In this paper, discrete current control of voltage source inverters is proposed. As a current control scheme, the constant switching frequency predictive current control is adopted and implemented with DSP microprocessor system. In particular, the proposed method is for the compensation of the control lagging due to calculation delays in the microprocessor controller. In controlling the current, the inverter output voltage saturation problem is inevitable and usually affects the current control performance. So, the saturation boundary condition of the inverter output voltage and its effects on the current controal performance of the proposed current control scheme are investigated with experiment. Finally, the proposed scheme is applied to the active power filter system and some results are described for validation.

In recent year, inverters and cycloconverters system are widely used for fed induction motor drives. Motor drives by cycloconverter is possible to frequency have been directly changed without AC/DC converter, so that circuits is simpler than inverter. A aims of this paper is the control strategy and hardware design for vector control system by cycloconverter fed induction motor drives. In this paper, Algorithm of vector control is derivlid from the model of controlled current source-fed induction motor. Vector control system is implemented using these algorithm and a pulse width controled cycloconverter using a SCR. Cycloconverter of vector control system is controlled by pulse width of SCR's trigger signal. pulse width is controlled primary command current $li_1l$ and frequency TEX>$\omega_1$..

In this paper, a novel nonlinear control method of the CVCF(constant voltage and constant frequency) output voltage for the three-phase PWM inverter with LC output filters is proposed. A nonlinear modeling including the output LC filters is linearized by feedback linearization theory, the controllers of which can be designed based on a linear control theory. It is applied to the DC/AC power conversion of the PWM inverter for stand-alone wind power generation system. It has been verified by the experimental results that the proposed control scheme gives high dynamic responses at load variation as well as a zero steady-state error.

This paper describes the development of a powertrain for a 20 kW experimental electric vehicle using a surface-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor (SPMSM) and its application to a test vehicle. Two 10 kW SPMSMs are used in the powertrain, and two-level inverters are developed by using IGBTs to derive these motors. To control the SPMSM, a control board based on a TMS320F28335 DSP module, which has fast arithmetic function and floating point operator, is used. We develop a 100 V/40 A battery pack, which includes $32{\times}4$ LiFePO4 battery cells using commercial BMS. A commercial on-board charger with 220 V (AC) input and 100 V (DC) and 18 A output is used to charge the battery pack. The performance of the developed vehicle, such as acceleration availability, maximum speed, and maximum power, is estimated based on vehicle dynamics and verified through experiments.

Most of the three phase inverters for adjustable speed drive of AC machines are equipped with two or three current sensors for measurement of three phase current. One method to reduce the number of current sensors is that single current sensor measures the DC link current, then three phase current is reconstructed using the measured value and the switching status. To improve the measurement accuracy, switching state should be maintained for more than minimum switching time. Many papers have been published, which focused on the readjustment of pulse width and compensation of voltage distortion. Those methods are suitable for space vector modulation. But there are some difficulties in applying these methods to carrier-based PWM which is widely used in industry. In this paper, new current measurement method and voltage compensation method are proposed which are suitable for carrier-based PWM, then, the validity of proposed method is confirmed through experiment.
