Switched repetitive controller design: an application to uninterruptible power supplies (UPS)

This paper presents a methodology for the synthesis of repetitive switched controllers to ensure the reference tracking of sinusoidal signals and the disturbance rejection on Uninterruptible Power Supplies - UPS. To improve both transitory and steady-state behavior of the output signal, we consider a state-space realization of a switched repetitive controller aiming two distinct operation conditions: transitory response (to improve the recovery time when the load is changed) and steady-state (to reduce the total harmonic distortion of the output signal when subjected to nonlinear loads). Based on a state-space framework, a state feedback is introduced to ensure the stability of the closed-loop when it is subjected to an arbitrary switching function. From a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, LMI conditions are derived to compute the stabilizing feedback gain. The dynamic behavior of the proposed control scheme is presented through simulation of a real UPS model subjected to non-linear loads.
