VSC-HVDC system is vulnerable to a DC fault because the fault current can be injected from AC system to DC system during the fault. Therefore, DC circuit breaker is required to isolate faults in VSC-HVDC system. The inverse current injection method of circuit breaker has been considered as DC circuit breaker. However, the topology has drawback that the breaking time is longer than hybrid circuit breaker using semiconductor devices. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes an improved topology of circuit breaker based on inverse current injection method. In addition, the proposed topology will be compared with the existing topology. And we will verify its effects by using the simulation results.

본 논문은 3상 PWM 컨버터의 커패시터의 용량을 온라인으로 추정하는 새로운 기법을 제안한다. 무부하 상태의 PWM 컨버터에 저주파수의 입력전류를 주입하면 직류링크단에 이에 대응되는 리플전압이 발생된다. 직류링크단의 리플전압과 전류를 검출하여 커패시터의 용량을 계산한다. 제안된 방법에 의해 계산된 커패시터의 용량의 추정오차는 2% 이내이다.

기존 6스위치 3상 인버터(SSTPI)의 한 상을 스위치 대신 커패시터로 대체한 4스위치 3상 인버터(FSTPI)에서 양 커패시터 전압의 불평형에 의한 출력전압의 오차를 보상하는 것은 FSTPI의 성능을 결정하는 중요한 요소이다. 본 논문에서는 DC 오프셋 전류 주입에 의하여 FSTPI의 커패시터 전압 불평형을 보상하는 새로운 방법과 FSTPI에 적용할 수 있는 간략화된 SVPWM 방법을 제안한다. 제안된 방법은 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션을 통해 타당성을 검증하였다.

In AlGaAs/GaAs HBT the temperature dependence of DC parameters was investigated over the temperature range between 95K and 580K. The temperature dependence of DC parameters depends on the relative contribution of each of the current components suc as emitter-injection-current, base-injection-current, bulk recombination current, interface recombination curretn, thermal generation ecurrent and avalanche current due to impact ionization within the collector space charge layer in a specific temperature. In this paper we investigated the temperature effects on DC parameters such as V$_{BE,ON}$ current gain, input and output characteristics, V$_{CE, OFF}$, R$_{E}$, R$_{C}$ and analyzed the origins, and extracted the qualitativ econditions for a stable HBTs against the temperature variation. Finally, in order to keep HBTs stable with respect to the variation of temperature, the valance-band-energy-discontinuity at emitter-base heterojunction should be large enough to enhance the effect of carrier suppression at a relatively high temperature. In addition the recombination centers, especially around collector junction, should be removed and the area of emitter and collector junction should be identical as well.

For the digital control of systems such as grid-connected inverters, measuring inverter output currents accurately is essential. However, current measurement offsets are inevitably generated by current measurement paths and cause DC current components in real inverter output currents. Real inverter output currents with DC components cause the DC-link capacitor voltage to oscillate at the frequency of a utility voltage. For these reasons, current measurement offsets deteriorate the overall system performance. A compensation strategy to eliminate the effect of current measurement offsets in grid-connected inverters is proposed in this study. The validity of the proposed compensation strategy is verified through simulations and experiments. Results show that the proposed compensation strategy improves the performance of grid-connected inverters.

The static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) of cascaded H-bridge configuration accompanying multiple separate DC sides is inherently subject to the problem of uneven DC voltages. These DC voltages in one leg can be controlled by adjusting the AC-side output voltage of each cell inverter, which is proportional to the active power. However, when the phase current is extremely small, large AC-side voltage is required to generate the active power to balance the cell voltages. In this study, an alternative zero-sequence current injection method is proposed, which facilitates effective cell balancing controllers at no load, and has no effect on the power grid because the injected zero sequence current only flows within the STATCOM delta circuit. The performance of the proposed method is verified through simulation and experiments.

Three-phase current is reconstructed from the dc-link current in an AC machine drive with a single current sensor. Switching pattern modification methods, in which the magnitude of the effective voltage vector is secured over its minimum, are investigated to accurately reconstruct the three-phase current. However, the existing methods that modify the switching pattern cause voltage and current distortions that degrade sensorless performance. This paper proposes a variable-magnitude voltage signal injection method based on a high frequency voltage signal injection. The proposed method generates a voltage reference vector that ensures the minimum magnitude of the effective voltage vector by varying the magnitude of the injection signal. This method can realize high quality current reconstruction without switching pattern modification. The proposed method is verified by experiments in a 600W Interior permanent magnet synchronous machine (IPMSM) drive system.

A new single-stage flyback power converter with PFC for electrolytic capacitor-less LED driver is proposed in this study. This method minimizes the peak-to-average ratio of the LED driving pulsating current by adding the LED driving current near the LED current valley area, as well as the third harmonic component injection into the input current. The reduced peak current value of the LED drive current minimizes the thermal stress of the LED itself, thereby increasing the reliability of the LED, as well as achieving a long lifetime. Simulation and experimental results show the usefulness of the proposed topology.

Current mode control has been used for DC to DC converters for over twenty years. There are many different control schemes which use the inductor current signal in one way or another to control the DC to DC converter. In this paper, the state space averaging technique is applied for the analysis of flyback type current mode control circuit. We made real converter for the guarantee of stable output characteristic and proper design of feedback circuit. The validity of proposed method is verified from test result. The improvement of stability is confirmed by sinusoidal signal injection method with isolated transformer. It is known that phase margin is sufficient and gain crossover frequency fc is early 1/5 of switching frequency, fs, from the experimental result with frequency response analyzer.
