown
in Fig. 3 have been implemented in PSCAD/EMTDC. Figs. 4 and
5 show the test system and the control system, respectively. The
test system is comprised of a 400-V, 50-Hz source which feeds
three different loads: 1) a squirrel-cage induction machine, 2) a
nonlinear load which consists of an uncontrolled three-phase rectifier with an inductive-resistive load, and 3) a three-phase sensitive load which consists of astarmadeup of a resistance connected
in series with an inductance in each phase. A two-level DVR is
connected between the PCC and the sensitive load by means of a

20-kVA coupling transformer with a unity turns ratio and a starconnected secondary winding. The voltage of the dc storage device is 650 V. The main parameters are summarized in Table I.

A. Controller Parameters
In order to design the parameters of the control system correctly, a nominal value for the expected time delay
must
be chosen. As the controller has been implemented by using
the continuous systems provided by PSCAD/EMTDC, the time
delay is only due to PWM switching. In this paper, a sinusoidal PWM scheme has been used to generate the switching
signals for the power converter, which consists of a three-branch
three-phase voltage-source inverter.
A controller has been designed for each phase by using a
coordinate system. The
reference frame
three-phase
is perhaps the most popular alternative to control load voltages
when operating under unbalanced conditions. Nevertheless, it
should be recalled that the repetitive controller also guarantees
zero-tracking error at zero frequency; the controller can be implerotating synchronously
mented by using a reference frame
with the fundamental frequency since the fundamental harmonic
transforms into a dc component in this reference frame.
The fundamental frequency was chosen as being equal to
50 Hz, while the switching frequency was set at 6.45 kHz in
which
order to obtain a frequency-modulation (FM) index
was large enough and an odd integer multiple of 3
(see [30] for more details). Hence, the estimated time delay was

B. Simulation Results
The scenario of the simulation is the one depicted in Fig. 4
where the simulation has been carried out as follows: the nonlinear load and the DVR are connected at
0 s. A two-phase
short-circuit fault is applied at the PCC from
0.2 s to

t< :

0.28 s via a fault resistance of 0.2 . This short circuit causes a


40% voltage sag in the two affected phases with respect to their
0.4 s
nominal values. The induction machine is connected at
with a constant rotor speed of 0.97 p.u. (the slip has a value of
%), while the nonlinear load is disconnected at
0.65 s.
The total simulation time is 0.8 s.
Fig. 7(a) shows the three-phase rms voltage across the sensitive load, while Fig. 7(b) shows the three-phase rms voltage
at the PCC. Initially, the rms value at the PCC is 385 V and
this falls to 270 V when the two-phase short-circuit fault is applied (note that during the time in which this fault is applied,
the three-phase rms value is not correctly calculated since the
fault causes unbalanced voltages which have been measured by
using the three-phase rms voltmeter block available in PSCAD/
0.4 s,
EMTDC). When the induction motor is connected at
the voltage at the PCC decreases to 330 V, causing a voltage sag
of 17.5% with respect to the nominal value. Finally, when the
0.65 s, the voltage at the
nonlinear load is disconnected at
PCC rises to 370 V. A comparison of Fig. 7(a) and (b) graphically shows that despite the many voltage variations at the PCC,
the DVR is able to provide the sensitive load with the necessary
voltage, maintaining an almost constant voltage level of 400 V.
Fig. 8(a) and (b) shows results only for the case in which the
nonlinear load and the sensitive load are connected. Notice that
only 0.08 s are plotted, although this case lasts for 0.2 s. Fig. 8(a)

whereas Fig. 9(a) and (b) shows the harmonic spectrums of the
line-to-line voltage at the PCC and across the sensitive load,

only counteracts the voltage drop but also cancels out the harmonic voltages caused by the nonlinear load. In this case, the
fundamental harmonic has an rms value of 399.63 V, while the

this harmonic distortion value is due to the high-frequency harmonics associated with the PWM process.
The results obtained when the two-phase short circuit occurs
are plotted in Figs. 1012. Since the fault causes unbalanced
voltages at the PCC, the three line-to-line voltages have been

plotted in Figs. 10 and 11. From


0.2 s to

fault is applied and causes an unbalanced voltage sag, while the
nonlinear load continues to cause harmonic voltage distortion.

Fig. 11 shows the three line-to-line voltages across the sensitive
load: a very fast DVR response is obtained owing to the feedforward term of the controller, and the two-phase short-circuit fault
is hardly noticed in the sensitive-load voltage. Furthermore, the
repetitive term of the controller guarantees zero-tracking error
in steady state. Hence, the control system and the DVR are able
to cancel all three different disturbances simultaneously (the
voltage sags, the unbalanced voltages, and the harmonic voltages). The fundamental-harmonic rms values of the line-to-line

of Fig. 8(b), which is due to the fact that the DVR supplies more
voltage to compensate the short-circuit fault as the voltage sag
is more severe and, therefore, the harmonic voltages caused by
the PWM are larger. The control outputs for the three branches
of the DVR voltage-source inverter are plotted in Fig. 12.

shown in Fig. 13, the DVR once again counteracts the voltage
sag and the low-frequency voltage harmonics, thus protecting
the sensitive load from these disturbances. The total harmonic
distortions for the voltages at the PCC and across the sensitive
load are 8.91% and 3.77%, respectively, while the fundamental
harmonic of the line-to-line voltage across the sensitive load has
an rms value of 400.17 V.

line-to-line voltage has an rms value of 370 V (92.5% of the

The control system and the DVR once again work properly,
thus compensating the voltage drop in the sensitive load. The
fundamental harmonic of the sensitive-load voltage has an rms
value of 399.78 V and the total harmonic distortion is 3.17%.

The use of dynamic voltage restorers in PQ-related applications is increasing. The most popular application has been on
voltage sags amelioration but other voltage-squality phenomena
may also benefit from its use, provided that more robust control
schemes than the basic PI controller become available. A case
in point is the so called repetitive controller proposed in this
paper, which has a fast transient response and ensures zero error
in steady state for any sinusoidal reference input and for any
sinusoidal disturbance whose frequencies are an integer multiple of the fundamental frequency. To achieve this, the controller has been provided with a feedforward term and feedback
term. The design has been carried out by studying the stability
of the closed-loop system including possible modelling errors,
resulting in a controller which possesses very good transient and
steady-state performances for various kinds of disturbances.
A key feature of this control scheme is its simplicity; only
one controller is required to eliminate three PQ disturbances,
namely, voltage sags, harmonic voltages, and voltage imbalances. The controller can be implemented by using either a
stationary reference frame or a rotating reference frame. In
this paper, the highly developed graphical facilities available in
PSCAD/EMTDC have been used very effectively to carry out
all aspects of the system implementation. Comprehensive simulation results using a simple but realistic test system show that
the repetitive controller and the DVR yield excellent voltage
regulation, thus screening a sensitive load point from upstream
PQ disturbances.
