[0082] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the implementation methods of this application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0083] See Figure 1, which is a topological diagram of a current source converter, where v a 、v b 、v c is the current voltage of the three phases in the three-phase AC power, V dc is the DC voltage, V PN The DC output voltage of the bridge arm is , and the current source converter can convert three-phase AC power into DC power, thereby forming a DC bus.

[0084] FIG2 is a flow chart of a control method for a current source converter provided by an embodiment of the present application. Referring to FIG2 , the embodiment includes:

[0085] 201. Based on the current voltages of the three phases in the three-phase alternating current, determine the maximum phase, the minimum phase, and the middle phase.

[0086] In practice, the current voltage of the three phases in the three-phase AC power can be periodically detected, that is, v in FIG1 a 、v b and v c The maximum phase, minimum phase and middle phase are determined according to the absolute values ​​of the current voltages of the three phases.

[0087] Among the three-phase current voltages, the phase with the largest absolute value of the current voltage is the maximum phase, the phase with the smallest absolute value of the current voltage is the minimum phase, and the phase with the middle absolute value of the current voltage is the middle phase.

[0088] Referring to Figure 3, in an embodiment of the present application, the cycle of three-phase alternating current is divided into 12 sectors, namely sector 1, sector 2, sector 3, sector 4, sector 5, sector 6, sector 7, sector 8, sector 9, sector 10, sector 11 and sector 12 in Figure 3.

[0089] In sector 1, v c >va >0>v b ,|v b |>|v c |>|v a |, then the maximum phase is v b , the intermediate phase is v c , the minimum phase is v a .

[0090] In sector 2, v a >v c >0>v b ,|v b |>|v a |>|v c |, then the maximum phase is v b , the intermediate phase is v a , the minimum phase is v c .

[0091] In sector 3, v a >0>v c >v b ,|v a |>|v b |>|v c |, then the maximum phase is v a , the intermediate phase is v b , the minimum phase is v c .

[0092] In sector 4, v a >v b >0>v c ,|v a |>|v c |>|v b |, then the maximum phase is v a , the intermediate phase is v c , the minimum phase is v b .

[0093] In sector 5, v a >v b >0>v c ,|v c |>|v a |>|v b |, then the maximum phase is v c , the intermediate phase is v a , the minimum phase is v b .

[0094] In sector 6, v b >v a >0>v c ,|v c |>|v b|>|v a |, then the maximum phase is v c , the intermediate phase is v b , the minimum phase is v a .

[0095] In sector 7, v b >0>v a >v c ,|v b |>|v c |>|v a |, then the maximum phase is v b , the intermediate phase is v c , the minimum phase is v a .

[0096] In sector 8, v b >0>v c >v a ,|v b |>|v a |>|v c |, then the maximum phase is v b , the intermediate phase is v a , the minimum phase is v c .

[0097] In sector 9, v b >v c >0>v a ,|v a |>|v b |>|v c |, then the maximum phase is v a , the intermediate phase is v b , the minimum phase is v c .

[0098] In sector 10, v c >v b >0>v a ,|v a |>|v c |>|v b |, then the maximum phase is v a , the intermediate phase is v c , the minimum phase is v b .

[0099] In sector 11, v c >0>v b >v a ,|v c |>|v a |>|v b |, then the maximum phase is v c , the intermediate phase is v a, the minimum phase is v b .

[0100] In sector 12, v c >0>v a >v b ,|v c |>|v b |>|v a |, then the maximum phase is v c , the intermediate phase is v b , the minimum phase is v a .

[0101] The characteristics of these 12 sectors are: in any sector, the current voltage of the maximum phase is opposite to the current voltage of the minimum phase, and the current voltage of the maximum phase is also opposite to the current voltage of the middle phase.

[0102] 202. Determine a maximum corresponding first duty cycle based on the current voltage of the maximum phase.

[0103] In implementation, after determining the maximum phase, the maximum corresponding first duty cycle is calculated based on the current voltage of the maximum phase. The first duty cycle refers to the ratio of the conduction time of the maximum corresponding partial controllable switching device to the total duration of the switching cycle, wherein the maximum corresponding partial controllable switching device is the controllable switching device on the maximum corresponding upper bridge arm or the controllable switching device on the maximum corresponding lower bridge arm.

[0104] Since the first duty cycle is calculated based on the current voltage of the maximum phase, the maximum phase will be turned on in the middle of the switching cycle, and the on-time of the maximum phase is the time corresponding to the first duty cycle (that is, the product of the first duty cycle and the total time of the switching cycle).

