Abstract – This paper proposes a simple optimal voltage
control method for three-phase uninterruptible-
power-supply systems. An UPS also known as
uninterruptable power supply, or battery/flywheel
backup is an electrical apparatus that provides
emergency power to a load when the input power
source or mains power fails. AC voltage controller
electronic module based on either thyristors,
TRIACs, SCRs or IGBTs, which converts a fixed
voltage, fixed frequency alternating current (AC)
electrical input supply to obtain variable voltage in
output delivered to a resistive load. The proposed
voltage controller is composed of a feedback control
term and a compensating control term. The former
term is designed to make the system errors converge
to zero, whereas the latter term is applied to
compensate for the system uncertainties. Moreover,
the optimal load current observer is used to optimize
system cost and reliability. Particularly, the closed-
loop stability of an observer-based optimal voltage
control law is mathematically proven by showing that
the whole states of the augmented observer-based
control system errors exponentially converge to zero.
Unlike previous algorithms, the proposed method can
make a tradeoff between control input magnitude and
tracking error by simply choosing proper
performance indexes. The effectiveness of the
proposed controller is validated through simulations
on MATLAB/Simulink. Finally, the comparative
results for the proposed scheme and the conventional
feedbacklinearization control scheme are presented to
demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves an
excellent performance such as fast transient response,
small steady-state error, and low total harmonic
distortion under load step change, unbalanced load,
and nonlinear load with the parameter variations. A
fuzzy logic controller to improve the voltage total
harmonic distortions and steady state and transient
state responses to get less harmonic distortions than
fuzzy less observer voltage controller.
Key Words: Optimal load current observer, optimal voltage control, three-phase inverter, total harmonic distortion
(THD), uninterruptible power supply (UPS), fuzzy logic
controller.
1. INTRODUCTION
A UPS differs from an auxiliary or emergency power
system or standby generator in that it will provide near-
instantaneous protection from input power interruptions,
by supplying energy stored in batteries, supercapacitors,
or flywheels. The onbattery runtime of most
uninterruptible power sources is relatively short (only a
few minutes) but sufficient to start a standby power
source or properly shut down the protected equipment. Recently, the importance of the UPS systems has been
intensified more and more due to the increase of sensitive
and critical applications such as communication systems,
medical equipment, semiconductor manufacturing
systems, and data processing systems [1]-[3]. Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems supply emergency power in case of utility power failures. These applications require clean power and high reliability regardless of the electric power failures and distorted utility supply voltage. Thus, the performance of the UPS systems is usually evaluated in terms of the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the output voltage and the transient/steady state responses regardless of the load conditions: load step change, linear load and nonlinear load.[4]-[7].
So far, the optimal control theory has been
researched in various fields such as aerospace,
economics, physics, and so on [8], since it has a
computable solution called a performance index that can

quantitatively evaluate the system performance by
contrast with other control theories. In addition, the
optimal control design gives the optimality of the
controller according to a quadratic performance
criterion and enables the control system to have good
properties such as enough gain and phase margin,
robustness to uncertainties, good tolerance of
nonlinearities, etc. [9]. Hence, a linear optimal
controller has not only a simple structure in
comparison with other controllers but also a
remarkable control performance similar to other
nonlinear controllers [10]–[12]. Compared to
number of control algorithms that have been
proposed such as proportional–integral (PI) control,
H∞ loop-shaping control, model predictive control,
deadbeat control, sliding-mode control, repetitive
control, adaptive control, and feedback linearization
control (FLC) the proposed optimal voltage control
and fuzzy based control is showing better
performances in voltage correction and reduction of
total harmonic distortions(THD). This paper proposes
an observer-based optimal voltage control scheme for
three-phase UPS systems. This proposed voltage
controller encapsulates two main parts: a feedback
control term and a compensating control term. The
former term is designed to make the system errors
converge to zero, and the latter term is applied to
estimate the system uncertainties
Fig.1.Three-phase inverter with an LC alters for a
UPS system.
The Lyapunov theorem is used to analyze the
stability of the system. Specially, this paper proves
the closed loop stability of an observer based optimal
voltage control law by showing that the system errors
exponentially converge to zero. Moreover, the
proposed control law can be systematically designed
taking into consideration a tradeoff between control
input magnitude and tracking error unlike previous
algorithms.
In FLC, basic control action is determined by a set
of linguistic rules. These rules are determined by
the system. Since the numerical variables
areconverted into linguistic variables, mathematical
modeling of the system is not required in FC
2. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION AND PROBLEM FORMULATION:

