Flicker, also known as voltage fluctuation, is a newest problem of power quality issues, because it is caused by nonlinear loads such as electrical arc furnace and large-scale induction motor, which are country-widely used as the heavy industries of a country develop. An international standard, International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 61000-4-15, was published in 1997 and revised in 2003. With increasing concerns about flicker, its mitigation methods have been also studied. General countermeasures for flicker are divided into three categories: a) enhancing the capacity of supplying system, b) Series elements including series reactor and series capacitor and c) power electronic devices including static VAR compensator (SVC) and static synchronous compensator (STATCOM). This paper introduces how to mitigate the voltage flicker at the point of common coupling (PCC) and presents how to simulate and compare the flicker alleviating effects by each mitigation method, using IEC flickermeter based on the Matlab/Simulink program.

In this paper, we proposes the use of Model Predictive Control (MPC) techniques to enable quadcopter drones to effectively follow paths and maintain flight safety even under dynamic external environments and disturbances. Through simulations conducted in MATLAB/Simulink, the performance of two controllers, PID and MPC, is compared in flight scenarios with disturbances. The proposed design method shows that the MPC controller, when compared to the PID controller, exhibits a difference in the Mean Squared Error between the intended flight path and the actual path of the quadcopter drone. This difference is 0.2 in performance under no disturbance, and it increases to 0.8 under disturbance, demonstrating the improved path following accuracy of the MPC controller.

In this paper, we describe the implementation of debugger that has advanced features for verifying Simulink model. The debugger provided in Simulink has some boring and repetitive work when verifying complicated Simulink models or complicated scenarios. In order to resolve the problems, this paper addresses the issues on the implementation of debugger that provides features such as a convenient feature to compare the simulation output to the expected output for specific input, to monitor system's behavior at specific time, and coverage report function in some or all input scenarios. The proposed debugger is applied to the vending machine model provided by Matlab, demonstrating its feasibility.

This paper presents the modeling method of $3\Phi$ phase-controlled rectifier for the DC motor drive in MATLAB/SIMULINK environment. This method has no need to extend the system mathematically and thus it's easy to integrate the various systems. The whole model consists of $3\Phi$ phase-controlled rectifier block, DC motor block and speed/current controller block. The simulation results show that the model outputs are almost similar to those of the real system and therefore that the presented method is suitable for the research of the closed-loop controlled power electronic systems.

The variable speed drive system of a electric motor is popular in industry due to its economical aspect and simplicity of implementation, comparing with a steam turbine or the other engine driven. For a large pumping load like a feedwater pump rated about or more than 20,000㎾, a synchronous motor could be primarily considered. In this paper, we studied the modelling of a variable speed drive system consisted with a load commutated inverter(LCI) and a brushless sailent pole rotor synchronous motor(SM) using MATLAB/SIMULINK. Simulation was performed with a small SM motor parameters.

In this paper, we propose to research the dynamic Matlab/Simulink model of supercapacitor bank(SCB) for a microgrid application. We demonstrated that this model id sufficient to design the control system of entire power storage system, SCB, the chopper and grid connected converter. The proposed dynamic model is simulated with the help of Matlab/$Simulink^{TK}$ in the MTG/PC/SCB hybrid energy system. The study results show that SCB have a good performance to curb power fluctuation in building microgrid application.

This paper presents an implementation of vector control for SMPMSM using model based controller design in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The model based controller design enables fast development of control system for motor by designing controllers and performing simulation on the GUI (Graphic User Interface) platform, converting program code directly into real-time programs, and then performing tests for the responses from controllers. The controller is designed as PI controller for speed and decoupling PI controller for current. And PWM used space vector modulation method using offset voltage and system stability is also secured by close magnitude overmodulation method, maintaining dynamics of load when it overmodulation. The validity of vector control implemented is verified through simulations and experiments.

본 논문에서는 풍력 발전 시스템의 시뮬레이션을 위한 MATLAB/Simulink 기반의 소프트웨어를 개발 하였다. 풍력 발전 시스템을 6가지의 주요 요소 (바람, 기계 요소, 전기 기기, 제어, 전력 변환기, 기타 요소)로 분류 하여 라이브러리를 개발하였고 각각의 모델들은 해당하는 대수방정식 혹은 미분방정식으로 표현하여 구현하였다. 최근 대형화 되고 있는 풍력 터빈의 추이를 고려하여 대형의 풍력 터빈에서 사용되는 개별 피치 제어 모델을 선형화 하여 구현하였다. 또한, 상태 변수가 많은 전기기기 모델들은 미리 컴파일 된 형태의 모델을 추가함으로써 빠른 속도로 시뮬레이션이 가능하다.
