In this paper, a method for controlling a single phase PWM AC/DC converter without any voltage sensors is proposed. In this method, the source voltage is estimated by sliding mode observer and input current is synchronized with the estimated source voltage. The source voltage is estimated by current error between the actul and the estimated current. The experimental results confirm the validity of the proposed control method.

It is general to make the circuit analysis of current-fed type inverter driven by current source with rippleless input under the assumption of infinite induction Ld in direct current reactor(DCL). This paper focusing on the fact that Ld has bounded value in real circuit, examines operating characteristics by analysis of static state characteristics of current type inverter driven by voltage source and compares it with the operating characteristics of the circuit driven by current source.

We developed a constant current source which is insensitive to threshold voltage variation caused by irregular grain boundary distribution in polycrystalline silicon. The proposed current source has superior saturation characteristics over wide range of input voltages as well as small current error compared to the previously reported Vth compensated sources. We measured the circuit performance and error in current due to parameter variation by using HSPICE.

In this paper, parallel operation systems with Z-source Inverters for the fuel cell systems are discussed. The carrier phase shifted SPWM(Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation) has an advantage in reducing harmonics of output current. However when this technique applies in parallel operation of Z-source inverters, it additionally produces circulating currents. The circulating current is analyzed and a method to prevent the circulating current is applied to the parallel operation systems of Z-source inverters. To maintain high performance with reduced circulating current in inverter output and low harmonic components in load current, circulating current reactors are used. The proposed approach is verified through simulation and experiment.

This paper presents a current mode integrated control technique (CM-ICT) using a modified voltage space vector modulation (MSVM) for Z-source inverter (ZSI) fed induction motor drives. MSVM provides a better DC voltage boost in the dc-link, a wide range of AC output voltage controllability and a better line harmonic profile. In a voltage mode ICT (VM-ICT), the outer voltage feedback loop alone is designed and it enforces the desired line voltage to the motor drive. An integrated control technique (ICT), with an inner current feedback loop is proposed in this paper for the purpose of line current limiting and soft operation of the drive. The current command generated by the PI controller and limiter in the outer voltage feedback loop, is compared with the actual line current, and the error is processed through the PI controller and a limiter. This limiter ensures that, the voltage control signal to the Z-source inverter is constrained to a safe level. The rise and fall of the control signal voltage are made to be gradual, so as to protect the induction motor drive and the Z-source inverter from transients. The single stage controller arrangement of the proposed CM-ICT offers easier compensation. Analysis, Matlab/Simulink simulations, and experimental results have been presented to validate the proposed technique.

In this paper, we compose of the stepdown chopper and the current source inverter. Because dc side current of the current source inverter pulse with twice frequency of utility, we control that modulation factor of chopper is pulsed twice frequency. Therefore if voltage across the dc reactor equal to zero, it tis decreased. And we control modulation factor of the chopper to operate at maximum power point around of solar cell.

This paper proposes a control method for three-phase voltage-source PWM converters using only a single current sensor in the DC link. A predictive current controller for the voltage-source PWM converter is used so that all phase currents can be reconstructed in a switching period although one or two of active vectors are applied only for a short time. Compensation of the 2 step delays is also included. In this paper single sensor current control using predictive state observer will be discussed, and investigated experimentally.

In this paper, We make experiment on two methode for GaAs MESFET with temperature variation. One method, we mesure gate leakage current at open source electrode. another we mesure gate leakage current at short source electrode. The difference of two current has been tested and provide that the existence of another source to Schottky barrier height against the image force lowering effect.

The current status of the AKARI-FIS Point Source Catalogue is reported. The first version of the Bright Source Catalogue has been in public since March 2010 and used extensively in the various fields in astronomy. The second version of the Bright Source Catalogue and the first version of the Faint Source Catalogue are currently under development. The revised Bright Source Catalogue is expected to have improved completeness, reliability, and accuracy compared to the current version. The Faint Source Catalogue will have a scan-density dependent detection limit and will enable much deeper exploration of the sky especially in the high-ecliptic latitude regions. Both catalogues will be available in a year time scale.

This paper presents an integrative control scheme for series-type active power filters combined with shunt passive filters not only to compensate for the source voltage unbalance and current harmonics but also to correct the power factor. To reduce the power capacity of the active filters, passive filters are connected in parallel. Diode rectifiers are replaced by the PWM converters in order to feed the real power back to the source. Power factor control is performed by changing the phase of the load voltage so that the phase of the source current coincides with that of the source voltage. The resultant voltage reference is the addition of the voltage component compensating for the source voltage unbalance and harmonic currents and the voltage component correcting the power factor. The validity of the proposed algorithm has been verified by experimental results.
