This paper presents a method of improving the power factor and the waveform of A.C line currents and the out waveforms of AC to DC fully bridge converter systems which is achieved by connecting converters in series and parallel. The results of simulation show that the power factor and the source voltage and current waveforms are improved by the method of connecting converter in series, and the controlled input voltage and current waveform using a current limit controller.

In this paper, the control algorithm of DC source device for inverter starting is proposed and the control method for compensating unbalance system source on operating time in the voltage type PWM converter with driving and regenerative faculty is suggested. The maintaining way of balancing condition for converter of AC source is used the compensating unbalanced status by current control loop. Because it is possible that the unbalanced System control is used to leakage transformer not equaled reactance by each phase in rectifier system, the proposed H/W and control algorithm of rectifier system is contributed to minimize of device and rising efficiency.

Zero-voltage and zero-current switched single-stage approach with high power factor is presented to reduce the switching losses and to achieve sinusoidal, unity power factor input currents. This single-stage approach, which combines a boost converter used as PFC with a half-bridge converter used as do to do conversion into one power stage, has a simple structure and low cost. At the same time, since the switches of the proposed converter are designed to be turned on at zero-voltage and off at zero-current, the switching losses could be reduced considerably. Detailed analysis and experimental results are presented on the proposed converter, which is operated at constant switching frequency and in discontinuous conduction mode.

A current controlled VSI-PWM rectifier and inverter with capacitor dc link is regarded as one of the most promising structures for three-phase to three-phase to three-phase power conversion. This type of converter normally requires twelve switches for a rectifier and inverter composed of self turn-off switch such as a bi-polar transistor or IGBT with an anti-parallel diode. In this paper, a new three-phase to three-phase converter for ac motor drives is proposed. The proposed converter employs only eight switches and has the capability of delivering sinusoidal input currents with unity power factor and bidirectional power flow. This paper describes the feasibility and the operational limitations of the proposed structure. A mathematical model of the system is derived using generalized modulation theory and experimental results for steady state and dynamic behavior are presented to verify the developed model.

In this paper, control schemes are developed for a propulsion system(Converter/Inverter) in electrical train. A robust controller for PWM converter is proposed. The converter controller consists of a PI controller for DC output voltage and a current controller using error-space approach for maintaining the sinusoidal current waveform and unity power factor. This proposed method is based on characteristic ratio assignment(CRA) method which has the advantage to design the optimal gain to meet the referenced response and overshoot within the limit range. Inverter system is controlled by vector control and slip frequency control. At low speed region, vector control scheme is applied to control instantaneous torque and slip frequency control is performed under overmodulation region and one pulse mode. Because output voltage of converter contains harmonics ripple at twice input ac line frequency, control scheme is developed to reduce the pulsating torque current. The performance of propulsion system will be verified by simulation and prototype experimental results.

현대식 파워 컨버터 설계는 가격대비 효율적인 파워 솔루션을 위해 간단한 인터페이스를 가진 소형 IGBT 모듈을 필요로 한다. 전반적으로 낮은 높이, 양쪽에 별도로 부착된 AC 및 DC 터미널, 상부의 드라이버 액세스 등은 현대식 파워 모듈에 대한 최근의 시장 요구 사항이다. 이러한 요구에 부응하여 탄생한 것이 바로 SEMiX 모듈 플랫폼이다. 나아가, 이 논문에서는 모듈에 대한 새로운 드라이버 솔루션으로 기본 구동 기능과 보호 기능을 겸비한 간단한 애드온(add-On) 게이트 드라이버인 SKYPER를 선보인다. 이 논문에서, 다양한 모듈에 대한 SKYPER의 적합성은 SEMiX 예를 통해 성공적으로 검증되었다. SEMiX와 SKYPER 모두 IPM과 같이 작동했으나 스위치 특성 제어에 있어 더 많은 유연성을 제공하여 모듈식 인버터 솔루션을 위한 편리한 구축 블록임을 입증하였다.