[0105] The above-mentioned turning on of the maximum phase at the middle time of the switching cycle can also be understood as that in each switching cycle in the driving timing diagram, the driving signal of the maximum phase is symmetrically set relative to the middle moment of the switching cycle.

[0106] 203. Determine a second duty cycle corresponding to the middle phase based on the current voltage of the middle phase.

[0107] In implementation, after determining the middle phase, the second duty cycle corresponding to the middle phase is calculated based on the current voltage of the middle phase. The second duty cycle refers to the ratio of the conduction time of the part of the controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle phase to the total time of the switching cycle, wherein the part of the controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle phase are the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase or the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase.

[0108] Since the second duty cycle is calculated based on the current voltage of the middle phase, the middle phase will be turned on in the middle of the switching cycle, and the conduction time of the middle phase is the time corresponding to the second duty cycle (that is, the product of the second duty cycle and the total time of the switching cycle).

[0109] Turning on the middle phase at the middle time of the switching cycle can also be understood as that in each switching cycle in the driving timing diagram, the driving signal of the middle phase is symmetrically set relative to the middle moment of the switching cycle.

[0110] 204. Determine a minimum corresponding third duty cycle based on the middle corresponding second duty cycle.

[0111] Among them, the minimum phase and the intermediate phase complement each other.

[0112] In implementation, after the second duty cycle corresponding to the middle is determined, based on the principle that the minimum phase and the middle phase complement each other, the minimum corresponding third duty cycle is (1-second duty cycle).

[0113] The minimum phase will be turned on at the beginning and the end of the switching cycle, and the conduction time of the minimum phase is the time corresponding to the third duty cycle (that is, the product of the third duty cycle and the total time of the switching cycle), or it can be the difference between the total time of the switching cycle and the time corresponding to the second duty cycle.

[0114] The above-mentioned conduction of the minimum phase at the first time and the last time of the switching cycle can also be understood as that within each switching cycle in the drive timing diagram, the drive signal of the minimum phase is symmetrically located at both ends of the switching cycle, and the sum of the conduction time of the minimum phase at both ends is the time corresponding to the third duty cycle.

[0115] 205. Based on the current voltage of the three phases, the first duty cycle, the second duty cycle, and the third duty cycle, control the plurality of controllable switching devices in the current source converter to be turned on or off.

[0116] In implementation, after determining the first duty cycle, the second duty cycle and the third duty cycle, the multiple controllable switching devices in the current source converter can be controlled to be turned on or off based on the current voltage of the three phases, the first duty cycle, the second duty cycle and the third duty cycle.

[0117] In one possible implementation, the controllable switching device may be any one of an IGBT, a Mosfet, and a combination of an IGBT and a diode connected in parallel in opposite directions, or may be other reasonable switching devices, which is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0118] The beneficial effects of the control method of the current source converter provided by the present application are described in detail below:

[0119] In the related art, the duty cycle of the maximum phase and the minimum phase are typically calculated first, and then the middle phase and the minimum phase are complementary. Therefore, when a current source converter is operating, the maximum and minimum phases are turned on in the middle of a switching cycle, and the middle phase is turned on at the beginning and end of a switching cycle. Referring to FIG4 , at the beginning (time 0) of a switching cycle (0-T5 or T5-T10 in FIG4 ), the middle phase is in the on state. At time T1, the maximum phase is turned on. At time T2, the middle phase is turned off and the minimum phase is turned on. At time T3, the minimum phase is turned off and the middle phase is turned on. At time T4, the maximum phase is turned off. From time T4 to time T5, the middle phase remains in the on state until the next switching cycle begins, and the above process repeats. Among them, the duration corresponding to the duty cycle of the maximum phase is T1-T4, the duration corresponding to the duty cycle of the minimum phase is T2-T3, and the duration corresponding to the duty cycle of the intermediate phase is the sum of the duration of 0-T2 and the duration of T3-T5 (which is also equal to twice the duration of 0-T2 and twice the duration of T3-T5).

[0120] In the above control process, referring to FIG5 , during the 0-T1 process, since only the middle phase is turned on, a loop cannot be formed in the bridge arm. Therefore, the bridge arm DC output voltage V PN =0; at time T1, the maximum phase is turned on, and a loop is formed between the maximum phase and the middle phase. Therefore, at this time, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN Jumps from 0 to "line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase"; at time T2, the middle phase is disconnected and the minimum phase is turned on, forming a loop between the maximum phase and the minimum phase. Therefore, at this time, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN The line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase jumps to the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase; at time T3, the minimum phase is disconnected, the middle phase is turned on, and a loop is formed between the maximum phase and the middle phase. Therefore, at this time, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN The line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase jumps to the line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase; at time T4, the maximum phase is disconnected and only the middle phase is turned on, so a loop cannot be formed in the bridge arm. Therefore, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN It jumps from the "line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase" to zero.

