본 논문은 넓은 출력전압 범위와 High Power Density를 위한 절연형 HMF PFC(Isolated Harmonic Modulation PFC)를 제안한다. 제안된 PFC는 변압기 leakage inductance를 회로에 적용시켜 switching device의 voltage stress를 효과적으로 줄일 수 있는 voltage-fed형태의 ful-bridge구조를 기반으로 한다. 출력 측 CV(Constant Voltage) control을 통하여 출력 혹은 link 전압을 load 변동에 상관없이 일정 유지시켜준다. 또한 CC(Constant Current) control 방식을 사용하여 출력 측 battery 특성 조건이 변동되어도 일정하게 충전시켜 줄 수 있도록 한다. HMF 제어방식을 적용한 3.3kW Prototype을 통해 이를 입증한다.

This paper is part of research and development for stand-alone solar system without commercial power supply. It implements firmware of controller for operation of stand-alone solar system by applying IoT technology and also develops communication modules that allow multiple solar lamps to send and receive data through wireless network. The controller of the developed stand-alone solar system can effectively charge the power generated by the solar module, taking into account the battery's charge and discharge characteristics. It also has the advantage of attaching wireless communication modules to solar lamp posts to establish wireless communication networks without incurring communication costs. In addition, by establishing IoT gateway middleware platform for each installation site, it forms a foundation to operate multiple solar lamp posts into multiple clusters. And, it is expected that the data collected in each cluster will be used to enable configuration and control of operational information, thereby inducing convenience and efficiency of remote operation and management.

In this paper, we implement a non-time-varying transfer function of the duty ratio to improve the control characteristics in a control system that Input voltage and the output voltage is varied, DC / DC converters for bi-directional charging. When control is performed with using controller gain of conventional design, characteristics of the control is varied to fluctuations of the input voltage. The proposed method is the equivalently removing method for duty ratio in entire control block, by voltage controller gain is changed for inverse of the duty ratio. The proposed non-time-varying duty ratio transfer function is applied to DC / DC converter for bi-directional charging. In this paper, feasibility and superiority is verified through PSIM simulations and experiments.

센서 네트워크는 어떤 현상을 감지하기 위해서 관찰 지역 내에 뿌려진 센서 노드들로 구성된다. 각 센서 노드들의 수명은 전체 센서 네트워크의 수명에 큰 영향을 미친다. 하나의 센서 노드가 배터리수명을 다하여 죽게 되었을 때 이는 센서 네트워크의 분할을 가져 올 수도 있다. 각 센서 노드들의 수명은 각 노드들의 배터리 용량에 달려있다. 그러므로 네트워크에 있는 모든 센서 노드들이 공평하게 오래 사는 것이 전체 네트워크의 수명을 길게 하는 것이다. 이 논문에서 우리는 클러스터 기반의 에너지 효율적인 라우팅 프로토콜을 제안한다. 이 프로토콜은 여러 개의 유동성 싱크가 존재하는 센서 네트워크에서 효율적인 데이타 전송을 지원한다. 기존의 제안된 Directed Diffusion과 두 계층 데이타 전송 라우팅 프로토콜(TTDD)은 다수의 유동성 싱크와 다수의 소스가 존재하는 네트워크를 지원하기 위해서 많은 컨트롤 패킷들을 네트워크에 플러딩해야 한다. 이는 센서노드들의 많은 배터리 소모를 야기 시킨다. 이에 본 논문에서는 센서 노드가 자신의 위치를 알뿐만 아니라 변경하지 않는다는 사실을 이용하여 하나의 영구적인 그리드 구조를 만들어 네트워크에 플러딩 되는 컨트롤 패킷의 수를 줄인다. 이는 센서 노드들의 배터리 소모를 줄이고 전체 네트워크의 수명을 연장시킨다. 제안한 라우팅 프로토콜의 성능평가를 위해서 두 계층 데이타 전송 라우팅 프로토콜과 비교 분석하였다. 결과는 제안한 라우팅 프로토콜이 두 계층 데이타 전송 라우팅 프로토콜 비해서 더 에너지 효율적이라는 결과를 보여준다.

