전기자동차 (EV)에서 구동용 모터의 토크 제어를 위한 인버터에는 제어 연산 및 고장 진단 기능을 수행하기 위한 MCU가 있으며, MCU는 상위 제어기 차량 제어 유닛 (VCU)에게 현재 모터 및 인버터의 상태를 주기적으로 전달하고, 현재 차량 주행에 적합한 토크 지령을 받아 토크 제어를 수행하게 된다. 이를 위해 MCU는 전류, 전압 및 위치 센서의 값을 읽어 제어를 수행하게 되며, 제어의 결과 값으로 pulse width modulation (PWM)을 생성하여 이를 통해 모터에 전압을 공급하게 된다. 즉 차량의 구동에 있어 PWM 신호는 가장 중요한 부분이다. 하지만 생산 불량 또는 진동에 의한 납땜 불량 또는 MCU 전원 고장 등으로 MCU에 고장이 발생하게 되면 이상 PWM을 생성하게 되고 정상적인 토크 제어가 불가능해진다. 이때 안전하게 EV를 정지 시키는 알고리즘이 필요하게 되며, 이를 수행 할 supervisor control unit (SCU)가 인버터 컨트롤 보드에 추가되어야 한다. 본 논문에서는 고속으로 주행하던 차량에서 메인 MCU가 고장 날 경우에 안전하게 EV를 정차시키는 방법에 대해 다루었다.

This paper proposes a new topology with active switched-capacitor and switched-inductor impedance network, which can obtain a high boost factor with small shoot-through time. The proposed topology uses an active switched capacitor and switched-inductor impedance network in order to couple the main circuit and input dc source for boosting the output voltage. The proposed topology contains all advantages of the classical Z-source inverter. Comparing with other topologies, the proposed topology uses lesser component and the voltage boost inversion ability significantly increases. The theoretical analysis, pulse width modulation control strategies, and a comparison with classical ZSI have been given in this paper. Both simulation and experimental results will be presented to verify the advantages of the proposed topology.

The paper presents a sensorless speed control of interior permanent magnet synchronous motors using an adaptive integral binary observer in view of composition with a main loop regulator and an auxiliary loop regulator. The binary observer has a property of the chattering alleviation in the constant boundary layer; however, the steady state estimation accuracy and robustness are dependent upon with width of the constant boundary. In order to improve the steady state performance of the binary observer, the binary observer is formed by adding extra integral dynamic to the switching hyperplane equation.

This paper presents performance analyses of three types of the cylindrical-type ER(electro-rheo-logical) valves, which have different electrode length and width but same electrode area. Following the composition of silicone oil-based ER fluid, the field-dependent yield stresses are obtained from experimental investigation on the Bingham property of the ER fluid. The ER valve which is dependent on the applied electric field is devised and its theoretical model is derived. On the basis of the pressure-drop analysis, three types of the ER valves are designed and manufactured. After experimentally evaluation field-dependent pressure drops, PI controller is formulated to achieve tracking control on desired pressure drop. The controller is then experimentally implemented and tracking control performance is presented in order to demonstrate superior controllability of the ER valve. In addition, the response characteristic of the ER valve with respect to the excitation frequency of the electric fiedls is provided to show the feasibility of practical application.

The magnetic levitation system has great advantages, such as little friction, no lubrication, no noise and so on. But the magnetic levitation system need a stabilizing controller because it is a unstable, system in natural and it need a sensor for displacement measurement to control the system. In this paper, we proposed a sensorless method to measure the gap between the magnetic pole and the levitated object with application the inductance characteristic which vary according to gap. We made a driving circuit which supply simultaneously the control input PWM(Pulse Width Modulation) signal and the carrier PWM signal to estimate the gap. Because the inductance is a function of gap, and the current of the carrier signal is a function of the inductance, we could estimate the gap from the measurement of the current of the carrier signal. Finally, we investigated the validity of the proposed method through the experimental results.

This paper presents a discrete-time approximate linear model of the continuous-time pulse-width-modulated linear system, and then, by employing the resultant model, a simple LQ suboptimal control scheme is proposed for a DC-DC step-down buck converter. The proposed scheme effectively regulates the output voltage to the desired level, which is also verified by the numerical simulation.

This paper proposes a simple but robust self-tuning fuzzy logic controller for the speed regulation of a dual star induction machine based on indirect field oriented control. For feed the two star of this machine, two voltage source inverters based on sinus-triangular pulse-width modulation techniques are introduced. The simulation results show the robustness and good performance of the proposed controller.

The Resolver usually used in industry is the absolute angle analog sensor that must be in order to driving BLDC (brushless DC) motor, and it needs RDC(Resolver-to-Digital converter) for changing the output signal to digital to be applied to the SVPWM(Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation) algorithm. Commonly used S/W RDC needs trigonometric function. What it takes a lot of calculation time of processor is gotten at weak point. In this paper, S/W RDC is realized except trigonometric functions as a result of feedback resolver outputs after filtering using FIR filter. thus, processing time is reduced. So, One-chip DSP Controller operating the Vector Control, RDC, and SVPWM can be designed.
