This paper proposes a four times DC-link voltage PWM power converter, which is constructed by four cascade connected power switching devices. such as IGBT. These four switching devices are controlled by a sinusoidal PWM method to obtain a DC-link voltage. which is higher than 4 times the peak supply voltage, and to suppress input current harmonic components. achieving a sinusoidal current waveform with less than $3[\%]$ distortion. Which is also constructed by four cascade connected IGBT. by the simulation result.

In this paper, the RCF method is applied to analyze small signal stability of power systems including thyristor controlled FACTS equipments such as SVC. The eigenvalue sensitivity analysis algorithm in discrete systems by the RCF method are presented and applied to the power system including SVC. As a result of simulation, the RCF analysis method is very powerful to calculate the newly generated unstable oscillation modes precisely after periodic switching operations of SVC. Also the RCF analysis method enabled to precisely calculate eigenvalue sensitivity coefficients of dominant oscillation modes after periodic switching operations. These simulation results are very different from those of the conventional continuous system analysis method such as the state space equation method.

This paper presents a new ZCS-PWM high frequency inverter. Zero current switching operation is achieved in the whole load range by using a simple auxiliary reverse blocking switch in parallel with series resonant capacitor. Dual duty cycle control scheme is used to provide a wide range of high frequency AC output power regulation that is important in many high frequency inverter applications. It found that a complete soft switching operation can be achieved even for low power setting ranges by introducing high-frequency dual duty cycle control scheme. The proposed high frequency inverter is more suitable for consumer induction heating(IH) applications. The operation and control principle of the proposed high frequency inverter are described and verified through simulated results.

This paper proposes current-fed bi-directional DC-DC converter using a resonance (CF-BCR) with wide output voltage range. The steady state analysis and operation principles of CF-BCR are introduced. To increase the output voltage range with satisfying soft switching condition, switching frequency, duty and number of times of the resonance are controlled. The proposed converter and its control method are verified by theoretical analysis and PSIM simulation.

본 논문에서는 다중 반송파 정현 펄스폭 변조방식으로 제어되는 Cascaded H-bridge 멀티레벨 PWM 인버터의 스위칭 손실 저감을 위한 스위칭 패턴을 제안한다. 부하 담당 전력이 상대적으로 큰 H-bridge 모듈의 스위치는 저주파의 기본 출력 전압 레벨을 형성하도록 동작시키며, 부하 담당 전력이 상대적으로 작은 H-bridge 모듈의 스위치는 고주파의 PWM 파형을 기본파에 가감하여 출력전압 파형이 사인파에 가까워지도록 스위칭 패턴을 형성한다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 스위칭 패턴을 PD, APOD 방식의 다중 반송파 정현 펄스폭 변조방식으로 구현하여 Cascaded H-bridge 멀티레벨 PWM 인버터에 적용시키고 실험을 통해 기존의 스위칭 패턴에 비해 스위칭 손실이 개선됨을 증명한다.

In this paper, with loosely coupled transformer series-parallel resonant type DC/DC converter is analyzed. To get more efficient operating mode of the series-parallel resonant type DC/DC converter, theoretical analysis using normalized parameters are accepted. The proposed converter must be operated in Pulse Frequency Modulation(PFM) switching pattern for the Zero Voltage Switching(ZVS) operation. According to PFM control method, the output voltage of the proposed circuit can be controlled.

In this paper, a new type of active snubber was proposed to lower the excessive rated voltage of the clamp capacitor which was a problem in the conventional circuit by applying auxiliary winding into the active snubber. A simplified equivalent circuit of the proposed snubber was derived by applying it to QR flyback converter, and the equivalent circuits for each switch state was shown under the steady-state condition. In addition, the maximum voltage of the clamp capacitor as well as the main switch was found by using the steady-state equations. In particular, it was found that the clamp capacitor voltage could be controlled by the auxiliary winding ratio. In order to verify the utility and practicality of the proposed converter with auxiliary winding type active snubber circuit, a prototype with an output voltage of 19V and a maximum load current of 6A was produced and the results were reported.
