최근 에너지 절약과 친환경 조명에 대한 관심이 고조되면서 기존 광원보다 효율이 좋은 LED 조명에 대한 연구가 증가되고 있다. LED 조명은 타 조명에 비해 초절전, 친환경, 장수명으로 21세기에 적합한 조명이라고 할 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 기존의 LED 등기구 전원구동회로에 마이크로 컨트롤러 기반 볼트 레귤레이터를 이용한 전류 제어시스템을 장착하여 다양한 LED 등기구에 적합한 전류가변제어시스템을 개발하는 것이다. 이를 위해 가변저항과 보상저항을 이용하여 LED 순방향 전압값에 대한 영향이 최소화되도록 회로를 구성하여 안정적인 전원공급과 전류조정이 가능하도록 하는 전류가변제어시스템을 제안한다. 본 연구에서 제시한 마이크로 컨트롤러 기반 볼트 레귤레이터를 이용한 정전류 회로 및 이를 이용한 에너지 절감방법은 발광소자에 불필요한 발열을 최소화할 수 있고, 저항값을 세밀하게 조정할 수 있어 다양한 대용량 LED 등기구에 적용 가능하다. 본 연구는 궁극적으로 안정적인 전류 공급으로 LED 등기구의 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper proposes an estimation algorithm for the electrical parameters of synchronous reluctance motors (SynRMs) by using a synchronous PI current regulator at standstill. In reality, the electrical parameters are only measured or estimated in limited conditions without fully considering the effects of the switching devices, connecting wires, and magnetic saturation. As a result, the acquired electrical parameters are different from the real parameters of the motor drive system. In this paper, the effects of switching devices, connecting wires, and the magnetic saturation are considered by simultaneously using the short pulse and closed loop equations of resistance and synchronous inductances. Therefore, the proposed algorithm can be easily and safely implemented with a reduced measuring time. In addition, it does not need any external or additional measurement equipment, information on the motor's dimensions, and material characteristics as in the case of FEM. Several experimental results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

The output voltage of Synchronous Generator is regulated constantly by field current control in excitation system. A synchronous generator is equipped with an automatic voltage regulator(AVR), which is responsible for keeping the constant output voltage under normal operating conditions about various levels. High frequency PWM converter (Current Mode Control Buck converter) type excitation system for synchronous generator is able to sustain output voltage level properly when the fault condition happened. This paper deals with the design and evaluation of the excitation system controller for a synchronous generator to improve the steady state and transient stability. The simulation and experimental results show that the proposed excitation system is improve the respons time by the AVR(automatic voltage regulator) of 50kW synchronous generator that is applied the current mode control excitation system.

According as level of industry develops day after day, electricity load system of industry requires high level control, effectiveness and high efficiency. Among supply and control unit of suitable power supply in these load characteristic, inverter systems of constant current regulate is used widely control of lighting and electric heating system. But, problems that power factor deterioration and fast response of control, efficiency, harmonics and etc are still remain. Therefore, in this paper proposed an inverter systems with constant current regulation and power factor correction (PFC) circuit for lighting and beaconing of aerodromes. The effectiveness of the proposed system confirmed through experimental results of 10[kW] power supply system.

The peak-power-tracking solar array regulator sensing the inductor current is proposed. Since it uses the inductor current as the solar array output power information, the PPT control scheme can be greatly simplified. The charge controlled two-loop scheme is presented to improve the dynamics due to the inductor current sensing. The comparison between the single-voltage loop controlled system and the two-loop controlled system employing the charge control is presented. This paper also contains the simulation results of that comparison.

A new implementation strategy for the flux weakening control of a Surface Mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (SPMSM) is proposed. It is implemented based on the output of the synchronous PI current regulator-reference voltage to PWM inverter. The onset of flux weakening and the level of the d-axis current are adjusted by the outer voltage regulation loop to prevent the saturation of the current regulator. The characteristics of this flux weakening scheme include no dependency on the machine parameters, the guarantee of current regulation on any operating condition, and fast transition into and out of the flux weakening mode. Experimental results at various operating conditions including 4-quadrant operation are presented to verify the feasibility of the proposed control scheme.

Recently, as the power capability of satellites increase, we need to develop a new SAR(Solar Array Regulator) with much higher power capacity whenever we design a power system of a new satelite. In this case, modular design method could be a good solution for this kind of problem. But when we use a modular method in the design of the parallelled converter, it is very important to share current equally between each module connected in paralled. In this paper, we study how to design the optimum current control-loop and voltage control-loop when we apply average current-mode control method to the parallel SAR. With the design results, we make a protype of the 3-module paralleling SAR and verify its performances.

This paper presents a neutral point deviation and ripple compensation control method for application to 3-level NPC converters. The neutral point deviation and its harmonic components are analyzed with a focus on the average current flowing through the neutral point of the dc-link. This paper also proposes a control scheme to compensate for the neutral point deviation and dominant harmonic components under generalized unbalanced grid operating conditions. The positive and negative sequence components of the pole voltages and ac input currents are employed to accurately explain the behavior of 3-level NPC converters. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the validity of the proposed method.

The impact of gamma radiation on a commercial off the shelf microcontroller board has been investigated. Three different tests have been performed to ascertain the radiation tolerance of the device from a nuclear decommissioning deployment perspective. The first test analyses the effect of radiation on the output voltage of the on-board voltage regulator during irradiation. The second test evaluated the effect of gamma radiation on the voltage characteristics of analogue and digital inputs and outputs. The final test analyses the functionality of the microcontroller when using an external, shielded voltage regulator instead of the on-board voltage regulator. The results suggest that a series of latch-ups occurs in the microcontroller during irradiation, causing increased current drain which can damage the voltage regulator if it does not have short-circuit protection. The analogue to digital conversion functionality appears to be more sensitive to gamma radiation than digital and analogue output functionality. Using an external, shielded voltage regulator can prove beneficial when used for certain applications. The collected data suggests that detaching the voltage regulator can extend the lifespan of the platform up to approximately 350 Gy.
