Since the residential load is an AC load and the output of solar cell is a DC power, the photovoltaic system needs the DC/AC converter to utilize solar cell. In case of driving to interact with utility line, in order to operate at unity power factor, converter must provide the sinusoidal wave current and voltage with same phase of utility line. Since output of solar cell is greatly fluctuated by insolation, it is necessary that the operation of solar cell output in the range of the vicinity of maximum power point. In this paper, DC/AC converter is three phase PWM converter with smoothing reactor. And then, feedforward control used to obtain a superior characteristic for current control and digital PLL circuit used to detect the phase of utility line.

This study presents a design method for a single-loop voltage controller that is suitable for an arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). The voltage control algorithm of AWG should ensure high dynamic performance and should attain sufficient robustness to disturbances such as inverter nonlinearity, sensor noise, and load current. By analyzing the power circuit of AWG, control limitation and control target are presented to improve the dynamic performance of AWG. The proposed voltage control algorithm is composed of a single-loop output voltage control, an inverter current feedback term to improve transient response, and a load current feedforward term to prevent voltage distortion. The guideline for setting control gain is presented based on output filter parameters and digital time delay. The performance of the proposed algorithm is proven by experimental results through comparison with the conventional algorithm.

In this paper a robust speed controller for an induction motor is proposed. The speed controller consists or a fuzzy sliding adaptive controller(FSAC) and a sliding mode torque observer(SMTO). FSAC removes the problem or oscillations caused by discontinuous inputs of the sliding mode controller. The controller also provides robust characteristics against parameter and sampling time variations. Although, however, the performance of FSAC is better than PI controller and fuzzy controller in robustness, it generates the problem of slow response time. To alleviate this problem, a compensator, which performs feedforward control using torque signals produced by SMTO, is added. The simulation and hardware implementation results show that the proposed system is robust to the load disturbance, parameter variations, and measurement noises.

This paper describes a new digital control method of 3-phase PWM inverter with LC filter for uninterruptible power supply(UPS). The overall control system is based on the dead beat control, which has the minor loop of current control within the voltage control major loop. In this paper, the full-order disturbance observer is proposed to compensate the disturbances generated due to a sudden change of load currents. The proposed disturbance observer is composed of dead beat observer which estimates state values within a finite time, and cancels the disturbances by adding feedforward compensation loop in the control system. In addition, on order to remove a defect of oscillation generated in output of conventional dead beat controller, a modified dead beat algorithm is proposed in this paper.

This paper proposes a new high efficiency single-phase AC-DC boost converter for power factor correction. Lossless commutation circuit is interposed in the proposed converter for soft-switching. Due to this commutation circuit, the converter operates in 9 mode. In spite of changing input voltage and load, It attracts a constant DC output voltage because of the PWM control scheme using both the output voltage feedback and the input voltage feedforward. The converter is suitable for high power applications and operates in continuous conduction mode. In this paper, a 2.4[kW] converter is designed and simulated.

This paper deals with the issue of force synchronizing control for the clamping servomechanism of injection molding machines. Prior to the controller design, a virtual design model has been developed for the clamping mechanism with hydraulic systems. Then, a synchronizing controller is designed and combined with an adaptive feedforward control in order to accommodate the mismatches between the real plant and the linear model plant used. As a disturbance, the leakage due to the ring gap with relative motion in the cylinder has been introduced. From the robust force tracking simulations, it is shown that a significant reduction in the force synchronizing error is achieved through the use of a proposed control scheme.

This paper is the machine that is able to estimate a new built power convertor in a production line. Generally, this machine test can be achieved by connecting it to a dynamometer consisting of a three-phase machine joined by a rigid shaft to a DC load machine. But the proposal system is controlled to create some specific load characteristic needed for the test without any mechanical equipment. The suggested test stand consists only of a converter to be test and a simulator converter. Both devices are connected back-to-back on the AC-side via smoothing reactors. The simulator operates in real-time as an equivalent load circuit, so that the device under test will only notice the behaviour of a three-phase machine under consideration of the load. And then, to obtain a superior characteristic for dynamic reference used the feedforward control.

In this paper, a voltage controller for the seamless transition of a grid-connected inverter for ESS is proposed. The single-phase inverter is operated as a current controller when the grid is connected and as a voltage controller in the stand-alone mode when the grid is disconnected. Generally, in the case of grid recovery, the overcurrent may flow into the system because of the mismatch phase between the inverter output and grid voltages. The proposed controller resolves the overcurrent problem through phase delay problems with initial value feed-forward control of the integrator when the grid voltage is restored. The effects of the control method are simulated through PSIM, and the usefulness of the control method is verified through experiments.

A Fuzzy Logic Sliding Mode Control or FLSMC for the uninterruptible power system (UPS) is presented, which is tracking a sinusoidal ac voltage with specified frequency and amplitude. The FLSMC algorithm combines feedforward strategy with the Variable Structure Control (VSC) or Sliding Mode Control (SMC) and fuzzy logic control. The control function is derived to guarantee the existence of a sliding mode. FLSMC has an advantage that the stability of FLSMC can be proved easily in terms of VSC. Furthermore, the rules of the proposed FLSMC are independent of the number of system state variables because the input of the suggested controller is fuzzy quantity sliding surface value. Hence the rules of the proposed FLSMC can be reduced. The simulation results illustrate that the purposed approach gives a significant improvement on the tracking performances. It has the small overshoot in the transient and the smaller chattering in the steady state than the conventional VSC. Moreover, its can achieve the requirements of robustness and can supply a high-quality voltage power source in the presence of plant parameter variations, external load disturbances and nonlinear dynamic interactions.
