Current Phase Lead Compensation in Single-Phase PFC Boost Converters With a Reduced Switching Frequency to Line Frequency Ratio

摘要

Traditional design of the current loop controller in a single-phase power factor correction boost converter is not suitable for applications with higher line frequencies (up to 800 Hz) because of the zero-crossing distortion and high harmonic content due to the current phase lead effect. Increasing the control bandwidth and switching frequency in order to avoid this effect would reduce converter efficiency and is objectionable. The paper presents the leading-phase admittance cancellation (LPAC) technique, which improves the current-shaping control structure and eliminates the current phase lead without increasing the bandwidth requirement. The LPAC method extends the allowable line frequency range from 1/150 to 1/5 of the current loop bandwidth. The LPAC method is load-invariant and superior to other previously proposed methods. The LPAC network can be added to existing designs, which would require only two passive components in the simplest case
