This paper presents a novel three-phase current-fed Pulse Width Modulation converter with switched capacitor type resonant DC link commutation circuit operating PWM pattern strategy under a design consideration of low-pass filter, which can operate on the basis of the principle of zero current soft switching commutation. In the first place, the steady state operating principle of this converter with a new resonant DC link snubber circuit is described in connection with the equivalent operation circuit, together with the practical design procedure of the switched-capacitor type resonant DC link circuit is discussed from a theoretical viewpoint on the basis of a design example for high-power applications. The actively delayed time correction method to compensate distorted currents due to a relatively long resonant commutation time is newly implemented in the open loop control scheme so as to acquire the new optimum PWM pattern. Finally, the experiment of set-up in laboratory system of this converter is concretely demonstrated herein to confirm a zero current soft-switching commutation of this converter. The comparative evaluations between current-fed hard switching PWM and soft-switching PWM converters are carried out from a viewpoint of their PWM converter characteristics.

This paper proposes a fault-tolerant strategy for indirect matrix converter (IMC) based on the concept of four-leg matrix converter in case of an open-circuit fault in the inverter stage. The proposed strategy can maintain the same output performance as the healthy condition during the faulty condition. Some simulated results are provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

In this paper, a novel control strategy for PWM current source converter and inverter is proposed, applying a multivariable state feedback control. The PWM converter controls line current to be sinusoidal and make input power factor unity. In addition, the modulation index control of dc link current is carried out, which produces lower loss of switching devices. Since the voltage control of inverter output filter capacitor is performed a decoupling of the d-q current of the induction motor is well retained. With the proposed algorithm, both high dynamic responses and satisfactory static performance can obtained.

In this paper, a novel control strategy of curretn source PWM converter and inverter system for induction motor dirves is proposed. The PWM converter controls line current to be sinusoidal and makes input power factor unity. In the inverter part, a minor voltage control loop is incorporated in the current control looop in order to suppress unstale resonance between the filter capacitor and the motor leakage inductance and to keep the stator voltage under the rated value. In additon, the modulation index control of the inverter currents ripples and inverter loss. With the proposed algorithm, both high dynamic responses and satisfactory static performance can be obtained.

3상 4레그(leg) VSI(Voltage Source Inverter)는 독립된 3개의 출력전압을 합성할 수 있다. 따라서 전압 합성에 있어서 3개의 자유도를 갖는다. 본 논문에서는 3상 4레그 VSI를 위한 PWM방법에 대해서 설명한다. 3상 4레그 VSI를 위한 기존의 PWM기술은 3-D SVPWM으로 그 구현 방법에 있어서 많은 양의 계산과 테이블을 필요로 하였다. 하지만, 본 논문에서 제안 한 방법은 3상 3레그 VSI경우에 적용되었던 옵셋(offset) 전압의 개념을 사용한다. 또한 단일 반송파를 이용하여 폴(Pole)전압과 비교함으로써 PWM을 구현하기 때문에 그 적응이 매우 간단하다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 3-D SVPWM과 제안한 방법이 해석적으로 동일한 방법임을 증명하였으며, 3상 4레그 VSI에서 합성가능한 3자유도의 전압범위를 계산하였다. 마지막으로 이를 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

In this paper, a carrier-based pulse with modulation (PWM) strategy for three-phase three-level inverter is dealt with, which can keep the common mode voltage constant with minimized switching frequency. The voltage gain and the switching frequency in overall operating ranges including overmodulation are investigated and the analytic equations are presented. Finally, the leakage current reduction effect is confirmed by carrying out simulation and experiment. It will be pointed out that the leakage current cannot be perfectly eliminated because of the dead time.

This paper suggested a new sensorless driving strategy for brushless de motor which can improve the conventional degradation of highspeed operating performances, lowspeed operating performances and starting performances caused by applying general single pwm switching frequency. By varying PWM switching frequency during operating time, the proposed method can get some desired upper performances. For confirming the validity of the proposed method, the sensorless driving system is implemented with an rPM module and 87c196MC micro controller.

In this paper, a novel DC link voltage control scheme for a single-phase PWM converter is proposed. The main idea of the control scheme is eliminating the effect of dc link voltage harmonics by using power balance of input side and output side. With the proposed strategy, faster transient response than that of conventional method using low-pass filter can be obtained. In addition, a half period current control, based at equal switching frequency, is proposed. The validity of the proposed scheme is verified by simulation results for GTO PWM converter system.

This paper presents the linearized optimal PWM techniques for current source GTO converter. This proposed method is to linearize an optimal PWM modulation strategy so that the turn-on/off-periods of the GTO switches can be computed on-line in real-time for any modulation index. This allows the rapid and continuous regulation of the DC output current while producing the sinusoidal AC input current waveform and unit power factor.

This paper proposes a control method for three-phase PWM rectifier using only single current sensor in DC link. A PWM modulation strategy for reconstructing three phase current from the DC link current is given. The states of the rectifier switch are modified so that all phase currents can be reconstructed in a switching period although one of active vectors is applied only for a short time. Therefore, a novel current control using an adjustment scheme of the modulation signal for a three-phase PWM rectifier will be discussed, and verified with the experimental results.
