Due to advancements in power electronics and inverter topologies, the current controlled multilevel voltage-source pulse width modulated (PWM) inverter is usually preferred for accurate control, quick response and high dynamic performance. A multilevel topology approach is found to be best suited for overcoming many problems arising from the use of high power converters. This paper presents a comprehensive review and comparative study of several current control (CC) techniques for multilevel inverters with a special emphasis on various approaches of the hysteresis current controller. Since the hysteresis CC technique poses a problem of variable switching frequency, a ramp-comparator controller and a predictive controller to attain constant switching frequency are described along with its quantitative comparison. Furthermore, various methods have been reviewed to achieve hysteresis current control PWM with constant switching frequency operation. This paper complies various guidelines to choose a particular method suitable for application at a given power level, switching frequency and dynamic response.

For ac applications a detailed understanding of the ac power losses associated with different conductor configurations is of crucial importance. YBCO thin films were divided into parallel filaments with widths of 1, 2, and 4 mm to reduce hysteresis losses. The measured hysteresis losses show a linear relationship between the strip width and hysteresis loss as anticipated. The influence of different inter-filament separations on the hysteresis loss is investigated.

MR/TbCo 박막 계면의 자기교환 결합의 특성을 시뮬레이션 하기 위해서 박막내에 존재 하는 자기 에너지를 최소화 하여 자화의 방향을 구하였다. 수치해석 방법으로는 Newton법과 Gauss-Seidel 방법이 이용되었다. TbCo의 이방성 상수에 비례적으로 자기 이력곡선의 폭이 변하고, TbCo 천이영역의 두께가 얇을수록 자기이력곡선이 벌어지지 않았다. 특히 TbCo 천이영역의 두께가 $400\;\AA$ 일때 단일 곡선(보자력 10 Oe 이하)을 보였다. 또한 계면 교환 결합상수가 작을수록 천이영역의 두께가 얇을 때와 비슷한 곡선을 보였고, 완전히 결합된 상태의 1/100 정도 일때, 단일 곡선을 보였다. 제작한 박막의 자기이력곡선과 비교하여 계면교환 결합상수를 추정할 수 있었다.

Effects of microstructure of two Mg-ferrite specimens with the same starting composition and relative density but with different grain size on B-H hysteresis loop, natural resonance frequency, and ferromagnetic resonance line width are reported. Such properties as B-H hysteresis loop, saturation magnetization, natural resonance frequency, and ferromagnetic resonance line width were influenced by the microstructure development during sintering. Large grain size specimen showed high saturation magnetization, low coercive force, low natural resonance frequency, and low ferromagnetic resonance line width compared with the specimen of small grain size. The main reason for the changes in properties can be explained by the variation in anisotropic characteristics due to Fe+2 content generated during sintering process.

More and All-Electric Aircraft (AEA) carry many loads with varied functions. In particular, there may be large pulsed loads with short duty ratio, which can affect the normal operation of other loads. In this paper, a bi-directional converter with inductive storage is used as a voltage bus conditioner (VBC) to mitigate voltage transients on the bus. In addition, the constant frequency hysteresis control technique for a VBC is presented. A simple and fast prediction of the hysteresis band-width is implemented by the phase-lock loop control, keeping constant switching frequency. This technique offers the excellent dynamic response in load or parameter variation. The control performance is illustrated by simulated results with the SABER package, The proposed hysteresis control results in the shortest and the smallest excursions.

Hysteresis current regulator has been used widely because of its simple principle and structure. However, when the current band width is too narrow or the applied voltage is relatively too high, the switching frequency may increase abruptly and it generates a large amount of heat. Thus, this study will suggest a better and simple method to reduce the switching frequency. For single phase current control, the proposed hysteresis current control is executed by adding 0 mode state and comparing the slope of the current reference. This simple method decreases the generated switching frequency and significantly reduces the generated heat. This proposed method was proved with simulations and experiments comparing with the classical hysteresis current control method.

To investigate the influence of strip width and inter-strip separation on the ac loss, arrays of parallel strips with different widths and separations were prepared. Studies on the hysteresis-loss characteristics of multifilamentary YBCO films were performed. The local magnetic field due to magnetization currents is measured by a scanning Hall probe microscope. Based on these results a conceptual design for a low loss YBCO coated conductor is suggested.

In this paper, instantaneous reactive power compensation algorithm is proposed and analyzed. The static Var generator developed in this paper is the current source PWM converter using hysteresis comparator method, which compensates the reactive power by detecting each instantaneous phase voltage and line current, independently. Some aspects on the static Var compensator-such as inductance, capacitance, hysteresis width, and switching frequency, etc.-are discussed. The dynamic performances are examined through digital simulation and experimental test.

A Current Error Space Phasor (CESP) based hysteresis controller with online computation of the boundary for two-level inverter fed Induction Motor (IM) drives is presented in this paper. The stator voltages estimated along the ${\alpha}$-and ${\beta}$-axes and the orthogonal current error components of the motor are used in the online computation of the hysteresis boundary. All of the inherent benefits of space phasor based hysteresis controllers such as its quick dynamic response and nearby voltage vector switching are present in the proposed scheme with the added benefit of suppressing switching frequency variations. The similarity in the frequency spectrum of the phase voltage obtained at the output of the inverter using the proposed scheme and Bus Clamping Pulse Width Modulation (BCPWM) based drive is justified with the help of extensive MATLAB SIMULINK simulations. The controller is experimentally verified with a three phase, 2.2 kW IM drive for steady state and transient conditions and the obtained results match the simulation results.
