This paper presents system modeling, modified space vector PWM implementation and design of a closed loop controller of the Z-source inverter which consists of L and C components and shoot-through zero vectors for DGS. Zero vector periods of SVPWM utilized to boost DC-link voltage instead of conventional DC/DC converter and transformer. Only two shoot-through vut(nn are used for DC link voltage control during one switching period without loss of non-zero vectors. Discrete time sliding mode controller, robust servomechanism controller are designed to realize fast and no-overshoot current response and a steady state voltage error. Simulation results are shows the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

In this paper, AC electric vehicle propulsion system(Converter/Inverter) using high power semiconductor, IPM is proposed. 2-Parallel operation of two PWM converter is adopted for increasing capacity of system and the harmonic content is eliminated by the phase shaft between two PWM converters switching phase. VVVF inverter control is used a mixed control algorithm, where the vector control strategy at low speed region and slip-frequency control strategy at high speed region. The proposed propulsion system is verified by experimental results with a 1,350kW converter and 1,100kVA inverter with four 210kW traction motors.

In this paper, a novel energy recovery circuit for AC PDPs(Plasma Display Panels) with reduced sustain voltage is proposed to improve the performance of conventional circuits such as TERES(TEchnology of REciprocal Sustainer). In the TERES circuit, the sustain voltage is the half of general sustaining driver for AC PDPs, however, there is no energy recovery circuit. In the proposed circuit, the efficiency is heightened by installing in energy recovery circuit and the loss of switching device is reduced by performing the zero voltage switching or zero current switching. Although the energy recovery circuit is added, the number of active switching elements of the proposed circuit is the same as that of the TERES circuit. The operations of the proposed circuit are analyzed for each mode and its validity is verified by the simulations and experimentation.

Electric propulsion aircraft are being actively researched in the aviation field in recent years to solve environmental and noise problems caused by existing gas turbine engine. In particular, research on a thrust motor as a core component of an electric power propulsion system and an inverter for driving it is actively being conducted. In this paper, a motor with high specific power is selected to determine characteristics of aircraft that are sensitive to weight and volume. Power loss of the inverter is then simulated. In the simulation, the selected motor and power device were modeled using PSIM, a power electronics analysis tool. Inverter power loss according to switching frequency was then analyzed.

In this paper, a current-voltage characteristics of n-channel junctionless and inversion mode(IM) MuGFET, and p-channel junctionless and accumulation mode(AM) MuGFET has been measured and analyzed for the application in high speed and low power switching devices. From the variation of the threshold voltage and the saturation drain current with the substrate bias voltages, their variations in IM devices are larger than junctionless devices for n-channel devices, but their variations in junctioness devices are larger than AM devices for p-channel devices. The variations of transconductance with substrate biases are more significant in p-channel devices than n-channel devices. From the characteristics of subthreshold swing, it was observed that the S value is almost independent on the substrate biases in n-channel devices and p-channel junctionless devices but it is increased with the increase of the substrate biases in p-channel AM devices. For the application in high speed and low power switching devices using the substrate biases, IM device is better than junctionless devices for n-channel devices and junctionless device is better than AM devices for p-channel devices.

In this paper, a method for controlling the a single-phase grid-connected photovoltaic(PV) system using Z-source inverter (ZSI) is proposed. The operating region of grid-connected ZSI system with a variation of PV output voltage are analyzed by considering the voltage stress across switching devices. The switching patterns for controlling effectively the shoot-through time while reducing the switching loss are suggested. Both the simulation studies and experimental results with 32-bit DSP are carried out to verify the performances of proposed system.

본 논문에서는 Common-Mode Noise가 저감된 계통연계형 단상인버터의 파워소자선정에 따른 스위칭 손실 저감을 제안한다. 풀브리지 회로에서 상용전원 레퍼런스 주파수로 상보적인 스위칭 신호를 주는 PWM_1구간에는 비교적 천천히 스위칭하기 때문에 컨덕션 loss가 적은 IGBT를 사용하며, 보다 빠른 스위칭 주파수로 동작하는 PWM_2구간에서는 Switching loss가 적은 MOSFET을 사용하여 전체적인 스위치에서 발생되는 손실을 저감한다.

Z-소스 인버터는 스위치의 암 단락과 개방을 이용한 인버터로써 기존의 전압형과 전류형 인버터의 단점을 개선하면서 승압 및 강압 기능을 동시에 가질 수 있다. 하지만 주전원과 스위치 회로 사잉에 위치한 임피던스 네트워크 때문에 스위칭 소자에 과도한 전압 오버슈트가 발생하며, 암 단락으로 인한 스위칭 손실이 기존의 전압형 인버터보다 증가하게 되는 단점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭 구현이 가능한 무손실 스너버를 적용한 소프트 스위칭 트랜스-Z-소스 인버터를 제안한다.