control system.
Fig. 2 illustrates the overall block, of the
proposed observer-based optimal voltage control system.
In practice, the inverter phase currents and line-to-neutral
load voltages are measured via the CTs and PTs to
implement the feedback control. In this paper, a space
vector PWM technique is used to generate the control
inputs (Viα and Viβ) in real time. The main objective of
static power converters is to produce an ac output waveform
from a dc power supply. According to the type of ac output
waveform, these topologies can be considered as voltage
source inverters (VSIs), where the independently
controlled ac output is a voltage waveform. These
structures are the most widely because they naturally
behave as voltage sources as required by many industrial
applications, such as adjustable speed drives(ASDs),
which are the most popular application of inverters. Here
we are using an LC filter to filter the harmonics. The
proposed algorithm is verified through two different
types of loads as explicitly depicted in Fig. 3(a). linear-
load circuit that consists of a resistor per phase, where as

capacitor (Cload), and a resistor (Rload). Using these
loads we depict the performance of the sytem. Along
with these an improved technique using fuzzy logic
has been implememted to get better results as optimal
voltage controller.
Fig. 3. Two types of load circuits. (a) Resistive linear
load. (b) Nonlinear load with a three-phase diode

Based on Fig. 1, the dynamic model of a three-phase
invertercan be derived in a d − q synchronous
reference frame as follows [13]:
2 2id iq id Ldi wi k v k v , 1 1Ld Lq id Ldv wv k i k i
2 2iq id iq Lqi wi k v k v , 1 1Lq Ld iq Lqv wv k i k i
where k1 = 1/Cf , and k2 = 1/Lf . In system model (1),
vLd,vLq, iid, and iiq are the state variables, and vid and
viq are the control inputs. In this scheme, the
assumption is made to construct the optimal voltage
controller and optimal load current observer as
follows:
1) The load currents (iLd and iLq) are unknown and
vary very slowly during the sampling period [11].
3. PROPOSED OPTIMAL VOLTAGE CONTROLLER DESIGN AND
STABILITY ANALYSIS:
A. Optimal Voltage Controller Design:
Here, a simple optimal voltage controller is
proposed for system (1). First, let us define the d − q-
axis inverter current references ( ,id iqi i ) as
1 1

k k
(2)
Then, the error values of the load voltages and
inverter currents are set as
,de qeLd Ld Lq Lqv v v v v v
,de qeid id iq idi i i i i i (3)
Therefore, system model (1) can be transformed into the
following error dynamics

Note that ud is applied to compensate for the

following Riccati equation for the solution matrix P
[14]:

where Q and R are the positive definite weighting matrices
with sufficient dimensions
Remark 1: Recall that Q and R are the weighting
matrices excessive large error or control input values
can be penalized by using properly chosen Q and R.
Generally, the large Q means a high control
performance, whereas the large R means a small input
magnitude. Consequently, there is a tradeoff between Q
and R in the control system. The Q and R parameters
generally need to be tuned until satisfactory control results
are obtained.

where Q and R have positive diagonal entries such that √Qi =1/ymax i , where i = 1, 2, . . .,m, and √Ri = 1/umax
i , where i = 1, 2, . . .,m. The number ymaxi is
the maximally acceptable deviation value for the ith component of output y. The other quantity
max
iu is the ith component of input u. With an
initial guessed value, the diagonal entries of Q and R can be adjusted through a trial-and-error method. Then, the optimal voltage controller can be designed by the following equation:
du u Kx (6)
where K = −R-1 BT P denotes the gain matrix, and ud
and Kx represent a feed forward control term and a feedback control term, respectively.

implies that x exponentially converges to zero.
Remark 3: By considering the parameter variations, the state-dependent coefficient matrix A is rewritten as 𝐴′= A + ΔA, where ΔA means the value of system parameter variations. Thus, (4) can be transformed into the following error dynamics:
1( ) ( )T T TV x x P A A P Q PBR B P x (9)
If the following inequality holds for the given ΔA:
𝑃Δ𝐴+Δ𝐴T𝑃<𝑃𝐵𝑅-1+𝑄 (10)
then V < 0 for all nonzero x. Therefore, the proposed
optimal voltage control system can tolerate any parameter
variation satisfying(10)
4. OPTIMAL LOAD CURRENT OBSERVER DESIGN
AND STABILITY ANALYSIS
A. Optimal Load Current Observer Design
To avoid using current sensors, a linear optimal load current observer is introduced in this algorithm. As seen in (2) and (4), the inverter current references (i*Q and i*d) and feed forward control term (ud) need load current information as inputs. From (1) and the assumption, the following dynamic model is obtained to estimate the load current:
0 00 0 0

