Development and Implementation of a Low-Cost Research Platform for Control Applications for Inverter-Based Generators

This document presents the develop and implementation of a low-cost research platform based on a microcontroller. The platform was validated through implementation of a resonant controller in αβ-frame for Inverter-Based Generators. Also, this work proposes a comparative analysis between a dSPACE 1006 and the embedded systems for control applications in inverter-based generators (IBGs). For the development of the research platform, a microcontroller from the Texas Instruments TMS320F28379D C2000 line was used. Our analysis revealed that control behavior for IBG applications through a low-cost platform based on a microcontroller is similar to that of a dSPACE.
