Dead time is typically incorporated in voltage source inverter systems to prevent short circuit cases. However, dead time causes an error between the output voltage and reference voltage. Hence, voltage equation-based algorithms, such as motor parameter estimation and back electromotive force (EMF)-based sensorless algorithms, are prone to estimation errors. Several dead-time compensation methods have been developed to reduce output voltage errors. However, voltage errors are still common in zero current crossing areas, and an effect of the error is much worse in a low speed region. Therefore, employing voltage equation-based algorithms in low speed regions is difficult. This study analyzes the conventional dead-time compensation method and output voltage errors in low speed operation areas. A current shaping method that can reduce output voltage errors is also proposed. Experimental results prove that the proposed method reduces voltage errors and improves the accuracy of the parameter estimation method and the performance of the back EMF-based sensorless algorithm.

This paper proposes a percentage current differential relaying algorithm for bus protection using an advanced compensation algorithm of the secondary current of CTs. A percentage current differential relaying algorithm may maloperate in case of external faults with CT saturation. Thus, it needs an additional method to cope with CT saturation. The advanced compensation algorithm is unaffected by a remanent flux. The proposed relaying algorithm does not need any additional methods for CT saturation and is unaffected by the remanent flux and has the wide operating zone of current differential relays.

A control scheme for stand-alone inverters that utilizes an inductor current observer (ICO) is proposed. The proposed method measures disturbance load currents using a current sensor and it estimates the inductor current using the ICO. The filter parameter mismatch effect is analyzed to confirm the ICO's controllability. The ICO and controllers are designed in a continuous-time domain and transferred to a discrete-time domain with a digital delay. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the ICO using a 5-kVA single-phase stand-alone inverter prototype. The experimental results demonstrate that the observed current matches the actual current and that the proposed method can archive a less than 2.4% total harmonic distortion (THD) sinusoidal output waveform under nonlinear load conditions.

본 논문은 공간벡터펄스 변조법(SVPWM, Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation)을 사용하는 3상 인버터의 새로운 데드타임 직접 보상 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 데드타임 보상방식은 인버터에 인가되는 데드타임을 중간상 전류의 방향에 따라, 유효전압이 인가되는 유효전압벡터 인가시간에서 직접 보상하는 방식이다. 3상 인버터에서 각상에 인가되는 전압의 크기는 유효전압이 인가되는 시간에 의해 결정되고, 데드타임의 영향에 따라, 실제로 유효전압이 인가되는 스위칭 시간은 전류의 방향에 따라 손실이 발생하게 된다. 제안된 방식에서는 실제로 전류의 방향에 따라 손실이 발생하는 유효전압벡터의 인가시간에 직접적으로 손실 시간을 더하여 유효전압벡터의 인가시간을 계산하는 방식으로 별도의 전압오차를 보상하기 위한 제어기와 복잡한 d-q 변환을 필요로 하지 않는 장점이 있다. 제안된 방식은 3상 R-L 부하에 대하여 컴퓨터 모의해석과 실험을 통하여 제안된 방식의 데드타임 보상을 검증하였다.

For a pump or a compressor motor, a high periodic load torque variation is induced by the mechanical works, and it causes system vibration and noise. To minimize these problems, load torque compensation method, injecting periodic torque current, could be utilized. However, with the sensorless control method, which is usually utilized in the pump and compressor for low cost, the periodic torque current degrades the accuracy of the rotor position estimation owing to the inductance variation. This paper analyzes the rotor position and speed estimation error of sensorless control method with constant motor parameters under period loading. Assuming the constant speed by the accurate load torque compensation, the speed error equation is derived in frequency domain with inductance depending on the stator current. Further, it is also shown that the rotor position error could be minimized by compensating the inductance variation. The simulation and experimental results verify that the derived speed error model and the validity of the inductance compensation method.

This paper proposes a dead time compensation method for an AC motor drive using phase current polarity information which is detected based on a digital programmable low-pass filter (PLPF). The polarity detection using the PLPF is an alternative solution of a conventional method which uses a general low-pass filter (LPF) and hysteresis bands in order to avoid jittering due to noises. The PLPF not only adjusts its cutoff frequency according to the synchronous frequency of AC motors but also eliminates a gain attenuation and phase delay which are main problems of the general LPF. Through the PLPF, a fundamental component signal without gain and phase distortions is extracted from the measured raw current signal with noise. By use of the fundamental component, the polarity of current is effectively detected by reducing the hysteresis band. Finally, the proposed method compensates the dead time effects by adding or subtracting average voltage value to voltage references of the controller according to the detected current polarity information. The proposed compensation method is experimentally verified by compared with the conventional method.

This paper proposes DC offset current compensation method of transformerless fuel cell/PV PCS. DC offset current is generated by the unbalanced internal resistance of the switching devices in full bridge topology. The other cause is the sensitivity of the current sensor, which is lower than DSP in resolution. If power converter system has these causes, the AC output current in the inverter will generate the DC offset. In case of transformerless grid-connected inverter system, DC offset current is fatal to grid-side, which results in saturating grid side transformer. Several simulation results show the difficulties of detecting DC offset current. Detecting DC offset current method consists of the differential amplifiers and PWM is compensated by the output of the Op amp circuit with integrator controller. PSIM simulation verifies that the proposed method is simpler and more effective than using low resolution current sensor alone.
