Abstract—This paper introduces the minimum time tracking control of an Active Front End (AFE) converter with excellent transient performance. Since the dynamical model of the AFE converter is a bilinear system, switch- ing control is provided for minimum time tracking with final time-varying trajectories in this system. Due to the complexity of implementing this controller, a suboptimal closed-loop controller is proposed whose dynamic perfor- mance is very close to the minimum time tracking control. Simulation and experimental results show that the sub- optimal proposed controller has excellent dynamic perfor- mance against load disturbances compared to the conven- tional control methods.
