This study deals with the modulation index (MI) of a voltage source converter (VSC) HVDC system based on a modular multilevel converter (MMC). In the two-level converter, the purpose of the MI is to maximize the achievable AC voltage of the converter from a fixed DC voltage. Unlike that in a two-level converter, the MI in the MMC topology plays a role in making the converter a voltage source using a capacitor. The circulating current in the MMC distorts the AC voltage reference, and the distortion affects the MI. In addition, the AC network conditions, such as AC voltage variation and reactive power, affect the MI. Therefore, the MI should be optimized with consideration of internal and external factors. This study proposes a method to optimize the MI of an MMC HVDC system.

The scott transformer changes three-phase power to two single-phase power. However, this method causes unbalance and fluctuation of voltage by the change of electric railload. Recently, the AC railway system based on $3{\Phi}/1{\Phi}$ back-to-back (BTB) voltage source converter (VSC) has been proposed to solve these problems. Meanwhile, battery energy storage system (BESS) is used to compensate voltage instantaneously in power system. In this paper, BESS application to the AC railway system based on $3{\Phi}/1{\Phi}$ BTB VSC is suggested to compensate voltage instantaneously. The application effect is shown through simulation using MATLAB/SIMULINK.

본 논문에서는 인버터 모드 기능을 가지는 Quasi Z-소스 AC-AC 컨버터를 제안하였다. 제안된 시스템은 Quasi Z-소스 AC-AC 컨버터의 암단락 스위치 단에 PI제어가 된 양 방향 벅-부스트 컨버터를 연결하였다. 양방향 벅-부스트 컨버터에서 직류를 입력하는 모드를 인버터 모드라고 하고, 양방향 벅-부스트 컨버터에서 직류를 출력하는 모드는 컨버터 모드라고 한다. PSIM시뮬레이션에 의하여 인버터 모드 동작 시에는 직류 12V를 암단락 스위치단에 입력하여 AC_Load에 교류 전압를 출력하고, 컨버터 모드 동작 시에는 AC_Load에 교류 전압를 출력함과 동시에 암단락 스위치단에 연결된 DC_Load에 직류 전압을 일정하게 출력할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

The voltage-source inverters are normally equipped with an electrolytic capacitor in their DC link, however, the electrolytic capacitor has several disadvantages such as increasing size, limiting converter life and reliability. Therefore, several approaches for removing the DC link capacitor have been studied by the authors. This paper proposes a new voltage-source inverter without DC link components. To reduce waveform distortion of the AC source current, the current-controlled PWM-rectifier with di/dt feedback is introduced. The di/dt feedback gain and LC parameters are investigated by calculation for a 0.75kW induction motor driven by this inverter. The calculated AC source currents maintain nearly sinusoidal waveforms with a unity power factor.

This paper deals with an algorithm for controlling ac output voltage of Z-source inverter using Modified SVPWM (abbreviated as MSVPWM). Unlike the conventional space vector pulse width modulation, MSVPWM has one extra shoot-through zero time $T_{sh}$. During shoot-through zero time, both switches in a leg are conducted simultaneously in order to boost inverter output voltage to any desirable value regardless the line voltage. The algorithm to control linearly the capacitor voltage is suggested to improve the performance of Z-source inverter system. The performance of Z-source inverter using above algorithms is demonstrated in simulation results using PSIM. Index terms-Z-source inverter (ZSI), shoot-through time, three-phase carrier-based PWM, space vector PWM (SVPWM), modified space vector PWM (MSVPWM).

In this study, an improved LCCT(Inductor-Capacitor-Capacitor-Trans) Z-source inverter(Improved LCCT ZSI) with characteristics of Quasi Z-source inverter(QZSI) and LCCT Z-source inverter(LCCT ZSI) is proposed. The proposed inverter can also reduce the voltage stress and input current/capacitor voltage ripples compared with conventional LCCT ZSI and Quasi ZSI. A two winding trans in Z-impedance network of the conventional LCCT ZSI is replaced by a three winding trans in the proposed inverter. To verify the validity of the proposed inverter, a DSP controlled hardware was made and PSIM simulation was executed for each method. Comparing the current and voltage ripples of each method under the condition of input DC voltage 70[V] and output AC voltage 76[Vrms], the input current and capacitor voltage ripple factors of the proposed inverter were low as 11[%] and 1.4[%] respectively. And, for generation of the same output AC voltage of each method, voltage stress of the proposed inverter was low as 175[V] under the condition of duty ratio D=0.15. As mentioned above, we could know that the proposed inverter have the characteristics of low voltage stress, low ripple factor and low operation duty ratio compared with the conventional methods. Finally, the efficiency according to load change/duty ratio and the transient state characteristics were discussed.

조합 최적화 문제를 풀기 위한 개미 알고리즘(Ant Algorithm)은 실제 개미 집단의 행동을 모방하여 만들어진 것이다. Ant Colony System(ACS)은 여러 유형의 개미 알고리즘 중 비교적 최근에 소개된 것이다. ACS의 설계를 위해 순회 외판원 문제(Traveling Salesman Problem, TSP)를 사용하여 실험을 수행하였다. ACS를 다양한 조합 최적화 문제에 적용할 때 순회 외판원 문제에 사용된 ACS의 파라미터와 전략을 사용하고 있다. 본 논문에서는 조합 최적화 문제들 중 하나인 멀티캐스팅 라우팅 문제를 해결하기 위해 ACS를 이용하였다. 멀티캐스트 라우팅은 데이터를 하나의 송신자에서 여러 수신자들로 보내기 때문에 모든 노드를 포함하는 순회 외판원 문제와는 속성이 다르고, 송신자에서 각 수신자에 하나의 최단경로를 설정하는 문제와도 다른 속성을 지니고 있다. 본 논문에서는 멀티캐스트 라우팅에 ACS를 적용하기 위해 알고리즘의 동작을 수정하고, 수정한 ACS의 성능을 향상시키기 위한 최적의 전략과 파라미터를 설계한다.

In this paper, a novel concept for a static three-phase to three-phase power converter for an AC drive with a unity power factor and reduced harmonics on the utility line is presented. The power circuit consists of two back-to-back connected six-pulse bridges having only a $\mu$F ceramic capacitor in the DC link. By controlling the active kpower balance between two bridges, the DC link voltage can be maintained within 20V deviation from the nominal value with the small ceramic capacitors regardless of the load variation even in the unbalanced source condition.

In the single-phase switched reluctance motor (SRM) drive, the required DC source is generally supplied by the circuit consisting of bridge rectifier with diodes and many filter capacitances connected with AC source. Although the peak torque ripple of SRM is small because of large capacity of the capacitance, the charge and discharge time swhich the AC source acts on the capacitance are small and the peak current will pass on the side of source, so power factor and system efficiency decrease. Therefore a novel SRM drive system is presented in this paper, which includes drive circuit realizing reduction of torque ripple and improvement of power factor and switching topology. The proposed drive circuit consists of one switching part and diodes which can separate the output of AC/DC rectifier from the large capacitance and supply power to SRM alternately in order to realize reduction of torque ripple and improvement of power factor through the turn on and turn off of switching part. In addition, the validity of method is tested by simulation and experiment.
