Transputer based current-forced control of a reversible rectifier

At the present state of technology the PWM reversible rectifier offers a practical route to high-quality conversion of AC to DC. The control schemes for a reversible rectifier have been the subject of intensive study. The authors present a digital implementation of a current-forced control scheme using a transputer. A control algorithm suitable for real-time control is introduced and a programming model using OCCAM is utilised. Experimental results are presented to demonstrate the performance of the proposed control scheme