[0121] Since the current voltage of the maximum phase is opposite to the current voltage of the minimum phase in the same sector, and the current voltage of the maximum phase is also opposite to the current voltage of the minimum phase, the line voltage formed between the middle phase and the maximum phase will be greater than the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase. Therefore, in the related art, the DC output voltage V PN As shown in FIG5 , a relatively large jump will be performed between zero and the “line voltage formed between the middle phase and the maximum phase”.

[0122] In the embodiment of the present application, the first duty cycle corresponding to the maximum and the second duty cycle corresponding to the middle are calculated first, and then the minimum phase and the middle phase are complementary. Therefore, when the current source converter is operating, the maximum phase and the middle phase are turned on in the middle of a switching cycle, and the minimum phase is turned on at the beginning and end of a switching cycle. Referring to FIG6 , at the beginning (time 0) of a switching cycle (0-t5 or t5-t10 in FIG6 ), the minimum phase is in the on state. At time t1, the maximum phase is turned on. At time t2, the minimum phase is turned off and the middle phase is turned on. At time t3, the middle phase is turned off and the minimum phase is turned on. At time t4, the maximum phase is turned off. From time t4 to time t5, the minimum phase is always in the on state until the next switching cycle begins, and the above process is repeated. Among them, the duration corresponding to the first duty cycle of the maximum phase is t1-t4, the duration corresponding to the second duty cycle of the middle phase is t2-t3, and the duration corresponding to the third duty cycle of the minimum phase is the sum of the duration of 0-t2 and the duration of t3-t5 (which is also equal to twice the duration of 0-t2 and twice the duration of t3-t5).

[0123] In the above control process, referring to FIG7 , during the period 0-t1, since only the minimum phase is turned on, a loop cannot be formed in the bridge arm. Therefore, the bridge arm DC output voltage V PN =0; at time t1, the maximum phase is turned on, and a loop is formed between the maximum phase and the minimum phase. Therefore, at this time, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN Jumps from 0 to "the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase"; at time t2, the minimum phase is disconnected and the middle phase is turned on, forming a loop between the maximum phase and the middle phase. Therefore, at this time, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN The line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase jumps to the line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase; at time t3, the middle phase is disconnected and the minimum phase is turned on, forming a loop between the maximum phase and the minimum phase. Therefore, at this time, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN The line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase jumps to the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase; at time t4, the maximum phase is disconnected and only the minimum phase is turned on, so a loop cannot be formed in the bridge arm. Therefore, the DC output voltage of the bridge arm V PN It jumps from the "line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase" to zero.

[0124] It can be seen that the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the present application can make the bridge arm DC output voltage V PNIt is only necessary to jump between zero and the "line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase", or to jump between the "line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase" and the "line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase". The amplitude of these two jumps is smaller than the amplitude of the jump between zero and the "line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase" in the related art. Therefore, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present application reduces the bridge arm DC output voltage V PN The jump amplitude is reduced, thereby reducing the voltage stress, ensuring good current waveform quality of the three-phase AC power, reducing the cost of the filter on the three-phase AC side, and improving the EMI performance.

[0125] In the embodiments of the present application, there are several methods for controlling the on or off of multiple controllable switching devices in the current source converter, which are described below:

[0126] The first control method:

[0127] In any switching cycle, when the corresponding controllable switching device in the middle is in the off state, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum or the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum is controlled to be in the on state; when the corresponding controllable switching device in the middle is in the on state, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum are both controlled to be in the off state.

[0128] In implementation, within any switching cycle, referring to FIG6 , the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum phase can be controlled to be turned on first. The portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum phase refers to: when the current voltage of the minimum phase is greater than zero, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum phase are controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum phase are controlled to be turned off; when the current voltage of the minimum phase is less than zero, the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum phase are controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum phase are controlled to be turned off.

[0129] At time t1, the maximum corresponding part of the controllable switching devices is controlled to be turned on. First, the method for calculating the 0-t1 duration can be: first calculate the first difference between 1 and the first duty cycle, and then multiply the first difference by the total duration of the switching cycle to obtain the first duration, and half of the first duration is the 0-t1 duration. Secondly, the maximum corresponding part of the controllable switching devices refers to: when the current voltage of the maximum phase is greater than zero, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned off; when the current voltage of the maximum phase is less than zero, the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned off.

