TLDR
In this article, a predicted current control strategy with fixed switching frequency (PCFF control) is proposed for a PWM (pulsewidth-modulated) AC-to-DC converter, and experimental results show that the converter under PCFF control has bidirectional power transmission ability with high dynamic performance.
Abstract: 
For a PWM (pulsewidth-modulated) AC-to-DC converter, a predicted current control strategy with fixed switching frequency (PCFF control) is proposed. Its principle and implementation are described, and experimental results are provided which show that the converter under PCFF control has bidirectional power transmission ability with high dynamic performance. The line currents are close to sinusoidal with unit power factor. The PCFF control produces a better switching pattern than hysteresis current control. This results in a reduction of harmonics in the line currents and lower stress on the switching devices. >

A new mathematical model and control of a three-phase AC-DC voltage source converter

Abstract: A new mathematical model of the power circuit of a three-phase voltage source converter (VSC) was developed in the stationary and synchronous reference frames. The mathematical model was then used to analyze and synthesize the voltage and current control loops for the VSC. Analytical expressions were derived for calculating the gains and time constants of the current and voltage regulators. The mathematical model was used to control a 140-kW regenerative VSC. The synchronous reference-frame model was used to define feedforward signals in the current regulators to eliminate the cross coupling between the d and q phases. It allowed the reduction of the current control loops to first-order plants and improved their tracking capability. The bandwidths of the current and voltage-control loops were found to be approximately 20 and 60 times (respectively) smaller than the sampling frequency. All control algorithms were implemented in a digital signal processor. All results of the analysis were experimentally verified.