Current research and development efforts and other projects for energy storage systems (ESS) have recently been gaining attention. This is due to the many applications where ESS, particularly batteries, can be used. Among these are peak shaving, frequency regulation, and stabilization of renewable energy output. KEPCO has completed the construction and demonstration of a 4-MW battery energy storage system (BESS) located in Jeju City to verify its practicability in the power grid. KEPCO Research Institute has also been developing technology for the commercialization of BESS, and has been conducting a trial run of a 52-MW ESS (28MW + 24MW of Seo-Anseong and Shin-Yongin substations) constructed in 2014 for frequency regulation. This paper discusses the development of operation methods, as well as an operation user interface, for the safe operation and monitoring of BESS used for frequency regulation in a power system. Included are operation and simulation methods for various normal and transient frequency situations that can be experienced by a power system. Also discussed are the results obtained after applying these methods to the 4-MW BESS and the 52-MW ESS, both used for frequency regulation. The technology in this paper will be applied to 500MW ESS for frequency regulation of KEPCO by 2017. It is expected that this technology helps a safe and reliable operation and control of ESS for frequency regulation through its continuous upgrade.

The paper presents a new photovoltaic inverter for stand-alone induction motor application. The proposed system is composed of two stages. First stage is for the photovoltaic dc power feeding and second stage is dedicated to the motor-inverter subsystem and control technique. A direct torque control (DTC) with a novel switching strategy for motor torque ripple minimization is introduced. The novel DTC strategy is based on selecting a suitable voltage vector group for motor torque ripple minimization. A three-level voltage source inverter (VSI) is used instead of a two level inverter because the first has more available vectors and lower ripples in the output current and flux than the second, thus it has lower torque ripples. The photovoltaic array and battery bank are sized and the configuration is indicated based on sun-hour methodology. Simulation results show a comparison between three systems; two level VSI with conventional DTC strategy, three level VSI with conventional DTC, and the proposed system that has a novel DTC switching strategy applied to three level VSI. The results show that the proposed system has lower ripples in the current, flux and torque of the motor.

The pumping of electric power from photovoltaic (PV) farms is normally carried out using transformers, which require heavy mounting structures and are thus costly, less efficient, and bulky. Therefore, transformerless schemes are developed for the injection of power into the grid. Compared with the H4 inverter topology, the H6 topology is a better choice for pumping PV power into the grid because of the reduced common mode current. This paper presents how the perturb and observe (P&O) algorithm for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) can be implemented in the H6 inverter topology along with the improved sinusoidal current injected to the grid at unity power factor with the average current mode control technique. On the basis of the P&O MPPT algorithm, a power reference for the present insolation level is first calculated. Maintaining this power reference and referring to the AC sine wave of bus bars, a sinusoidal current at unity power factor is injected to the grid. The proportional integral (PI) controller and fuzzy logic controller (FLC) are designed and implemented. The FLC outperforms the PI controller in terms of conversion efficiency and injected power quality. A simulation in the MATLAB/SIMULINK environment is carried out. An experimental prototype is built to validate the proposed idea. The dynamic and steady-state performances of the FLC controller are found to be better than those of the PI controller. The results are presented in this paper.

This paper presents the modeling for islanded hybrid AC/DC microgrid and the verification of the proposed supervisory controller for energy management for this microgrid. The supervisory controller allows the microgrid system to operate in different power flows through the proposed control algorithm, it has several roles in the management of the energy flow between the different components of the microgrid for reliable operation. The proposed microgrid has both essential objectives such as the maximum use of renewable energies resources and the reduction of multiple conversion processes in an individual AC or DC microgrids. The microgrid system considered for this study has a solar photovoltaic (PV), a wind turbine (WT), a battery (BT), and a AC/DC loads. A small islanded hybrid AC/DC microgrid has been modeled and simulated using the MATLAB-Simulink. The simulation results show that the system can maintain stable operation under the proposed supervisory controller when the microgrid is switched from one operating mode of energy flow to another.

This paper presents a fully automated stand-alone irrigation system with GSM (Global System for Mobile Communication) module. Solar energy is utilized to power the system and it is aimed to conserve water by reducing water losses. The system is based on a DC water pump that draws energy from solar panels along with automated water flow control using a moisture sensor. It is also fitted with alert and protection system that consists of an ultrasonic sensor and GSM messages sender that transmits signals showing the levels of the water in the reservoir and the battery charge. The control system is designed to stop the water pump from pumping water either when the battery level drops to equal or less than 10% of its full charge, or when the water level becomes less than 10 cm high in the reservoir. The experimental results revealed that the system is appropriate to use in remote areas with water scarcity and away from the national grid.
