The recent growth in the use of impactive and nonlinear loads, electronic devices sensitive to power quality has caused many power quality problems. Recently, in power system, not only the reliability of the power supply but also the DVR(Dynamic Voltage Restorer) are being studied more and more. The DVR is a series compensator which can instantaneously compensate a voltage variation in supply side, and is a more effective than a existing UPS(Uninterruptible Power Supply) which can be only used in limited range of loads such as single load. Hence, in this paper, a study of inverter side L-C filter output Voltage for DVR is discussed.

Currently, many power systems, especially motors, developed with a large output of power. It is possible to produce electricity in the engine room with enough space and to operate all equipment within the rating load capacity.

In this paper, we suggest decoupling control method based on general PI control law to control variable speed refrigeration system of the ship effectively. In the variable speed refrigeration system, the capacity and the superheat are controlled by inverters and electronic expansion valves respectively for saving energy and improving cost performance. Thus, we propose decoupling model to eliminate the interfering loop between capacity and superheat at first. Next, we design PI controller to control capacity and superheat independently and simultaneously. Finally the control performance was investigated through some experiments. The experimental results show that the PI control design can obtain good control performance under the adjustable control reference and thermal load variation.

In this paper, we proposed that the problem of controlling induction motor with magnetic saturation is studied from an input-output feedback linearization with adaptive algorithm. The $\pi$-model of induction motor is considered. An adaptive input-output feedback linearizing controller is considered under the assumption of known motor parameters and unknown load torque. Simulation results are provided for illustration.

Currently, power conversion system which converts AC to DC Power is applied in domestic urban railway. The diode rectifier is used in most of them. However the diode rectifier can not control the output voltage and can not regenerate power as well. On the other hand, PWM (pulse width modulation) converter using IGBT (isolated gate bipolar transistor) can control output voltage, allowing it to reduce the output voltage drop. Moreover the Bi-directional conduction regenerates power which does not require additional device for power regeneration control. This paper compared the simulation results for the DC power supply system on both the diode rectifier and the PWM converter. Under the same load condition, simulation circuit for each power supply system was constructed with the PSIM (performance simulation and modeling tool) software. The load condition was set according to the resistance value of the currently operating impedance of light rail line, and the line impedance was set according to the distance of each substations. The train was set using a passive resistor. PI (proportional integral) controller was applied to regulate the output voltage. PSIM simulation was conducted to verify that the PWM Converter was more efficient than the diode rectifier in DC Traction power supply system.

In order to achieve the high quality output voltage of single-phase voltage source inverters, in this paper an Adaptive Complementary Sliding Mode Control (ACSMC) is proposed. Firstly, the dynamics model of the single-phase inverter with lumped uncertainty including parameter variations and external disturbances is derived. Then, the conventional Sliding Mode Control (SMC) and Complementary Sliding Mode Control (CSMC) are introduced separately. However, when system parameters vary or external disturbance occurs, the controlling performance such as tracking error, response speed et al. always could not satisfy the requirements based on the SMC and CSMC methods. Consequently, an ACSMC is developed. The ACSMC is composed of a CSMC term, a compensating control term and a filter parameters estimator. The compensating control term is applied to compensate for the system uncertainties, the filter parameters estimator is used for on-line LC parameter estimation by the proposed adaptive law. The adaptive law is derived using the Lyapunov theorem to guarantee the closed-loop stability. In order to decrease the control system cost, an inductor current estimator is developed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed controller is validated through Matlab/Simulink and experiments on a prototype single-phase inverter test bed with a TMS320LF28335 DSP. The simulation and experimental results show that compared to the conventional SMC and CSMC, the proposed ACSMC control strategy achieves more excellent performance such as fast transient response, small steady-state error, and low total harmonic distortion no matter under load step change, nonlinear load with inductor parameter variation or external disturbance.

Since energy efficiency has become a significant concern for network infrastructure, next-generation network devices are expected to have embedded advanced power management capabilities. However, how to effectively exploit the green capabilities is still a big challenge, especially given the high heterogeneity of devices and their internal architectures. In this paper, we introduce a hierarchical power management architecture (HPMA) which represents physical components whose power can be monitored and controlled at various levels of a device as entities. We use energy aware state (EAS) as the power management setting mode of each device entity. The power policy controller is capable of getting information on how many EASes of the entity are manageable inside a device, and setting a certain EAS configuration for the entity. We propose the optimal local control policy which aims to minimize the router power consumption while meeting the performance constraints. A first-order Markov chain is used to model the statistical features of the network traffic load. The dynamic EAS configuration problem is formulated as a Markov decision process and solved using a dynamic programming algorithm. In addition, we demonstrate a reference implementation of the HPMA and EAS concept in a NetFPGA frequency scaled router which has the ability of toggling among five operating frequency options and/or turning off unused Ethernet ports.

OBC for battery charging of electric vehicles mainly consist of two stages including PFC circuit and isolated DC-DC converter circuit. In general, a non-isolated boost converter is used as the PFC circuit, and a resonant converter capable of ZVS (zero voltage switching) is used as the isolated DC-DC converter. In this paper, we propose an OBC composed of isolated current-fed type PFC circuit and buck DC-DC converter. The proposed OBC is easy to configure the circuit and controller, and can cope with a wide output range. In order to verify the validity of the proposed circuit, a prototype 3.3 ㎾ class prototype was fabricated. As a result, the maximum efficiency and the maximum power factor of 99.2% were confirmed under the operational stability and rated load conditions at the output voltage of 150V ~ 400V.
