This paper presents a new method to compensate the non-linearity for matrix converter drives using PQR instantaneous Power theory. The non-linearity of matrix converter drives such as commutation delay, turn-on and turn-off time of switching device, and on-state switching device voltage drop is modelled by PQR power theory and compensated using a reference current control scheme. The proposed method does not need any additional hardware and off-line experimental measurements. The proposed compensation method is applied for high performance induction motor drives using a 3 kW matrix converter system without a speed sensor. Simulation and experimental results show the proposed method using PQR power theory Provides good compensating characteristic.

This paper proposes a control mode switching scheme between vector control and constant V/f control for induction machine (IM) drives for maximum torque utilization in a higher speed region. For the constant V/f scheme, a smooth transition method from the linear range of PWM up to the six-step mode is applied, by which the machine flux and torque can be kept constant in a high-speed range. Also, a careful consideration of the initial phase angle of the voltage in the transient state of the control mode change between the vector control and V/f schemes is described. The validity of the proposed strategy is verified by the experiment result for a 3-kW induction motor drives.

For electrical vehicles, switched reluctance drives present a promising alternative-compared to asynchronous and synchronous (permanent magnet) concepts. For these applications, a very wide field weakening range is a key issue. Other requirements include high torque output from a small machine and low current ripple at the DC-side without the use of bulky filters - when powered from fuel cells or advanced Lithium-Ion-batteries. A new converter and control strategy according to these requirements is presented and compared to existing designs. The comparison is done for a drive system with a continuous power rating of 30 to 40 kW.

In modern mechatronics new concepts of machines and processes are found by using the collected knowledge of all disciplines and by offering functional solutions. Most of the problems in the field of mechatronics demand technical innovations on the field of actuators, sensors and control methods. It demands also high dynamic drives with power electronics, able to cope with the new requirements. The paper presents some trends and industrial experiences with power components for high dynamic drives.

The purpose of this paper is to study a high-performance control scheme for neutral-point-clamping three-level (NPC-3L) inverter fed dual three-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives by considering some asymmetric factors such as the non-identical parameters in phase windings. To implement this, the system model is analyzed for dual three-phase PMSM drives with asymmetric factors based on the vector space decomposition (VSD) principle. Based on the equivalent circuits, PI controllers with feedforward compensation are used in the d-q subspace for regulating torque, where the cut-off frequency of the PI controllers are set at the twice the fundamental frequency for compensating both the additional DC component and the second order component caused by asymmetry. Meanwhile, proportional resonant (PR) controllers are proposed in the x-y subspace for suppressing the possible unbalanced currents in the phase windings. A dual three-phase space vector modulation (DT-SVM) is designed for the drive, and the balancing factor is designed based on the numerical fitting surface for balancing the DC link capacitor voltages. Experimental results are given to demonstrate the validity of the theoretical analysis and the proposed control scheme.

Starting from a new dynamic system description novel synchronous machine deterministic observers are proposed. Reduced and full order adaptive observer variations are presented. Based on the feedback linearization control law and the use of deterministic observer a novel control system is built. It meets the requirements of high performance tracking system. Adaptivity to stator and rotor resistance and the torque sensorless application is included. The comparison of the proposed novel control with conventional linear and nonlinear control systems is discussed. The given simulational study includes complete drive system integration.

This paper presents a optimal PWM patterns, applied to voltage source inverter fed traction motor drives. To derive a PWM patterns of low harmonic characteristic, the analysis and simulations of several PWM techniques are carried out. The acquired PWM patterns can reduce the harmonics and switch the GTOs with low frequency.

In this paper, vector control of induction motor drives using space current vector PWM is presented. The scheme gives advantages, besides robustness to inverter arm-shoot, sinusoidal input current and voltage for induction motors. In addition, space vector PWM for CSI produces faster transient response than conventional pattern PWM. Also, a modulation index control is proposed.

In this paper the new converter topology using single-Phase full bridge inverter for the switched reluctance motor drives is proposed. The proposed SRM drives are supplied by the AC pulse voltage source, while the conventional drives are supplied by the DC voltage source. Speed of the SRM is controlled by adjusting the frequency and the multitude of output current of inverter. The SRM using the proposed converter reduces the switching loss and the machine core loss, and has ability to pre-regulate the input voltage. The total number of power switches become fewer than another topology as a number of stator poles becomes more. Power circuit of an inverter is simpler and its volume is smaller because the module device involving several switches is used as an inverter.

Conventional P/PI speed controller of today's servo drives should be manually tuned the controller switching set-point by trial-and-errors, which may translate the drive system down-time and loss of productivity. The adjustable drive performance is heavily dependent on the quality of the expert knowledge and becomes inadequate in applications where the operating conditions change in a wide range, i.e., tracking command, acceleration/deceleration time, and load disturbances. In this paper, the demands on simple controls/setup are discussed for industry servo drives. Analyzing the frequency content of motor torque command, P/PI control mode switching is automatically performed with some prior knowledge of the mechanical dynamics. The dynamic performance of the proposed scheme assures a desired tracking response curve with minimal oscillation and settling time over the whole operating conditions. For comprehensive comparison of traditional P/PI control scheme, extensive test is carried out on actual servo system.
