In this paper, improved direct torque control(DTC) of five-phase induction motor(IM) is proposed. Due to the additional degrees of freedom, five-phase IM drives present unique characteristics. One of them is the ability of enhancing the torque producing capability of the motor. Also five-phase motor drives possess many others advantage compared with the traditional three-phase motor drives. Such as, reducing the amplitude and increasing of frequency of torque pulsation, reducing amplitude of current per phase without increasing the voltage per phase and increasing the reliability. The direct torque control method is advantageous when it is applied to the five-phase IM. Because the five-phase inverter provides 32 space vectors in comparison to 8 space voltage vectors by the three-phase inverter. The 32 space voltage vectors are divided into three groups according to their magnitudes. The characteristics and dynamic performance of traditional five-phase DTC are analyzed and new DTC for five-phase IM is proposed. Therefore, a more precise flux and torque control algorithm for the five-phase IM drives can be suggested and explained. For presenting the superior performance of the pro-posed direct torque control, experimental results is presented using a 32 bit fixed point TMS320F2812 digital signal processor

In this research, the characteristics of Brush-less DC (BLDC) motor in accordance with winding connection method, both Y-connection and D -connection, has been identified with design methodology simply. BLDC motor has been designed for both winding connections, and their torque analysis has been performed considering ideal current source analysis and voltage source analysis with 6-step control. In addition, to reduce torque ripple of BLDC motor, caused by coil inductance, on voltage source analysis with 6-step control, we have proposed suitable control method which is Phase Advance Control. It is verified that the torque ripple has been decreased by virtue of phase advance control, advancing and widening conduction angle of switching, via performance analysis by Finite Element Analysis.

This paper presents a new current control method to reduce the torque ripple due to phase commutation, when the unipolar PWM method is applied for the phase current control of brushless DC motor. Phase commutation bring about an instantaneous change in the average voltage of conducting phase so that current undulates, and this undulating current generates torque ripple. In this paper, we analyze average voltage variations of conducting phase in commutation period with PWM pattern and design current controller to compensate average variations. In addition, we prove the validity of proposed method by experimental results.

In this paper, the way that input voltage and input line current as a control variable is provided as one unit is projected. Till no, have denied with three phase balanced load. But, in that case, total power factor compensation is difficult, for to control each phase at unbalanced load. Therefor, in this paper suggest of the scheme that three phase unbalanced load is controlled by each phase and input total power factor is compensated unit input factor. therefore, in this paper suggest that three phase unbalanced load is controlled and the method in compensation of unit input factor to be attended by unbalanced load. Besides, the object of control is calculating quantity for input voltage and input line current for the point at issuse make to improve of control method at unbalanced load. As a result, control system of each phase could maintain as a unit input total power factor has been state diviation error of 2% with unbalanced load.

The brushless DC motor with trapezoidal back emfs has torque ripple due to phase commutation. The torque ripple generates noise and vibration and cause errors in position control so this makes the brushless DC motor less suitable for high performance servo applications. In this paper, we propose a new current control method to reduce the torque ripple due to commutation, when the unipolar PWM method is applied for the phase current control of brushless DC motor.

A robust control method for robots in presented. In this method, a phase-lag controller is used for reducing the effect of the unknown payload without the measurement of joint accelerations and torque/force. Simulation results for the lower 3 joints of PUMA 560 show considerable reduction of position errors due to the unknown payload, compared to the computed-torque method.

A novel equivalent flux sliding-mode observer (SMO) is proposed for dual three-phase interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (DT-IPMSM) drive system in this paper. The DT-IPMSM has two sets of Y-connected stator three-phase windings spatially shifted by 30 electrical degrees. In this method, the sensorless drive system employs a flux SMO with soft phase-locked loop method for rotor speed and position estimation, not only are low-pass filter and phase compensation module eliminated, but also estimation accuracy is improved. Meanwhile, to get the regulator parameters of current control, the inner current loop is realized using a decoupling and diagonal internal model control algorithm. Experiment results of 2MW-level DT-IPMSM drives system show that the proposed method has good dynamic and static performances.

This work deals with a switching method for minimizing overcurrent in a three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter with frequency modulation. Generally, a three-phase interleaved DC-DC converter is used to reduce a current ripple component. The combined operation of three-phase and two-phase converters can significantly reduce the ripple component. However, the conventional PWM method cannot solve severe overcurrent during phase transfer or frequency variation for power control. To overcome this problem, this work proposes a new PWM switching method. A 3 kW DC-DC power converter is designed and implemented, and the converter is operated in discontinuous current mode with varying switching frequencies for power control. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the proposed switching method. The proposed switching method can be widely used in the field of current ripple reduction for three-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converters.

Generally, in a single-phase energy storage system (ESS) for households, AC ripple component with twice the fundamental frequency exists inevitably in the DC link voltage of single-phase PCS. In the grid-connected mode of a single-phase inverter, the AC ripple component in the DC link voltage causes low-order harmonics on grid-side current that deteriorates power quality on an AC grid. In this work, a control system adopting a feedforward controller is established to eliminate the AC ripple interference on the DC link side. Optimal battery nominal voltage design method is also proposed by considering the voltage loss and AC ripple voltage on DC link side in a single-phase ESS. Finally, the control system and battery nominal voltage design method are verified through simulations and experiments.

A digital current control scheme using virtual d-q transformation for a boost single-phase power factor correction (PFC) converter is proposed. The use of virtual d-q transformation in single-phase power converters is known to improve current control performance. However, the conventional virtual d-q transformation-based digital current control scheme cannot be directly applied to the boost single-phase PFC converter because the current and average voltage waveforms of the inductor used in the converter are not sinusoidal. To cope with this problem, this study proposes a virtual sinusoidal signal generation method that converts the current and average voltage waveform of the inductor into a sinusoidal waveform synchronized with the grid. Simulation and experimental results are provided to show that the virtual d-q transformation-based digital current control is successfully applied to the boost single-phase PFC converter with the aid of the proposed virtual sinusoidal signal generation method.
