Design and Implementation of Four-Switch Current Sensorless Control for Three-Phase PFC Converter

Abstract

Four-switch current sensorless control for three-phase four-switch converter with power factor correction (PFC) function is presented in this letter. In comparison with conventional multiloop control methods, the proposed control strategy requires sensing of two line voltages and two capacitor voltages only to achieve PFC function. As there is no sensing current, the proposed sensorless control scheme reduces the cost and complexity of design. The performance of the proposed control is validated by its implementation in digital signal processing (DSP) TMS320F28335, and the result shows that the proposed scheme is able to provide comparable PFC performance without sensing current.
