About this book
Control of Power Electronic Converters, Volume Two gives the theory behind power electronic converter control and discusses the operation, modelling and control of basic converters. The main components of power electronics systems that produce a desired effect (energy conversion, robot motion, etc.) by controlling system variables (voltages and currents) are thoroughly covered. Both small (mobile phones, computer power supplies) and very large systems (trains, wind turbines, high voltage power lines) and their power ranges, from the Watt to the Gigawatt, are presented and explored. Users will find a focused resource on how to apply innovative control techniques for power converters and drives.- Discusses different applications and their control- Explains the most important controller design methods, both in analog and digital- Describes different, but important, applications that can be used in future industrial products- Covers voltage source converters in significant detail- Demonstrates applications across a much broader context

Abstract
This chapter investigates the control design of active rectifiers and their applications in power electronics-based power system. The harmonic emission and measures are firstly addressed as a basis of evaluating the active rectifier's effectiveness. Furthermore, the importance of new coming standards is highlighted. Application-oriented design of active rectifiers as a main reason behind evolvement of different topologies is discussed. Then, the main principle in designing different control schemes in single-phase and three-phase rectifiers is investigated, analyzed, and experimentally verified. The influence of nonideal operating conditions with possible solutions is addressed. Finally, future prospective of active rectifiers as a one of the key enabler of carbon-free power system is summarized.

13.1 Introduction
With a rapid advancement of power switching devices and digital signal processing units, power electronics technology has found its way into many applications of renewable energy generation, transmission, and consumption. Today, the global shift of energy paradigm to carbon-free technologies has made the role of the power electronics technology in power conversion process more essential. As a result, the penetration of grid-tied power electronics-based systems has dramatically increased. This not only intensifies the role of power electronics technology in power conversion process, but also implies that the power systems are undergoing a paradigm shift from centralized distribution to distributed generation.
Although power electronics systems are a key enabler as a cross-functional technology in the energy conversion process, their pulse energy conversion with inherent switching behavior exhibit disturbing harmonic emissions and electromagnetic noises. Thereby, the generated harmonic and noise disturbances should be controlled within specific limits by applying proper control scheme, topology, and filtering.
AC to DC converters as a front-end stage of most power electronics systems are the very first conversion stage tied to the power grid. Therefore, their harmonic emissions have a significant influence on the power grid quality, and can cause the power grid to operate in an unpredictable and undesirable fashion. Hence, they play a major role in accelerating deployment of modern power electronics applications.
Their basic function is to act as a rectifier by providing required DC voltage or current for the rear-end...
