To prevent the short circuit of upper and lower arms of bridge type PWM converters as like a voltage source inverter and PWM AC/DC converter, the dead time is inserted in between two switching signals. As a result, unexpected errors are occurred. In this paper, a new dead time minimization method is proposed. According to the proposed method, very short time which is equal to the applied dead time or more short than it, is adopted at the time of current polarity is changing. Moreover, it can be operated with the polarity information of reference current in case of current control. With the experimental results. the varidity of proposed method is verified.

In this paper considers the design of the effective controllers for the plant with an integrator and a long dead time. The structure of the new DTC(Dead Time Compensator) that has an additive filter is proposed. Our DTC shows the improved performance in set-point response and disturbance rejection. Especially the bad effect of the long dead time in the disturbance rejection is fairly reduced by using the additive filter. illustrative examples are provided to show the availability of the proposed controller.

기존의 DC-DC Boost 변환기에 사용되는 일반적인 non-overlapping gate driver는 dead-time이 고정되어 있기 때문에 body-diode conduction loss 또는 charge-sharing loss가 발생하는 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 loss에 의한 효율 감소를 줄이기 위해 dead-time 적응제어 기능을 갖는 PWM DC-DC Boost 변환기를 설계하였다. 또한, 부하전류가 작은 경우 효율을 증가시키기 위해 power switching 회로를 사용하였다. 그 결과 넓은 부하 전류 범위에서 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있다. 제안된 DC-DC Boost 변환기는 CMOS 0.18um공정으로 설계하였다. 2.5V의 입력전압을 받아서 3.3V의 출력전압을 얻는다. 스위칭 주파수는 500kHz이며, 최대효율은 97.8%이다.

In this paper, optimal control of the fuel cell and design of a high-efficiency power converter is implemented to build a high-priced fuel cell system with minimum capacity. Conventional power converter devices use a non-isolated boost converter for high efficiency while the battery is charged, and reduce its conduction loss by using MOSFETs instead of diodes. However, the efficiency of the boost converter decreases, since overshoot occurs because there is a moment when the body diode of the MOSFET is conducted during the dead time and huge loss occurs when the dead time for the maximum-power-flowing state is used in the low-power-flowing state. The method proposed in this paper is to adjust the dead time of boost and rectifier switches by predicting the power flow to meet the maximum efficiency in every load condition. After analyzing parasite components, the stability and efficiency of the high-efficiency boost converter is improved by predictive compensation of the delay component of each part, and it is proven by simulation and experience. The variation in switching delay times of each switch of the full-bridge converter is compensated by falling time compensation, a control method of PWM, and it is also proven by simulation and experience.

This paper deals with the application of a Generalized Predictive Control (CPC) to a Pressurized Water Reactor (P.W.R) Nuclear Power Plant. Generalized Predictive Control is a sort of Explicit Self-Tuning Control. Current self-tuning algorithms lack robustness to prior choices of either dead-time (input time delay of a plant) or model order. GPC is shown by simulation studies to be superior to accepted self-tuning techniques such as minimum variance and pole-placement from the viewpoint that it is robust to prior choices of dead-time or model order. In this paper a GPC controller is designed to control the P.W.R. nuclear power rlant with varying dead-time and through the designing procedure the designer is free from the constraint of knowing the exact dead-time. The controller is constructed based on the 2nd order linear model approximated in the vicinity of operating point. To ensure that this low-order model describes the complex real dynamics well enough for control purposes, model parameters are updated on-line with a Recursive Least Squares algorithm. Simulation results are successful and show the possibilities of the GPC control application to actual plants with varying or unknown dead-time.

The performance of direct torque controlled (DTC) interior permanent magnet (IPM) machines is poor at low speeds due to a few reasons, namely limited accuracy of stator voltage acquisition and the presence of offset and drift components in the acquired signals. Due to factors such as forward voltage drop across switching devices in the three phase inverter and dead-time of the devices, the voltage across the machine terminals differ from the reference voltage vector used to estimate stator flux and electromagnetic torque. This can lead to instability of the IPM drive during low speed operation. Compensation schemes for forward voltage drops and dead-time are proposed and implemented in real-time control, resulting in improved performance of the space vector modulated DTC IPM drive, especially at low speeds. No additional hardware is required for these compensators.

Recently PWM inverters are widely utilized for many industrial applications e.g. high performance motor drive and PWM techniques are newly developed for an accurate output voltage. Among them space voltage vector PWM(SVPWM) inverter has high voltage ratio and low harmonics compared to the conventional sinusoidal PWM inverter. However output voltage of PWM inverter is distorted and has error duet o the conducting voltage drop of switching devices and the dead time that is inevitable to prevent the shoot-through phenomenon. This paper investigates 3-phase SVPWM inverter which has a new compensation method against dead time and voltage drop. Proposed algorithm calculates gate pulse periods which directly compensates the dead time and nonlinear voltage drop without modification of reference voltages. Direct compensation of gate pulse periods produces exact output voltage and does not need additional circuits. The propose algorithm is verified through the simulation and experiments.

A new dead-time compensation method using a disturbance observer is proposed. The dead-time causes the voltage distortion and it can be considered as the disturbance voltage. In this paper, the disturbance voltage is estimated by minimal order observer in the d-q frame and the estimated disturbance voltage is summed with voltage command by a feed-forward. The experiments are carried out for the DSP-based BLDC motor drive system and the results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.
