In this paper, a comparative study on the performance of two-phase and three-phase randomized pulse position PWM scheme for mitigation of audible switching acoustic noise in motor drives Is done. In the randomized pulse position PWM, each of two-phase or three-phase PWM pulses is located randomly in each switching interval. Simulation and experimental efforts were executed to investigate the spread effects of power spectra of inverter output voltage, waveforms of ripple current and audible switching acoustic noise.

In this paper, a new two-phase space vector RPWM(Random PWM) is proposed. In the proposed RPWM, each of two-phase PWM pulses is located randomly in each switching interval. Based on the space vector modulation technique, the duty ratio of the pulses is calculated. Along with the randomization of the PWM pulses, we can obtain the effects of spread spectra of inverter output voltage, d.c link current and audible switching acoustic noise as in the case of randomly changed switching frequency. To verify the validity of the proposed two-phase RPWM scheme, the experiment based on the C167 micro-controller was executed. The performance of the proposed scheme was compared with traditional PWM schemes experimentally.

In induction machine drive without a speed sensor, the estimation of the motor flux and speed often becomes deteriorated at low speeds with low back EMF. Our analysis shows that, in addition to the state resistance variation, the estimated value of field orientation angle is often corrupted by accumulative errors from the integration of voltage variables at motor terminals that have low signal/noise ratio at low frequencies. A repetitive loop path of integration in the feedback can amplify this type of error, thus speeding up the degradation process. The control system runs into information starvation due to the loss of correct field orientation. The machine's spiral vectors are controlled only in a reduced dimension in this situation. A novel control scheme is developed to improve the control performance of motor's current, torque and speed at low frequencies. The scheme gains a full-dimensional vector control and is less sensitive to the combined effect of the error sources at the low frequencies. Experimental tests demonstrate promising performances are achievable even below 0.5 Hz.

This case study refers to resonance with vertical pumps. Vibration problem occurring after the inverter was installed for speed control. Its problem was appeared any revolution under rated speed. Vibration data was acquired during normal operation and transient state. We examined FRF on its resonance in field and also analyzed a result by finite element method. There was carried out the retrofit in field which was based on these results for solving problem.

We have investigated the precharge type sense amplifier, it is suitable fur voltage sensing in a NOR type single transistor ferroelectric field effect transistor (1T FeFET) memory read operation. The proposed precharge type sense amplifier senses the bit line voltage of 1T FeFET memory. Therefore, the reference celt is not necessary compared to current sensing in 1T FeFET memory, The high noise margin is wider than the low noise margin in the first inverter because requires tile output of precharge type sense amplifier high sensitivity to transition of input signal. The precharge type sense amplifier has very simple structure and can sense the bit line signal of the 1T FeFET memory cell at low voltage.

In this paper, Uninterruptible Power Supply(UPS) Inverter system using Carrier Frequency Modulated PWM (CFM-PWM) is proposed to reduced harmonics and electromagnetic noise. Power conversion of UPS system is executed by the ON-OFF operation of semiconductor switching devices. However, this switching operation causes the surge and EMI which deteriorate the reliability of the UPS system. This Problems improved by Random PWM switching method. The simulation results of the proposed system was compared with the system using conventional method using Matlab/Simulink. The results show that the output voltage and current harmonics of the proposed UPS system significantly decreased and spread into wide band area by the proposed Carrier Frequency Modulated PWM(CFM-PWM) method based on the Space Vector Modulation.

The velocity of train which is measured from pulse generator attached to TM is used for displaying or control signal of inverter and so on. Measured signals increase and decrease step-by-step by pulse counting or monotonously by F/V conversion. But noises and signal distortions by measuring error like alias make it difficult to provide correct velocity infomation and estimate the acceleration. In this paper, we investigated the performance of Smoothing method for suppressing the noises in velocity signals. And the difference between Smoothed signal and origin velocity signals is inspected and the comparison with low pass filtering show applicable of Smoothing method for noise rejection and the estimation of signal. Finally, acceleration curves estimated from Smoothing method are compared with real accelerator signal attached to train.

Recently, according to the rapid development of mobile system, the development of relative mobile components has been required, and especially, with the miniaturization of mobile component, the complex with nearby components has been progressed. In this paper, multi-output VC-TCXO (Voltage Controlled-Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) for WCDMA integrates the additional CMOS inverter, so it can be the normal clipped sinewave output and additional CMOS output, and also it can be satisfied the VC-TCXO's requirements for WCDMA system. And the important characteristics of reference oscillator, like phase noise and frequency short term stability, are satisfied with WCDMA(UMTS) system's requirement In this paper, however, 25MHz is used for reference frequency, similarly and practically, we think that it can be used from 10MHz to 40MHz.

This paper presents a high-efficient and cost effective three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC power conversion system with a single two-switch type active Auxiliary Resonant DC Link (ARDCL) snubber circuit, which can minimize the total power dissipation. The active ARDCL snubber circuit is proposed in this paper and its unique features are described. Its operation principle in steady-state is discussed for the three phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter, which is composed of PWM rectifier as power factor correction (PFC) converter, sinewave PWM inverter. In the presented power converter system not only three-phase AC/DC PWM rectifier but also three-phase DC/AC inverter can achieve the stable ZVS commutation for all the power semiconductor devices. It is proved that the proposed three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter system is more effective and acceptable than the previous from the cost viewpoint and high efficient consideration. In addition, the proposed two-switch type active auxiliary ARDCL snubber circuit can reduce the peak value of the resonant inductor injection current in order to maximize total system actual efficiency by using the improved DSP based control scheme. Moreover the proposed active auxiliary two-switch ARDCL snubber circuit has the merit so that there is no need to use any sensing devices to detect the voltage and current in the ARDCL sunbber circuit for realizing soft-switching operation. This three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter system developed for UPS can achieve the 1.8% higher efficiency and 20dB lower conduction noise than those of the conventional three-phase hard-switching PWM AC/DC-DC/AC converter system. It is proved that actual efficiency of the proposed three-phase AC/DC-DC/AC converter system operating under a condition of soft switching is 88.7% under 10kw output power.
