Journal Article
Vazquez, S., León, J., Franquelo, L., Rodriguez, J., Young, H. A., Marquez, A., & Zanchetta, P. (2014). Model Predictive Control: A Review of Its Applications in Power Electronics. IEEE Industrial Electronics Magazine, 8(1), 16-31. https://doi.org/10.1109/mie.2013.2290138

Model-based predictive control (MPC) for power converters and drives is a control technique that has gained attention in the research community. The main reason for this is that although MPC presents high computational burden, it can easily handle mu...

Comparison of two three-phase pll systems for more electric aircraft (2014)
Journal Article
Bifaretti, S., Zanchetta, P., & Lavopa, E. (2014). Comparison of two three-phase pll systems for more electric aircraft. IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 29(12), https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEL.2014.2307003

The More Electric Aircraft power system is characterized by variable supply frequency, in general between 360Hz and 900Hz. All equipment on board the aircraft have to operate delivering high performance under this variable frequency condition. In par...

Repetitive Control for High-Performance Resonant Pulsed Power Supply in Radio Frequency Applications (2013)
Journal Article
Ji, C., Zanchetta, P., Carastro, F., & Clare, J. (2014). Repetitive Control for High-Performance Resonant Pulsed Power Supply in Radio Frequency Applications. IEEE Transactions on Industry Applications, 50(4), 2660-2670. https://doi.org/10.1109/TIA.2013.2292997

This paper presents a novel three-phase series resonant parallel loaded resonant converter topology for radio frequency applications. The proposed converter is capable of producing a series of “long pulses” as output voltage, each one lasting 1 ms in...

Implementation of a hybrid AC-AC direct power converter with unity voltage transfer (2008)
Journal Article
Wijekoon, T., Klumpner, C., Zanchetta, P., & Wheeler, P. (2008). Implementation of a hybrid AC-AC direct power converter with unity voltage transfer. IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, 23(4), https://doi.org/10.1109/TPEL.2008.924601

This paper presents a novel hybrid direct power converter (HDPC) which overcomes the two main disadvantages of matrix converters: limited voltage transfer ratio and low immunity to grid disturbance. The proposed converter is formed by integrating a r... Read More about Implementation of a hybrid AC-AC direct power converter with unity voltage transfer.
