About this Research Topic
The main goal of the Research Topic is to share with the industrial and research communities of the most recent advances in control methods applied to energy conversion systems to improve their performance. Papers related to power converters for Smart Grid applications are also welcome.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Advanced control methods of three-phase and multiphase electric motor drives.
• Advanced control methods of power electronic converter, i.e. matrix converter, multilevel inverters.
• Power electronic converters for renewable energy applications, i.e. wind energy and photovoltaics.
• Power converters for grid-connected applications, i.e. active power filters.
• Recent advances in linear or nonlinear control techniques for power electronic converters and electric motors/generators.
• Modulation techniques of power converters.
• Fault-tolerant multiphase machines.
• Advanced control methods of grid integration by electronic power inverters.
Keywords: electric motor drives, nonlinear control, power electronic converters, renewable energy applications
