AbstractCurrent-type pulse-width-modulated (PWM) converter is regarded as one of the candidates for the superconducting magnet power supplies in next generation tokamak devices. However, this type PWM converter has a problem of the transient oscillation of the reactor current and capacitor voltage in an AC-side harmonic filter, which occurs owing to the LC resonance of the filter when the reference of the DC output current is changed rapidly. In this paper, the new PWM control method based on the deadbeat control theory is proposed to suppress the transient oscillation. The converter employing this method can control the reactor current and capacitor voltage in one sampling period under ideal conditions. In addition, the effect of dead time on the control is discussed. The performance of the newly proposed method is demonstrated through numerical circuit simulation.
