Small-signal perturbation technique used for DSP-based identification of a three-phase three-level boost-type Vienna rectifier N. Bel Hadj-Youssef, K. Al-Haddad, H.Y. Kanaan and F. Fnaiech Abstract: New small-signal-modelling technique and validation procedures are applied to a three- phase three-level boost-type AC/DC Vienna converter. The adopted methodology consists of three steps: the first one is to elaborate the converter steady state and dynamic models that are derived by means of a local linearisation around the nominal operating point from the state space-averaged model, initially expressed in abc physical variables and then transformed into dqo synchronous reference frame. Twenty transfer functions relating the inputs to the outputs of the system are there- fore obtained. The second step is the numerical verification using the averaged state space model and the converter model built in SIMULINK/MATLAB. Finally, an experimental validation of the transfer functions is carried out using a 1.5 kW laboratory prototype on the basis of the DS 1104 real-time controller board of dSPACE. The results are quantified and compared as magnitude and phase Bode graphs. It is confirmed that the proposed new small-signal model represents rather accurately the real system and is therefore reliable for further tasks such as dynamic characteristic analysis, numerical simulation as well as controller design purposes. 1 Introduction works.