[0130] At time t2, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum phase that is in the on state is controlled to be turned off, and the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle phase is controlled to be turned on. First, the calculation method of the 0-t2 duration can be: first calculate the second difference between 1 and the second duty cycle, and then multiply the second difference by the total duration of the switching cycle to obtain the second duration, and half of the second duration is the 0-t2 duration. Secondly, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle phase refers to: when the current voltage of the middle phase is greater than zero, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned off; when the current voltage of the middle phase is less than zero, the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned off.

[0131] At time t3, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle portion that is in the on state is controlled to be turned off, and the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the smallest portion is controlled to be turned on. The duration t2-t3 is calculated by multiplying the second duty cycle by the total duration of the switching period to obtain t2-t3.

[0132] At time t4, the corresponding portion of the controllable switching devices in the on state is controlled to be turned off. The calculation method of the duration t1-t2 is: calculate the product of the first duty cycle and the total duration of the switching cycle to obtain t1-t2.

[0133] During the time period t4-t5, only the minimum corresponding portion of controllable switching devices is in the on state.

[0134] The second control method:

[0135] In any switching cycle, when the maximum corresponding controllable switching device and the middle corresponding controllable switching device are both in the off state, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum are controlled to be in the on state; when the maximum corresponding controllable switching device is in the on state and the middle corresponding controllable switching device is in the off state, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum or the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum is controlled to be in the on state.

[0136] In practice, in any switching cycle, referring to FIG6 , the controllable switch device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switch device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum can be controlled to be turned on. At this time, since only the controllable switch device corresponding to the minimum among the three corresponding bridge arms is turned on, the bridge arm DC output voltage V PNThe voltages at points P and N at both ends of the circuit are clamped to the current voltage of the minimum phase, so that the voltages at points P and N will not jump to exceed the current voltage of the minimum phase, realizing active clamping and reducing voltage stress.

[0137] Moreover, when all the controllable switch devices corresponding to the minimum phase are in the on state, the voltage drop across the series circuit of all the controllable switch devices of the minimum phase is greater than D dc Therefore, the current will flow through D dc , and will not flow through the series circuit where all the controllable switching devices of the smallest phase are located. Therefore, controlling all the controllable switching devices of the smallest phase to be turned on will not have any impact on the operation of the current source converter, ensuring that the three-phase AC input voltage (i.e., the current voltage of the three phases) is high and can still work reliably, ensuring a wide range of input voltage operating range.

[0138] At time t1, the part of the controllable switching devices corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned on, and the part of the controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum is controlled to be turned off. First, the calculation method of the 0-t1 time length can be: first calculate the first difference between 1 and the first duty cycle, and then multiply the first difference by the total time length of the switching cycle to obtain the first time length, and half of the first time length is the 0-t1 time length. Secondly, the part of the controllable switching devices corresponding to the maximum refers to: when the current voltage of the maximum phase is greater than zero, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned off; when the current voltage of the maximum phase is less than zero, the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the maximum is controlled to be turned off. Then, controlling the part of the controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum to be disconnected means: when the current voltage of the minimum phase is greater than zero, controlling the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum to be disconnected, and the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum are still in the on state; when the current voltage of the minimum phase is less than zero, controlling the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum to be disconnected, and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum are still in the on state.

[0139] At time t2, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum phase that is in the on state is controlled to be turned off, and the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle phase is controlled to be turned on. First, the calculation method of the 0-t2 duration can be: first calculate the second difference between 1 and the second duty cycle, and then multiply the second difference by the total duration of the switching cycle to obtain the second duration, and half of the second duration is the 0-t2 duration. Secondly, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle phase refers to: when the current voltage of the middle phase is greater than zero, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned off; when the current voltage of the middle phase is less than zero, the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned on, and the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the middle phase are controlled to be turned off.

[0140] At time t3, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the middle portion that is in the on state is controlled to be turned off, and the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the smallest portion is controlled to be turned on. The duration t2-t3 is calculated by multiplying the second duty cycle by the total duration of the switching period to obtain t2-t3.

[0141] At time t4, the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the maximum duty cycle that is in the on state is controlled to be turned off, and the portion of controllable switching devices corresponding to the minimum duty cycle that is in the off state is controlled to be turned on. The duration t1-t2 is calculated by multiplying the first duty cycle by the total duration of the switching period to obtain t1-t2.

