A novel digital control algorithms are developed for an active power filter (APF) using a pulse-width modulated (PWM) rectifier with current link. A main control algorithm compensating both the reactive power and harmonic currents with fast dynamic response is derived through a vector approach. A space vector modulation technique is developed for the PWM rectifier in order to generate the desired current vector of the APF. The system generates no acoustic noise and it is implemented with a minimal control hardware structure using the Intel 80196 single-chip microcomputer. Experimental results show that the proposed scheme gives good dynamic and static performance for the APF system.

Due to several advantages of Pulse Width Modulation(PWM) Converter, such as unity power factor operation, elimination of low-order harmonics and regeneration of motor braking energy to source, the application range of PWM Converter has been rapidly extended in industrial application. Nowadays, vector control algorithm and space vector PWM(SVPWM) method are applied to improve the performances of PWM Converter, but vector control algorithm and SVPWM require to use Microprocessor and other digital devices in hardware, causing costly and somewhat large dimension system. In every practical application of energy conversion equipments, the design and implementation should be carried out considering cost and performance. High performance and low cost is the best choice for energy conversion equipments. So, this paper presents the practical design method and implementation results of 3-phase PWM Converter with analog hysteresis current controller, and verifies the performances of unit power factor operation and energy regeneration operation via experimental results.

To obtain phase currents information in AC drives, shunt sensing technology is known to show great performance in cost-effectiveness and therefore it is widely used in low cost applications. However, shunt sensing methods are unable to acquire phase currents in certain operation conditions. This paper deals with the derivation of the boundary conditions for phase current reconstruction in three-shunt sensing inverters and proposes a voltage injection method to expand the measurable areas. As the boundary conditions are deeply dependent on the switching patterns, they are typically analyzed on the voltage vector plane for space vector pulse width modulation (SVPWM) and discontinuous pulse width modulation (DPWM). In the proposed method, the voltage injection and its compensation are conducted within one sampling period. This guarantees fast current reconstruction and the injected voltage is decided so as to minimize the current ripple. In addition to the voltage injection method, a sampling point shifting method is also introduced to improve the boundary conditions. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the boundary condition derivation and the effectiveness of the proposed voltage injection method.

This paper proposes a speed-sensorless induction motor control system using a rotor speed compensation. To explain the proposed system, this paper describes an induction motor model in the synchronous reference frame for the vector control. The rotor flux is estimated by the rotor flux observer using the reduced-dimensional state estimator technique. The estimated rotor speed is directly obtained from the electrical frequency, the slip frequency, and the rotor speed compensation with the estimated q-axis rotor flux. The error of the rotor time constant is indirectly reflected in the rotor speed compensation using the compensation of the flux error angle. To precisely estimate the rotor flux, the actual value of the stator resistance, whose actual variation is reflected, is derived. An implementation of pulse-width modulation (PWM) pulses using an effective space vector modulation (SVM) is briefly mentioned. For fast calculation and improved performance of the proposed algorithm, all control functions are implemented in software using a digital signal processor (DSP) with its environmental circuits. Also, it is shown through experimental results that the proposed system gives good performance for the speed-sensorless induction motor control.

This paper presents a study on DSP(TMS320F240) controller design for multi-axes transportation system using BLDC servo motor. This BLDC servo motor controller was realized with DSP(Digital Signal Processor) and IPM (Intelligent Power Module). The multi-axes transportation system needs torque, speed, position control of servo motor for variable action. This paper implements those servo control with vector control and space vector modulation technique. As CPU of controller DSP(TMS320F240) is adopted because, it has PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) waveform generator, A/D(Analog to Digital) converter, SPI(Serial Peripheral Interface) port and input/output port etc. The controller of multi-axes transportation system consists of 3-level hierarchy structure that main host PC manages three sub DSP system which transfer downword command and are monitoring the states of end servo controllers. Each sub DSP system operates eight BLDC servo controllers which control BLDC servo motor using DSP and IPM Between host system and middle digital signal processor communicate with RS-422, between main processor and controller communicate with SPI port.

For revolving and elevating a turret of a tank, we substitute an existing oil pressure system with an electric system using a motor and applied the vector control method to this system. A switching method of an inverter for providing desired sinusoidal current to each phase of a motor, we adopted min-max pulse width modulation method which takes less computation time, rather than space vector pulse width modulation method. We designed a digital filter and applied it to the control system. Developed current controller is verified it's performance through a current control test, speed control test, frequency response and tracking a profile of speed test.

일반적인 전동기부하는 저속에서 큰 토크를 필요로 하지 않으므로, 인버터로 전동기를 구동하고자 할 때는 낮은 평균전압이 필요하다. 그러나 전력전자 소자의 제한된 스위칭 주파수, 단락 방지를 위한 데드타임 그리고 스위치나 다이오드 도통전압 등으로 인하여, 전류제어 루프 내에는 비선형성이 존재한다. 이러한 비선형성은 디지털 방식의 PWM에서 저전압을 합성할 때 현저하게 나타나는데 결과적으로 교류전동기의 저속운전을 어렵게 한다. 본 논문에서는 기존 디지털방식 PWM의 비선형성을 모델링 하고 그 비선형성을 감소시킬 수 있는 공간벡터 변조기법을 제시하였다.

This paper proposes a novel current control method of three-phase PWM rectifiers without phase current sensors. The features of this method are to reconstruct phase currents by using switching pattern of space vector modulation and to estimate phase currents by a predictive state observer for practical applications. Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed system is nearly the same as that of sensor-based system.
