Abstract :
A switching-sequence-based control scheme for power electronics networks is presented in this paper. The proposed scheme guarantees global stability while meeting predefined performance criteria. First, using techniques based on composite Lyapunov functions and piecewise-linear models of the system, the set of switching sequences that guarantee global stability, is determined. Next, by solving optimization problems using predefined cost functions for the saturated (transient) and unsaturated (steady-state) regions of operation, the optimal switching sequence and the duration of time spent in it is determined. The application of the proposed scheme is demonstrated using a parallel-connected network of three-phase inverters.