Then, the load current observer is expressed as

choosing Qo and Ro is the same as in Remark 1.
B. Stability Analysis of Load Current Observer
The error dynamics of the load current observer can

obtained as follows:

This implies that xe exponentially converges to zero. 4.5. OBSERVER-BASED CONTROL LAW AND
CLOSED-LOOP STABILITY ANALYSIS
4.5.1Observer-Based Control Law:
With the estimated load currents achieved
from the observer instead of the measured quantities,
the inverter current errors and feedforward control
term can be obtained as follows:

From (6) and (18), the proposed observer-based control

B. Closed-Loop Stability Analysis:
For the purpose of analyzing the stability, (20) is rewritten as the following: d eu u Kx Hx (21)
Where H=(w/k2)E +KF, As a result, the design procedure of optimal voltage control law can be summerised:
Step 1) Build system model (1) in the d − q coordinate
frame and then derive error dynamics (4) by using
system parameters.
Step 2) Set the optimal voltage controller (6) with the
feedforward control term (ud) and feedback control
term (Kx).
Step 3) Define the load current estimation model (13)
and build the load current observer (14) by using the
Kalman–Bucy optimal observer.
Step 4) Select the observer weighting matrices Qo and Ro
in Riccati equation by referring to Remark 1. Then,
choose the observer gain L in (12) using Qo and Ro
5. FUZZY LOGIC CONTROLLER:
In FLC, basic control action is determined by a set
of linguistic rules. These rules are determined by the
system. Since the numerical variables are converted into
linguistic variables, mathematical modeling of the system is
not required in FC.
Fig. 5. Fuzzy Logic Controller

The FLC comprises of three parts: fuzzification, interference engine and defuzzification. The FC is characterized as (i). seven fuzzy sets for each input and output. (ii). Triangular membership functions for simplicity. (iii). Fuzzification using continuous universe of discourse. (iv). Implication using Mamdani’s, ‘min’ operator.(v). Defuzzification using the height method.
Fuzzification: Membership function values are assigned to the linguistic variables, using seven fuzzy subsets: NB, NM, NS, ZE, PS, PM, and PB. The partition of fuzzy subsets and the shape of membership CE(k) E(k) function adapt the shape up to appropriate system. The value of input error and change in error are normalized by an input scaling factor.
Table 1: Fuzzy Rules
In this system the input scaling factor has been
designed such that input values are between -1 and +1.
The triangular shape of the membership function of this
arrangement presumes that for any particular E(k) input
there is only one dominant fuzzy subset. The input error
for the FLC is given as
E(k) = Pph(k)−Pph(k−1)/ Vph(k)−Vph(k−1) (26)
CE(k) = E(k) – E(k-1) (27)
Inference Method: Several composition methods such
as Max–Min and Max-Dot have been proposed in the
literature. In this paper Min method is used. The output
membership function of each rule is given by the
minimum operator and maximum operator. Table 1
shows rule base of the FLC.
Defuzzification: As a plant usually requires a non-
fuzzy value of control, a defuzzification stage is
needed. To compute the output of the FLC, height
method is used and the FLC output modifies the control
output. Further, the output of FLC controls the switch in the
inverter. In UPQC, the active power, reactive power,
terminal voltage of the line and capacitor voltage are
required to be maintained. In order to control these
parameters, they are sensed and compared with the
reference values. To achieve this, the membership functions
of FC are: error, change in error and output.
The set of FC rules are derived from
u=-[αE + (1-α)*C]
5. PERFORMANCE VALIDATIONS
A. Testbed Description:
The proposed observer-based optimal voltage
controller has been performed through both simulations
with MATLAB/Simulink . Moreover, the conventional
FLC scheme [14] is also adopted to exhibit analysis of
the proposed control scheme since it reveals a reasonable
performance for nonlinear load and has the circuit model
of a three-phase inverter similar to our system. In the
testbed, the inverter phase currents and line-to-neutral
load voltages are measured via the CTs and PTs to
implement the feedback control. In this paper, a space
vector PWM technique is used to generate the control
inputs (Viα and Viβ) in real time. The proposed algorithm
is verified through two different types of loads as
explicitly depicted in Fig. 3.More specifically, Fig. 3(a)
shows a linear-load circuit that consists of a resistor per
phase, whereas Fig. 3(b) depicts a nonlinear-load circuit
that is comprised of a three-phase full-bridge diode
rectifier, an inductor (Lload), a capacitor (Cload), and a
resistor (Rload). Note that during simulation and the
experiment, observer gain L and controller gain K are
selected based on Remark 1 as