[0142] During the time period t4-t5, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum are both in the on state, so that the voltage at point P and the voltage at point N will not jump to a current voltage exceeding the minimum phase, realizing active clamping and thus reducing voltage stress.

[0143] The third control method:

[0144] In any switching cycle, based on the first duty cycle, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the maximum and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the maximum are both turned on or turned off; based on the second duty cycle, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the middle and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the middle are both turned on or turned off; based on the third duty cycle, the controllable switching devices on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switching devices on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum are both controlled to be turned on or turned off.

[0145] In implementation, referring to FIG6 , taking the switching cycle 0-t5 as an example, based on the first duty cycle and the total duration of the switching cycle, the conduction period of the maximum phase in the switching cycle (i.e., t1-t4 in FIG6 ) can be determined. Then, at time t1, the controllable switching device on the maximum corresponding upper bridge arm and the controllable switching device on the maximum corresponding lower bridge arm can be controlled to be turned on. At time t4, the controllable switching device on the maximum corresponding upper bridge arm and the controllable switching device on the maximum corresponding lower bridge arm can be controlled to be turned off.

[0146] Based on the second duty cycle and the total duration of the switching cycle, the conduction period of the middle phase in the switching cycle (i.e., t2-t3 in Figure 6) can be determined. Then, at time t2, the controllable switching devices on the corresponding upper bridge arm in the middle and the controllable switching devices on the corresponding lower bridge arm in the middle can be controlled to be turned on. At time t3, the controllable switching devices on the corresponding upper bridge arm in the middle and the controllable switching devices on the corresponding lower bridge arm in the middle can be controlled to be turned off.

[0147] Based on the third duty cycle and the total duration of the switching cycle, the conduction period of the minimum phase in the switching cycle (i.e., 0-t2 and t3-t5 in Figure 6) can be determined. Then, at time t3, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum can be controlled to be turned on. At time t7 of the next switching cycle, the controllable switching device on the upper bridge arm corresponding to the minimum and the controllable switching device on the lower bridge arm corresponding to the minimum can be controlled to be turned off.

[0148] Such an arrangement can achieve the beneficial effect of the second control method of "when the maximum corresponding controllable switch device and the middle corresponding controllable switch device are both in the off state, controlling the controllable switch device on the minimum corresponding upper bridge arm and the controllable switch device on the minimum corresponding lower bridge arm to be in the on state; when the maximum corresponding controllable switch device is in the on state and the middle corresponding controllable switch device is in the off state, controlling the controllable switch device on the minimum corresponding upper bridge arm or the controllable switch device on the minimum corresponding lower bridge arm to be in the on state", that is, reducing voltage stress, ensuring a wide range of input voltage operating range, and reducing the complexity of the control method.

[0149] The above control methods are only examples. The control method in the embodiment of the present application may also be other reasonable methods, and the embodiment of the present application does not make specific limitations on this.

[0150] In the embodiment of the present application, the method for determining the maximum corresponding first duty cycle may be as follows:

[0151] A maximum corresponding first duty cycle is determined based on the sum of the squares of the current voltages of the three phases, the current voltage of the maximum phase, and the DC voltage.

[0152] In a possible implementation, the maximum corresponding first duty cycle may be determined based on the following formula (1):

[0153] Among them, d Max is the first duty cycle, V dc is the DC voltage, v a 、v b 、v c They are the current voltages of the three-phase alternating current respectively.

[0154] In the embodiment of the present application, the method for determining the second duty cycle corresponding to the middle may be as follows:

[0155] A second duty cycle corresponding to the middle phase is determined based on the sum of the squares of the current voltages of the three phases, the current voltage of the middle phase, and the DC voltage.

[0156] In a possible implementation, the second duty cycle corresponding to the middle may be determined based on the following formula (2):

[0157] Among them, d Mid is the second duty cycle, V dc is the DC voltage, v a 、v b 、v c They are the current voltages of the three-phase alternating current respectively.

[0158] Below, referring to Table 1, the calculation methods of the three corresponding duty cycles in each sector are summarized and introduced:

[0159] Table 1

[0160] In the embodiment of the present application, the calculation method of the three corresponding duty cycles can also be other reasonable methods, and the embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit this.

[0161] All of the above optional technical solutions can be combined in any way to form optional embodiments of the present application, and will not be described in detail here.

