This paper presents an improved hys- teresis current control method for three-phase PWM power inverters using 3-level comparator. Hysteresis current controller using 3-level comparator has an advantage of constant switching frequency compared with conventional hysteresis current controller. However, this method has disadvantage that the longer sampling period, the larger current error because the switching is performed without considering current error magnitude of each phase. The proposed method improves the control performance by selecting the optimum switching pattern in which the magnitudes of current errors are considered introducing space vector concept. Simulation results using Matlab/Simulink show that the proposed control method reduces current error keeping the merit of previous hysteresis current control method.

This paper is to study a modified hysteresis band current control technique for keeping the fixed switching frequency. The control technique is applied to an brushless DC motor(BLDCM). This paper gives an analysis of the modified hysteresis band with isolated neutral case and the PI controller with current limiter in forward loop; their characteristics are studied by simulation. The proposed control technique is implemented by using a microprocessor-based system.

This paper presents a novel switching pattern current control (SP-CC) scheme, which is applied in three-phase voltage-source converters (VSCs). This scheme can select the optimal output switching pattern (SP) by referring the basic principle of space vector modulation (SVM). Moreover, SP-CC is a method without a carrier wave. Thus, the implementation process is concise and easy. When compared with the conventional hysteresis current control (C-HCC) and the space vector-based hysteresis current control (SV-HCC), the SP-CC has the performances of faster dynamic response of C-HCC and less switching number (SN) of SV-HCC. In addition, it has less harmonic contents in the three-phase current, along with a lower switching loss and a higher efficiency. Moreover, the hysteresis bandwidth and Clarke conversion are not required in the SP-CC. The effectiveness of the presented SP-CC is verified by simulation and experimental test results. In addition, the advantages of the SP-CC, when compared with the C-HCC and SV-HCC, are verified as well.

This paper elucidates a hysteresis current controller for enhancing the performance of static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) using cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter. Due to the rising power demand and growing conventional generation costs a new alternative in renewable energy source is gaining popularity and recognition. A five level single phase cascaded multilevel inverter with two separated dc sources, which is energized by photovoltaic - wind hybrid energy source. The voltages across the each dc source is balanced and standardized by the proposed hysteresis current controller. The performance of STATCOM is analyzed by connecting with grid connected system, under the steady state & dynamic state. To reduce the Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and to improve the output voltage, closed loop hysteresis current control is achieved using PLL and PI controller. The performance of the proposed system is scrutinized through various simulation results using matlab/simulink and hardware results are also verified with simulation results.

Hysteresis current control is one of the simplest techniques used to control currents for high speed drive systems, because of its simplicity of implementation, fast current control response, and inherent peak current limiting capability. However the conventional fixed-band hysteresis control has a variable switching frequency throughout the fundamental period, and consequently the load current harmonics spreaded on the wide frequency range. In this paper, a simple, novel alterative approach is proposed for a variable-hysteresis band current controller which uses feedback techniques to achieve constant switching frequency with good dynamic response. The method is easily implemented in hardware, the resultant controller is easily tuned to a particular load, and has good immunity to variation in PV parameter and dc supply voltage.

Existing current-controlled inverters with hysteresis controller (HC) result in the dependence of the inverter on its load characteristics, poor inverter utilization due to too much or too little supply voltage, and the current error in the hysteresis band(HB) which causes deterioration of operation of the supplied motor. In this paper, techniques and results of modeling the operation of current-controlled three phase power inverter with HC are presented. Four symmetrical control schemes are considered: the so called three independent control, three semi-dependent control(a), three semi-dependent control(b) and three dependent control each using three current controller. The dependence of the inverter on its load has been studied. To overcome this difficulty, an inner feedback control has been introduced and optimum parameter has been determined. With the addition of an inner feedback control, adjustment of the switching frequency to a desired value is possible. Also, this modification improves operating characteristics of inverter by enforcing a switching pattern of low dependence on the load, resulting in significantly improved quality of the output current.

배전급 STATCOM(Distribution-network STATic synchronous COMpensator)에 적용 가능한 공간 벡터 변조 (Space Vector Modulation, SVM) 기법을 이용한 히스테리시스 전류제어기를 제안하였다. 히스테리시스 전류제어기는 빠른 응답 특성, 쉬운 구현, 파라미터 변화에 대한 둔감성 등 많은 장점에도 불구하고 높은 스위칭 주파수와 제한되지 않는 전류 오차 때문에 스위칭 주파수에 영향을 받는 배전급 STATCOM 전류제어기로는 적합하지 않았다. 또한 전압 벡터의 인가방식에서도 뚜렷한 근거가 없어 전류오차가 제한되지 않았다. 이에 본 논문에서는 구역판별기, SVM, 그리고 외부와 내부 히스테리시스 제어기를 이용하여 높은 스위칭 주파수를 저감하고 특정 밴드 내에서 전류 오차를 줄인 개선된 SVM 기반의 히스테리시스 전류제어기를 제안하고 모의실험을 통해 제안한 기법의 유효성을 입증하였다.

The aim of this paper is to increase the performance of hysteresis compensation for Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) actuators by using inverse Preisach model in closed-loop control system. This is used to reduce hysteresis effects and improve accuracy for the displacement of SMA actuators. Firstly, hysteresis is identified by numerical Preisach model implementation. The geometrical interpretation from first order transition curves is used for hysteresis modeling. Secondly, the inverse Preisach model is formulated and incorporated in closed-loop PID control system in order to obtain desired current-to-displacement relationship with hysteresis reducing. The experimental results for hysteresis compensation by using this method are also shown in this paper.

This paper introduces two different types of AC current control methods for an indirect vector controlled induction motor using a matrix converter. The proposed methods combine the advantages of matrix converters with the advantages of the indirect vector AC current control methods. The first proposed method explains the basic idea of the hysteresis current control method for matrix converters and shows its capability and stability in comparison to the conventional method usually used for VSI. With the aid of the special configuration of the matrix converter, we also propose another current method which is modified from the first one in order to reduce both current ripple and torque ripple. Simulation results have verified the feasibility and the effectiveness of the proposed methods.

Due to the high efficiency and compact mechanical structure, direct drive variable speed generators are used for power conversion in wind turbines. The wind energy conversion system (WECS) considered in this paper consists of a permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG), uncontrolled rectifier, dc-dc boost converter controlled with maximum power point tracking (MPPT) and adaptive hysteresis controlled voltage source inverter (VSI). For high utilization of the converter's power capability and stabilizing voltage and power flow, constant DC-link voltage is essential. Step and search MPPT algorithm which senses the rectified voltage ($V_{DC}$) alone and controls the same is used to effectively maximize the output power. The adaptive hysteresis band current control is characterized by fast dynamic response and constant switching frequency. With MPPT and adaptive hysteresis band current control in VSI, the DC link voltage is maintained constant under variable wind speeds and transient grid currents respectively.