expose its merits. In order to instantly engage and

disengage the load during a transient condition, the
on–off switch is employed as shown in Fig. 3.The
resistive load depicted in Fig. 4(a) is applied under
both the load step change condition (i.e., 0%–100%)
and the unbalanced load condition (i.e., phase B
opened) to test the robustness of the proposed
scheme when the load is suddenly disconnected. In
practical applications, the most common tolerance
variations of the filter inductance (Lf ) and filter
capacitance (Cf ), which are used as an output filter,
are within ±10%. To further justify the robustness
under parameter variations, a 30% reduction in both
Lf and Cf is assumed under all load conditions such as
load step change, unbalanced load, and nonlinear
load.

It is important to note that the load current error
waveform in the results of the conventional FLC method
is not included because the FLC scheme does not need
load current information. It can be observed in Fig. 6 that
when the load is suddenly changed, the load output
voltage presents little distortion. However, it quickly
returns to a steady-state condition in 1.0 ms, as shown in
the simulation results in Fig. 6(a). Moreover, it has
revealed a fast recovery time of 1.5 ms in a real
experimental setup as shown in Fig. 6(b).
It can be observed that the load root mean square
(RMS) voltage values in both schemes are appropriately
regulated at steady state. Moreover, small load current
error (ieLA) between the measured value (iLA) and the
estimated value (ˆiLA).

Next, the characteristic performances of the
transient and steady state under unbalanced load are
verified through Figs. 7. Precisely, this case is
implemented under a full-load condition by suddenly
opening phase B. It is shown that the load output
voltages are controlled well, although the rapid
change in the load current of phase B is observed as it
is opened, small steadystate voltage errors under
unbalanced load are observed because the load RMS
voltage values of both methods are almost 110 V. In
addition, the load current observer provides high-
quality information to the proposed controller . To
evaluate the steady-state performance under
nonlinear load, a three-phase diode rectifier shown in
Fig. 7(b) is used.
Fig 9. Combined linear and non linear load with fuzzy
In the case of the conventional FLC scheme, the
corresponding load voltage THD values are 4.4% . It can
be also observed that the proposed control strategy
provides a better load voltage regulation in steady state
similarly as the conventional FLC method. In Fig. 8, it
can be evidently seen that the load current observer
guarantees a good estimation performance because of a
small load current error (ieLA). Finally, all THD and load
RMS voltage values under the three load conditions. On
the other hand, the THD values of the load output voltage
at steady-state full-load operation are found as 4.4% for
proposed optimal voltage controller without using FLC
and 3.02% for optimal voltage controller using fuzzy
logic controller. However, the conventional FLC scheme
shows better performance as well as proposed optimal
voltage controller. Therefore, it is explicitly
demonstrated that the proposed algorithm attains lower
THD and also the optimal controller using fuzzy logic.
The proposed optimal voltage controller with fuzzy has a
little bit better performance than the optimal voltage
controller without fuzzy.
6.Conclusion: This paper has proposed a simple observer-based
optimal voltage control method of the three-phase UPS
systems The proposed controller is composed of a
feedback control term to stabilize the error dynamics of
the system and a compensating control term to estimate
the system uncertainties. Moreover, the optimal load
current observer was used to optimize system cost and
reliability. This paper proved the closed-loop stability of
an observer-based optimal voltage controller by using
the Lyapunov theory. Furthermore, the proposed voltage

control law can be methodically designed taking into
account a tradeoff between control input magnitude
and tracking error unlike previous algorithms. The
superior performance of the proposed control system
was demonstrated through simulations and
experiments. Under three load conditions (load step
change, unbalanced load, and nonlinear load), the
proposed control scheme revealed a better voltage
tracking performance such as lower THD, smaller
steady-state error, and faster transient response. The
optimal voltage controller that has fuzzy logic
controller has attained a better performance as
compared to optimal voltage controller without
having fuzzy logic circuit with less harmonic
distortions in voltage.
