title = "The control unit of a single phase voltage regulator",
abstract = "Supplying regulated voltage to critical loads is an important topic for several years. This paper presents a single-phase electronic voltage regulator based on high frequency switching of an isolated transformer where primary side voltage is controlled by two full-bridge converters sharing a common DC bus and operating at 50Hz and 20kHz switching frequencies. This allows 50Hz induced voltage on the primary side of the transformer, regulated by high frequency switching. Depending on the input voltage, voltage at the secondary side of the transformer add to (boost mode) or subtract (buck mode) from the supply voltage, therefore, maintaining a regulated voltage value across the load. The regulator is controlled by a digital controller allowing fast dynamic response. A 5kVA single-phase voltage regulator is realized to verify the operation of the proposed algorithm. The experimental results show that regulator maintains constant voltage across the load both in step-up (low supply voltage) and step-down (high supply voltage) modes.",
