In this paper, the authors propose a current control system for three phase PWM AC/DC converter without the source voltage sensors. The sinusoidal input current and unity effective power factor are realised based on the estimated source voltage in the controller. The estimation of source voltage is performed based on Luenberger observer using actual currents. The estimated source voltage is used to accomplish unity power factor. The proposed method is proved by simulations.

This paper proposes two kinds of novel switching method for a single phase current-controlled voltage-type ac-to-dc converter. Proposed are modifications of the conventional hysteresis current control, and are named by the half suppressing method and unipolar method, respectively. The first one suppresses an inactive half of the four switching signals and uses active another half for current control. The second method uses only one, a quarter of switching signals suppresed the others. Both the simulation and experimental results show that proposed methods are more efficient in switch utilization and have comparable or better performance when compared with conventional method.

An LCL-type Isolated dc-dc converter operating for constant output voltage is analyzed, including the effect of a high frequency transformer using ac complex circuit approximation. Its solution is derived and is used to obtain the characteristics of the proposed converter. The analyses show through converter modeling, phasor diagram and gain comparison that inclusion of a high frequency transformer results in introduction of magnetizing inductance and leakage inductances at conventional LCL dc-dc converter with ideal transformer. The theoretical and simulation results are presented in case of the wide variations in input voltage and load current in detail. Analysis and simulation results observed that introduction of a transformer in the dc-dc converter had considerable effect on the performance, especially in the case of low output voltage and large load.

An LCL-type isolated dc-dc converter is analyzed, using ac approximation. Analyses to express characteristics on the proposed converter are derived under steady and ideal elements conditions in this paper. The two operating modes can be identified from the analysis results representing different device conduction sequences. This converter is capable of achieving required output voltage(step up or down) operations with inductance ratio while operated at fixed frequency with constant duty ratio-50%. Experimental results show that the designed converter based on Q has zero voltage switching and constant output voltage at different load variations to verify the analysis.

This paper presents the linearized optimal PWM techniques for current source GTO converter. This proposed method is to linearize an optimal PWM modulation strategy so that the turn-on/off-periods of the GTO switches can be computed on-line in real-time for any modulation index. This allows the rapid and continuous regulation of the DC output current while producing the sinusoidal AC input current waveform and unit power factor.

Studying for environmental friendly and efficient energy source is now actively under way on because problems like environmental pollution and exhaust of natural resources are in issue. Fuel Cell which is an alternative energy source has low voltage and high current characteristic, therefore boost up voltage converter and DC-AC converter is required to use as a common power source. In this paper, DC-DC converter which has high efficient and high power density is proposed and verified by experimental result.

본 논문에서는 기존 전류형 HVDC(High Voltage Direct Current) 토폴로지에서 DC단에 직렬로 MMC(Modular multi-level Con verter, MMC) 토폴로지를 결합하여 대용량의 전력을 전류형 HVDC로 사용하고, 소용량 전력을 MMC로 사용 및 전력을 컨트롤하여 전류형 HVDC의 점호각을 최소로 가져갈 수 있는 토폴로지를 설계하였다. 이러한 토폴로지는 최소점호각 제한을 적게 할 수 있고, 동일출력 DC전압 조건하에서 무효전력발생을 적게 할 수 있는, 기존 전류형 HVDC에 MMC를 추가한 새로운 하이브리드 HVDC용 AC/DC컨버터의 구조이다. 타당성 검증을 위해 PSIM을 이용한 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다.