[0162] The solution mentioned in the embodiment of the present application is to determine the first duty cycle corresponding to the maximum based on the current voltage of the maximum phase, and to determine the second duty cycle corresponding to the middle based on the current voltage of the middle phase. The minimum phase and the middle phase complement each other. In this way, in each switching cycle, the bridge arm DC output voltage V PNIt will jump from zero to the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase, then jump from the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase to the line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase, then jump from the line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase to the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase, and then jump from the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase to zero.

[0163] Since the line voltage between the minimum phase and the maximum phase in any sector of the 12 sectors is less than the line voltage between the middle phase and the maximum phase, the bridge arm DC output voltage V PN The jump amplitude is reduced, thereby reducing the voltage stress, ensuring good current waveform quality of the three-phase AC power, reducing the cost of the filter on the three-phase AC side, and improving the EMI performance.

The positioning component 908 can be a positioning component based on the GPS (global positioning system), Beidou system, Greninja system or Galileo system.

[0215] Power supply 909 is used to power various components in terminal 900. Power supply 909 can be AC ​​power, DC power, disposable batteries, or rechargeable batteries. When power supply 909 includes a rechargeable battery, the rechargeable battery can support wired charging or wireless charging. The rechargeable battery can also be used to support fast charging technology.

[0216] In some embodiments, the terminal 900 further includes one or more sensors 910 , including but not limited to: an acceleration sensor 911 , a gyroscope sensor 912 , a pressure sensor 913 , a fingerprint sensor 914 , an optical sensor 915 , and a proximity sensor 916 .

[0217] The accelerometer 911 can detect the magnitude of acceleration along the three coordinate axes of the coordinate system established by the terminal 900. For example, the accelerometer 911 can be used to detect the components of gravity acceleration along the three coordinate axes. The processor 901 can control the display screen 905 to display the user interface in a landscape or portrait view based on the gravity acceleration signal collected by the accelerometer 911. The accelerometer 911 can also be used to collect game or user motion data.

[0218] The gyroscope sensor 912 can detect the orientation and rotation angle of the terminal 900. It can work with the accelerometer 911 to collect the user's 3D movements on the terminal 900. Based on the data collected by the gyroscope sensor 912, the processor 901 can implement the following functions: motion sensing (for example, changing the UI based on the user's tilt operation), image stabilization during shooting, game control, and inertial navigation.

[0219] The pressure sensor 913 can be set on the side frame of the terminal 900 and / or the lower layer of the display screen 905. When the pressure sensor 913 is set on the side frame of the terminal 900, it can detect the user's grip signal of the terminal 900, and the processor 901 performs left and right hand recognition or shortcut operations based on the grip signal collected by the pressure sensor 913. When the pressure sensor 913 is set on the lower layer of the display screen 905, the processor 901 controls the operable controls on the UI interface based on the user's pressure operation on the display screen 905. The operable controls include at least one of button controls, scroll bar controls, icon controls, and menu controls.

[0220] The fingerprint sensor 914 is used to collect the user's fingerprint. The processor 901 identifies the user's identity based on the fingerprint collected by the fingerprint sensor 914, or the fingerprint sensor 914 identifies the user's identity based on the collected fingerprint. When the user's identity is identified as a trusted identity, the processor 901 authorizes the user to perform relevant sensitive operations, such as unlocking the screen, viewing encrypted information, downloading software, making payments, and changing settings. The fingerprint sensor 914 can be set on the front, back, or side of the terminal 900. When a physical button or manufacturer logo is set on the terminal 900, the fingerprint sensor 914 can be integrated with the physical button or manufacturer logo.

[0221] The optical sensor 915 is used to detect ambient light intensity. In one embodiment, the processor 901 can control the display brightness of the display screen 905 based on the ambient light intensity detected by the optical sensor 915. Specifically, when the ambient light intensity is high, the display brightness of the display screen 905 is increased; when the ambient light intensity is low, the display brightness of the display screen 905 is decreased. In another embodiment, the processor 901 can also dynamically adjust the shooting parameters of the camera assembly 906 based on the ambient light intensity detected by the optical sensor 915.

[0222] Proximity sensor 916, also known as a distance sensor, is typically located on the front panel of terminal 900. Proximity sensor 916 is used to detect the distance between the user and the front of terminal 900. In one embodiment, when proximity sensor 916 detects that the distance between the user and the front of terminal 900 is gradually decreasing, processor 901 controls display screen 905 to switch from the screen-on state to the screen-off state. When proximity sensor 916 detects that the distance between the user and the front of terminal 900 is gradually increasing, processor 901 controls display screen 905 to switch from the screen-off state to the screen-on state.
