Abstract

A method for controlling a system for generating electric power for a power distribution network of an aircraft, the system for generating electric power comprising a generator, a rectifier, an inverter which produces a voltage according to several fixed-frequency phases, a DC voltage bus which connects the rectifier to the inverter, the control method comprising: —a correction step to determine at least one correction quantity GC, —a step of determining a signal SO for controlling the inverter from the determined correction quantity GC, —a step of determining a signal SG for controlling the generator from the determined correction quantity GC and —a step of transmitting the control signals SO, SG to the inverter and to the generator, respectively.
