Abstract

The increasing demand for efficient and reliable high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems has underscored the necessity for advanced control strategies to augment system performance. This article presents the design and implementation of an integral backstepping control approach customized for voltage source converter (VSC)-based HVDC systems. The proposed methodology primarily concentrates on tackling the inherent nonlinearities, uncertainties, and disturbances that typically impede the stability and efficiency of VSC-HVDC systems. By incorporating integral action into the backstepping control framework, two key objectives are accomplished: i) precise regulation of the direct voltage at the rectifier station and accurate control of the active power at the inverter station, and ii) effective power factor correction (PFC) at both stations within the HVDC system. These objectives contribute to robust tracking performance, enhanced dynamic stability, and improved overall system efficiency. The theoretical design has been verified through extensive numerical simulations conducted in the MATLAB/Simulink environment, showcasing the efficacy of the proposed control strategy in ensuring stability and performance under varying conditions.
