This paper described a dc power system, which can generate the excessive do power form do bus line to ac source in substation for traction system. The proposed regeneration inverter system for dc traction can be used as both an inverter and an active power filter(APF). As a regeneration inverter mode, it can recycle regenerative energy caused by decelerating tractions and as an active power filter mode, it can compensate for harmonic distortion produced by the rectifier substation.

In the respect of energy saving and reusing, it is necessary to reduce greenhouse gases emission and to enhance the operation efficiency in electric railway system. Recently, as the power electronics technologies are advanced, some countries have focused on the regenerative inverter to use regeneration energy on each line. When the electric tractions are stopped or slowed down, it is useful to supply the surplus energy to the power source by regenerative system, which increases its energy efficiency. Also, the generated energy can be supply to other tractions or equipments inside traction. Thus, it may help reduce construction cost of additional power plants. The purpose of this study is to describe the development status of the regenerative inverter system which suppress extra DC-line voltage and regenerate the energy instead of using a resister.

We have developed a compact high frequency switch mode converter (HFSMC) power supply with DC 50 kV output voltage and 10 kW output power. Since the inverter circuit uses 25 kHz rescharging scheme, the current is flowing with t kHz. For the efficient output voltage transform performed a simple design process using the transformer principle and the commercial specification. For the DC 50 kV output, we employed 7 pa windings of secondary coils for the series stac connection of the output with full-bridge rectifi In this paper the design detail and the test re the high frequency transformer together with HFSMC power supply are presented.

This paper presents the magnetic fields shielding properties of the light rail transit which are produced by the ripple-shaped currents in the power lines. To analyze these properties, the equivalent circuit model of the DC power supply system at the light rail transit system was induced by MATLAB-SIMULINK, and with the calculated results of the ripple-shaped currents, the magnetic fields shielding properties of the light rail transit were analyzed. The results are as follows. First The frequency of the ripple-shaped currents is 200[Hz] and its magnitude is 1.5[A]. Second the magnetic fields produced by the ripple-shaped currents of the DC power supply systems are well shielded by the aluminum made body of the light rail transit.

In this study, we have developed the SMPS(Switched-mode power supply) power module for the medical kit. It is used the medical kit for improved supplying power better than the existing power module in performance, safety and reliability. The developed SMPS(Switched-mode power supply) is composed of the three fundamental electronic circuits, first one is for converting AC power to DC power, second one is for converting to high frequency, and the other is for absorbing noise frequency and preventing malfunction. It is possible for developed SMPS module to enlarge applications for PC, home appliances, switchboard as well as medical instruments.

This paper proposes the feedforward compensation method of output voltage with 3phase AC/DC PWM converter on DC distribution system for improved response. AC/DC PWM converter on DC distribution is required power supply of high quality because of renewable energy sources and load links. In general, Feedforward compensation method of 3phase AC/DC PWM converter receives the sensor input to the output current, load power. Resulting, error of the sensing values and communication cause time delay. Therefore, Feedforward compensation method through only the output voltage is proposed in this paper. The feedforward compensation method through only the output voltage can be applied to the two-level AC/DC PWM converters, as well as multi-level converter or inverter.

Induction cooking application with multiple loads need high power inverters and appropriate control techniques. This paper proposes an inverter configuration with buck-boost converter for multiple load induction cooking application with independent control of each load. It uses one half-bridge for each load. For a given dc supply of $V_{DC}$, one more $V_{DC}$ is derived using buck-boost converter giving $2V_{DC}$ as the input to each half-bridge inverter. Series resonant loads are connected between the centre point of $2V_{DC}$ and each half-bridge. The output voltage across each load is like that of a full-bridge inverter. In the proposed configuration, half of the output power is supplied to each load directly from the source and remaining half of the output power is supplied to each load through buck-boost converter. With buck-boost converter, each half-bridge inverter output power is increased to a full-bridge inverter output power level. Each half-bridge is operated with constant and same switching frequency with asymmetrical duty cycle (ADC) control technique. By ADC, output power of each load is independently controlled. This configuration also offers reduced component count. The proposed inverter configuration is simulated and experimentally verified with two loads. Simulation and experimental results are in good agreement. This configuration can be extended to multiple loads.

In this paper, a rectenna for wireless power transmission at 900MHz is proposed. Rectenna is a device transforming RF power into DC power and it may consist of a antenna, rectifying and charging circuits. In this paper, we designed a slot antenna to receive 900MHz signal, a rectifying circuit of about 40% efficiency at 0dBm input, and a charging circuit to store a weak power signal and supply constant voltage to load. From the experiment using a RFID reader as a transmitter for 1W power, it was found that the proposed rectenna receiving about 0dBm power can supply 3.3V constant voltage to 50$k{\Omega}$ load during 280sec.

A new high efficiency DC/DC converter is proposed, which is derived from the conventional half-bridge converter. The proposed converter has good ZVS condition compared with the conventional half-bridge converter, and shows a high efficiency by solving the unbalance voltage stress and current stress problem of secondary rectifier diode of the conventional half-bridge converter. In this paper, the basic operations of the proposed converter is analyzed compared with that of the conventional half-bridge converter, and the excellent performance of the proposed converter is verified by the experimental results with the 42W prototype of the power supply for PDP Sustain Driver.

본 논문에서는 연료전지자동차의 저전압 배터리 충 방전을 위한 새로운 3상 양방향 DC-DC 컨버터를 제안한다. 12V 저전압측의 높은 전류정격 때문에 기존의 풀브리지 방식으로는 적절한 스위치의 선정이 어렵지만 제안한 3상의 전류분배로 스위치의 선정과 변압기의 제작이 용이하다. 그리고 제안한 변압기 결선으로 턴비가 작아져 누설인덕턴스가 작아진다. 또한 비대칭 PWM에 의한 모든 스위치의 ZVS 턴온과 저전압 측에서는 동기정류 방식을 적용하여 효율을 상승시켰다. 제안하는 컨버터의 동작원리를 기술하고 3.5kW 시작품을 제작하여 실험을 통해 본 방식의 타당성을 검증한다.
