The solar vehicle is in the spotlight in the eco-friendly aspect of photovoltaic system using unlimited solar energy. The solar vehicle uses energy of photovoltaic and battery. The solar vehicle uses stored energy in battery when photovoltaic power is lower than consumption power by solar vehicle and if photovoltaic power is higher than consumption power by solar vehicle then photovoltaic power is stored to battery. To improve use efficiency of photovoltaic, the researches about MPPT method to operate maximum power point and interior permanent magnet synchronous motor(IPMSM)drive system using photovoltaic is necessary. This paper proposes MPPT control algorithm for solar vehicle using new fuzzy control(NFC). In this paper, to reduce switching loss, the DC-DC converter is omitted. The NFC controller can be use instead of PO. The NFC controller is performed MPPT control using solar cell voltage and q -axis current of IPMSM. The output of NFC is command q -axis current of IPMSM and this current is operated IPMSM. The response characteristics of algorithm proposed in this paper is compared response characteristics of conventional PO method by PSIM program and validity of this paper prove using this result.

To improve the capability of instantaneous torque control, a design method of an MRAC-based adaptive current controller for a PMSM servo motor is proposed. In the synchronous frame current controller, a new control inputs can be obtained through the decoupling compensation. Using this, a desired controller bandwidth can be assigned However, the control performance may be degraded due to disturbances caused by the parameter variations or dead time of the switch. To improve these drawbacks, an adaptive current controller is proposed and the design method is obtained using the hyperstability theory. The asymptotic stability is proved and the effectiveness is verified through simulations and experiments using DSP TMS320C31.

This study performs the dynamic modeling and the simulation of variable speed wind power system and implements the models of wind speed, wind turbine & PMSG, and MPPT & pitch control as well. The simulation of wind turbine was performed by using the power coefficient and other simulation parameters which were extracted with reference to the commercial 5MW class wind turbine data. As the result of this simulation, MPPT control is confirmed, maintaining the maximum power coefficient as far as the rated speed 12[m/s]. Over 12[m/s] wind speed, this wind power system makes it possible to keep the stable output by controlling the pitch angle.

Sensorless Vector control of the permanent magnet synchronous motor(PMSM) typically requires knowledge of the PMSM structure and parameters, which in some situations are not readily available or may be difficult to obtain. In this paper, by measuring the currents of the PMSM drive, a neural-network-based rotor position and speed estimation method for PMSM is described. Because the proposed estimator treats the estimated motor speed as the weights, it is possible to estimate motor speed to adapt back propagation algorithm with 2 layered neural network. The proposed control algorithm is applied to PMSM drive system. The operating characteristics controlled by neural networks control are examined in detail.

To decouple the secondary saliencies in sensorless permanent magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) drives, a repetitive control (RC) in the angle domain is proposed. In this paper, the inductance model of a concentrated windings surface-mounted PMSM (cwSPMSM) with strong secondary saliencies is developed. Due to the secondary saliencies, the estimated position contains harmonic disturbances that are periodic relative to the angular position. Through a transformation from the time domain to the angle domain, these varying frequency disturbances can be treated as constant periodic disturbances. The proposed angle-domain RC is plugged into an existing phase-locked loop (PLL) and utilizes the error of the PLL to generate signals to suppress these periodic disturbances. A stability analysis and parameter design guidelines of the RC are addressed in detail. Finally, the proposed method is carried out on a cwSPMSM drive test-bench. The effectiveness and accuracy are verified by experimental results.

In this paper, the fault diagnosis scheme for PMSM drives has been proposed to maintain control performance under a switch open-phase fault of inverter. When the open-phase fault occurs, the stator resistances of PMSM are estimated by Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) in real time and can appear differently according to the location of fault occurrence to check the fault detection and identification. The control algorithm is configured without the additional device and low cost by adding the existing control program. Also, by using motor parameter the estimated stator resistance value improves the control performance of the controller affected by parameter variation. The feasibility of the proposed fault diagnosis algorithm is validated in simulation and experiment.

A significant number of renewable energy systems have been connected to the grids as supplement power source. The renewable energy systems require control algorithm to maintain the power-supply reliability and quality. This paper proposes a novel control algorithm for smart Power Conditioning System (PCS) with harmonics and reactive power compensation. The smart PCS is used to feed Photovoltaic (PV) power to utility and compensate harmonics and reactive power at the same time. The experimentation is carried out on the proposed grid-connected PV generation system, and controlled by digital signal processor. The grid-connected PV generation system injects PV energy into the grid and performs as Active Filter (AF) and Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) without additional devices. The experiment results show that the proposed control algorithm is effective for smart PCS with harmonics and reactive power compensation.

In this paper, a new current based maximum power point tracking (CMPPT) method is proposed for a single phase photovoltaic power conditioning system and the current based MPPT modifies incremental conductance method. The current based MPPT method makes the entire control structure of the power conditioning system simple and uses an inherent current source characteristic of solar cell array. In addition, digital phase locked loop using an all pass filter is introduced to detect phase of grid voltage as well as peak voltage. Controllers about dc/dc boost converter, dc-link voltage, dc/ac inverter is designed for a coordinated operation. Furthermore, PI current control using a pseudo synchronous d-q transformation is employed for grid current control with unity power factor. 3kW prototype photovoltaic power conditioning system is built and its experimental results are given to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control schemes.

This paper proposes an optimal damping control algorithm of the DTI (Direct Two-level Inverter) to miniaturize and reduce the weight of auxiliary power supply for railway vehicles. The conventional auxiliary power supply for railway vehicles uses a DC-DC converter to maintain the inverter input power from the line voltage smoothly. The proposed topology does not use a DC-DC converter for reducing of manufacturing and maintenance costs. It also proposes a DTI topology removed damping resistors that generate ground signal noise in a certain period. At this time, a resonance phenomenon of DC-link voltage occurs due to variation of the inductive load, and a method of controlling the resonance phenomenon of DC-link voltage is required. In order to suppress the resonance phenomenon of the DC-link voltage, at a point before resonance occurs, this paper introduces an algorithm to suppress the resonance phenomenon of DC-link voltage by compensating the resonance component of the q axis voltage of the synchronous reference frame. The proposed algorithm verifies the effect through simulation and experiment.

In this paper, we address an active vibration control system, which suppresses the vibration engaged by magnetically levitated stage. The stage system consists of a levitating platen with four permanent magnetic linear synchronous motors in parallel. Each motor generates vertical force for suspension against gravity and propulsion force horizontally as well. This stage can generate six degrees of freedom motion via the vertical and horizontal forces. In the stage system, which represents the settling-time critical system, the motion of the platen vibrates mechanically. We designed an active vibration control system for suppressing vibration due to the stage moving. The command feedforward with inertial feedback algorithm is used for solving stage system's critical problems. The components of the active vibration control system are accelerometers for detecting stage tables's vibrations, a digital controller with high precise signal converters, and electromagnetic actuators.
