In this paper, a high-performance control structure is designed, implemented, and applied to a three-phase series-parallel uninterruptible power supply (UPS). This kind of UPS system provides input power factor correction, output voltage conditioning, and high efficiency. The control strategy proposed in this paper is based on voltage control of the parallel converter and current control of the series converter. It is shown that this strategy improves the system operation, specifically resulting in a smoother and more seamless transition between UPS operating modes. The controller in the proposed strategy is based on combination of two control methods with different characteristics and is therefore called a hybrid structure. To enhance the steady-state performance of the UPS and reach fast error convergence, a repetitive controller is used. In addition, to reach a fast transient response required for control of output voltage, a fast deadbeat is used. The stability of this hybrid controller is discussed, and the design procedure for a typical converter is given. For validation and verification of the theoretical analysis, both experimental and simulation results are shown.
