A Novel SVPWM Technology Used in PWM Rectifiers of WPGS

In order to achieve the transformation of electrical energy in Variable Speed Constant Frequency (VSCF) Wind Power Generation System (WPGS), a novel Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) pulse trigger technology applied in high efficient PWM rectifier is proposed. Rectifier is an important part of WPGS and its performance affects the harmonic content and power factor of the power energy delivered to the grid. In order to improve the performance of PWM rectifier, a novel SVPWM pulse generator technology is proposed. Compared with other kinds of PWM pulse generator systems, Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) has many advantages such as clear physical concept, simple algorithm, suitable for digital implementation, high voltage utilization, low harmonic content, low switches losses and simple hardware circuit.
