This paper deals with the parallel operation of several numbers of PWM converters for a high speed railway train application. Several considerations are made to reduce the transformer interaction which can cause a current control problem in severe case. Also, in this paper, novel control strategy is proposed to achieve a harmonic free primary-side current control under a light load condition using one current sensor independent of the number of converters. In addition, the modified predictive current controller, which is suitable to a digital current controller with a relatively large sampling period, is used. Finally, to verify the system validity, digital control system with TMS320C44 micro-processor and small scale simulator are made and tested.

This paper presents an IHQRR (Integrated High Quality Rectifier Regulator) BIFRED (Boost Integrated Flyback Rectifier Energy Storage DC-DC) converter fed BLDC (Brushless DC) motor drive. A reduced sensor topology is derived by utilizing a BIFRED converter to operate in a dual DCM (Discontinuous Conduction Mode) thus utilizing a voltage follower approach for the PFC (Power Factor Correction) and voltage control. A new approach for speed control is proposed using a single voltage sensor. The speed of the BLDC motor drive is controlled by varying the DC link voltage of the front end converter. Moreover, fundamental frequency switching of the VSI's (Voltage Source Inverter) switches is used for the electronic commutation of the BLDC motor which reduces the switching losses in the VSI. The proposed drive is designed for a wide range of speed control with an improved power quality at the AC mains which falls within the recommended limits imposed by international power quality standards such as IEC 61000-3-2.

This paper introduces a high-performance speed control system based on artificial neural networks(ANN) to estimate unknown parameters of a DC servo motor. The goal of this research is to keep the rotor speed of the DC servo motor to follow an arbitrary selected trajectory. In detail, the aim is to obtain accurate trajectory control of the speed, specially when the motor and load parameters are unknown. By using an artificial neural network, we can acquire unknown nonlinear dynamics of the motor and the load. A trained neural network identifier combined with a reference model can be used to achieve the trajectory control. The performance of the identification and the control algorithm are evaluated through the simulation and experiment of nonlinear dynamics of the motor and the load using a typical DC servo motor model.

The starter of the turbo generator is composed of a high speed generator(HSG), an inverter and a boost converter instead of a gearbox, a DC motor and a low-voltage battery in the starter of the turbo shaft generation system. Because turbo generator is needed a high speed motoring at start-up, high speed generator has a low leakage inductance and inverter need a high DC link voltage. In this study, for developing the stater of a turbo generator, a boost converter with a high capacity was developed to convert high voltage from a low battery voltage. And for controlling a high frequency current to be injected to a motor winding with a low leakage inductance, the inverter with a high precision and a high speed operation was designed and for a stable ignition, the starting algorithm of a turbo generator was proposed. Turbo generator was started by the starter developed to verify the performances.

In general, the electronic forklift driven by DC motor drive system is used in the industrial field. Classically, the DC motor is controlled by speed control using proportion control method, by output torque following the load on the plane like a manual operation. But in the industrial field, the electronic forklift is demanded the robust drive mode. Some cases of the mode, there are trouble in torque and speed control following slope capacity. The control is sensitive concerning with slope angle and output speed, various control method is studied for stability of speed control. We apply speed controller for the self-tuning using DSP(TMS320F240) as main controller for high speed processor, embody dynamic characteristic of control compared the PI control to the fuzzy control.

DC motors have widely been used in the field of variable-speed driving system since it is easy to control flux and torque of the motors precisely but it is hard to check and maintain those periodically. In addition, there are difficulties in high power and high speed running due to rectifying limit of commutator, and are a lot of restrictions in installation. Therefore, speed control in BLDC(Brushless DC) motors have seriously been studied for a long while. In this paper, a mathematical model of BLDC motor driven by PWM inverter is developed. Dynamics and steady-state characteristics of BLDC motor are simulated and analyzed with a series of experiments for the parameter estimation : torque, speed, phase voltage and current.

In this paper the algorithm which controls output voltage and power factor independently and the algorithm which controls output voltage with fixed unity power factor are compared and analyzed. These algorithms are applied to single-phase AC/DC parallel are applied to single-phase AC/DC parallel converters for a high speed train system. The control characteristic of the algorithms are compared and analyzed with respect to the output voltage and input power factor when system parameters vary.

A new class of DC-error correcting codes based on convolutional codes is proposed with its performance analysis. The proposed codes can be encoded and decoded using the conventional convolutional encoders and decoders with slight modifications. And the codes have null point at DC and capable of correcting errors. The DC-free error correcting codes are especially well suited for applications in high-speed channels.

Among transport vehicles, Special Vehicles (SVs) are seriously exposed to energy and environmental problems. In particular, elevator cars used when moving objects in high-rise buildings increase the engine's rotational speed (radian per second: RPM). At this time, when the vehicle accelerates rapidly while idling, energy consumption increases explosively along with the engine speed, and a lot of soot is generated. The purpose of this paper is to develop a bi-directional DC-DC converter for control of vehicle power and secondary battery used in an elevated ladder vehicle (EC) used in the moving industry. As a result of this paper, the performance test of the converter was conducted. The charging/discharging state of the converter was simulated using DC power supply and DC electronic load, and a performance experiment was conducted to measure the input/output power of the converter through a power meter. Through this experimental result, it was confirmed that the efficiency was more than 92% in Buck mode and Boost mode at maximum 1.2kW output.

A universal motor is a small dc series machine motor that is designed to operate from an ac machine. The characteristics of universal motors are high no-load and staring torque. Because of the high operating speed, the size of these motors for a given hp rating is typically smaller that other fractional hp ac machine, making it ideal for hand-held tools and appliances where weight, compactness, and speed are importance factors. A phase-angle control with AC drive system gains a high popularity due to their simple implementation, but contains the disadvantage of their poor input power factor, subharmonic current. Pulse width modulation control with DC drive systems increase the power factor as without delay phase angle. This paper analyzed the subharmonic characteristics of the phase angle control system that is controlled by zero voltage crossing similar to traditional method, and the dc chopper system that is used PWM.
