This paper presents a method for reducing the Total Harmonic Distortion(THD) of line-line back_EMF of the IPMSM with distributed winding under the no-load condition. Firstly, the specific harmonic components of line-line back EMF are reduced considering with winding factor. Secondly, THD of line-line back EMF is minimized according to change of pole angle using by Space harmonic Analysis. Finally, the optimal design for minimizing the THD is conducted using response surface methodology with finite element analysis. The validity of the design method dealt with in this paper is demonstrated by comparison between the THD of optimal model and initial model.

As a non-linear time variant system, the four-quadrant line converter of an electric multiple unit (EMU) was expressed by linear time periodic functions near an operating point and modeled by a steady-state harmonic domain matrix. The components were then combined according to the circuit connection and relations of the feedback control loops to form a complete converter model. The proposed modeling method allows the study of the amplitude of harmonic impedances to explore harmonic coupling. Moreover, the proposed method helps provide a better design for the converter controllers, as well as solves the problem in coordination operation between the EMUs and the AC supply. On-site data from an actual $CRH_2$ high-speed train were used to validate the modeling principles presented in the paper.

This paper introduces a novel method of on-line identifying the stator resistance and leakage inductance of dual three phase induction motor (DTPIM). According to the machine mathematical model, the stator resistance and leakage inductance can be estimated using the voltage and current values in harmonic subspace. Thus a method of voltage vector injection in harmonic subspace (VVIHS) is proposed, which causes currents in harmonic space. Then the errors between command and actual harmonic currents are utilized to regulate the machine parameters, including stator resistance and leakage inductance. The principle is presented and analyzed in detail. Experimental results prove the feasibility and validity of proposed method.

In this paper, a new 3 dB branch line hybrid using asymmetric spiral-shaped defected ground structure(DGS) microstrip is proposed. The proposed branch line hybrid suppresses the 2nd and the 3rd harmonic component effectively. Also a DGS $\lambda$/4 bias line that can suppress high frequency harmonics as well as low frequency intermodulation component is proposed. With the harmonic termination tuner using the proposed hybrid and the harmonic blocking bias line, the 2nd and the 3rd harmonic components of the fabricated amplifier that operated in IMT-2000 basestation transmitting band were suppressed up 25 dB and 27 dB, respectively. The proposed harmonic load-pull setup of amplifier is more easily accomplished with proposed circuits than the previous.

In this paper, a new λ/4 bias transmission line that is added dumbbell-shaped defected ground structure(DGS) on ground plane of the conventional λ/4 bias transmission line is proposed. This DGS λ/4 bias transmission line maintains high characteristic impedance, but physical width is wider and length is shorter than that of the conventional bias line. If the proposed bias line is attached on signal transmission line, this bias line can reduces the $3^{rd}$ harmonic signal as well as the$2^{nd}$ harmonic signal. With harmonic reduction characteristics, efficiency and linearity of amplifier are improved. The proposed bias line is adopted in power amplifier on IMT-2000 base-station transmitting band. This paper presents several simulations and experimental results of DGS to show validity of the proposed power amplifier using the new λ/4 bias transmission line. Experimental results represent that the $3^{rd}$ harmonic signal is reduced about 26.5 dB and efficiency is improved about 9.1 % and IMD3 is improved 4.5 dB than the conventional structure.

Acoustic nonlinearity of surface waves is an effective method to evaluate the micro damage on the surface of materials. In this method, the $A_1$ (magnitude of the fundamental wave) and $A_2$ (magnitude of the second-order harmonic wave) are measured for evaluation of acoustic nonlinearity. However, if there is another source of second-order harmonic wave other than the material itself, the linear relationship between $A_1{^2}$ and $A_2$ will not be guaranteed. Therefore, the second-order harmonic generation by another source should be fully suppressed. In this paper, we investigated the initial second-order harmonic generation in narrowband surface waves by multi-line laser beams. The spatial profile of laser beam was considered in the cases of Gaussian and square-like. The temporal profile was assumed to be Gaussian. In case of Gaussian spatial profile, the generation of the initial second-order harmonic wave was inevitable. However, when the spatial profile was square-like, the generation of the initial second-order harmonic wave was able to be fully suppressed at specific duty ratio. These results mean that the multi-line laser beams of square-like profile with a proper duty ratio are useful to evaluate the acoustic nonlinearity of the generated surface waves.

ACL and DCL are have been conventionally used for reducing harmonic current on the input side of an ACMD. The current distortion ratio ITHD using ACL and DCL is only 35% to 85%, therefore to satisfy the IEEE Std. 519 requirements, the line filters has been focused as an alternative means. Those are installed between the AC power supply and the input of the ACMD, and must meet the IEEE Std. 519, be economical and be compact. To contribute to the widespread of using these line filters, we discussed concerning its topologies, simulation results, prototype test results as well as the cost evaluations. It included not only the proposed (NHHF) new hybrid harmonic filters which have both merits of simplicity and economic but also the past (BBHF) broadband harmonic filters and (HHF) hybrid harmonic filters.

Recently, the new Korean Tilting Train Express(TTX) which maintains a speed on the curve railway line is developed. Electric railways, including the TTX, have electrical problems that could bring about serious accidents. For such reasons, the electric railway's electrical problems, electrical harmonic and others, have been studied briskly. Thus, TTX's electrical problems also need leading studies because the new Korean TTX will operate earnestly in 2012. The results could be used hereafter diagnosis of it's components and train conditions. In the paper, electrical signals in TTX operation were measured to analyze electrical harmonic. In addition, after the electrical signals were measured to operating mode (coasting mode, acceleration mode and regenerative breaking mode) respectively in test section(Ho-nam line, Chung-buk line, Jung-ang line and Tae-baek line). The electrical harmonics considered operating modes triparted were analysed and evaluated.

During the restoration process of primary restorative transmission system, the over voltage may happen due to nonlinear interaction between the unloaded transformer and the transmission system. This over voltage is caused by harmonic resonance and can be prevented by damping loads that are connected before restoration process of primary restorative transmission system. But it is very difficult to predict the occurrence possibility of the harmonic resonance previously. This paper analyzes the relationship between the harmonic resonance and the amount of damping loads to prevent the harmonic resonance. This paper calculates the minimum amount of damping loads to prevent harmonic resonance while changing the length of primary restorative transmission line. And this paper confirmed that the amount of damping loads is not proportional to length of transmission line. The result of this paper will be used as important experiment data to predict the occurrence possibility of harmonic resonance previously.

Three-phase controlled converters have many applications in the utility interfacing of renewable energy sources and adjustable speed drives as a rectifier or inverter. The utility line currents of these converters have a high harmonic distortion, which is more than the harmonic standards. This paper introduces a new technique for circulating the third harmonic currents from the dc-link to the line currents to reduce their harmonic contents. The proposed system uses a single-phase PWM converter to control the angle and amplitude of the injection current for each of the firing angle of a three-phase converter. A detailed analysis is introduced to achieve a relationship between the firing angle of the three-phase controlled converter and the power angle of the PWM converter. In addition, a detailed design for the other injection path components is introduced. A simulation and experimental work is introduced to prove the mathematical derivations. Analysis, simulation and experimental results prove the superiority of the proposed technique.
