This paper studies the instability between homopolar generator and constant power load with negative impedance characteristics, provides the design method of homopolar generator system which overcomes the instability. In case of magnitude and phase of impedance of source and load mismatch, control instability of source can occur. For the safety of phase of load impedance, the gain of P, I controller with sufficient phase margin is applied through analysis on the simulation model of generator system, and the gain limit of load impedance is ensured by limitation of the gain margin of generator system. The stability of power system can be increased by considering and analyzing the impedance of source and load.

For satisfying a recommended value of the quality factor which is one of the important elements in a filter design, a new design method of smoothing filter using an internal parameter of a homopolar generator is proposed. The method increases the efficiency and minimizes the size of the smoothing filter by removing the damping resistor. By considering the resonant frequency as well as the quality factor, the new method can improve the stability of the system which has high boosting converters with negative resistance characteristics.

This paper describes the characteristics of Permanent Magnet Generator(PMG) and Homo-Polar Gnerator(HPG) applied in small aircraft engine. PMG has a advantage of miniaturization and fast bandwidth if it is using the DC/DC converter for power conversion which increases a volume and cost although. On the other hand, HPG has a advantage of simple voltage control accomplished by flux control of field coil. Recently, it is recommended the PMG without DC/DC converter module by reason of the wide range of input voltage of electronic loads and system efficiency.
