In this paper, a novel high gain bidirectional modular dc-dc converter (BMC) with unipolar and bipolar structures for dc network interconnections is proposed. When compared with traditional dc grid-connecting converters, the proposed converter can achieve a high voltage gain with a simple modular transformerless structure. A sub-modular structure for the BMC is proposed to eliminate the unbalanced current stress between the different power units (levels) in the BMC. This can realize current sharing and standardized production and assembling. In addition, phase-interval operation is introduced to the sub-modules to realize low voltage and current ripple in both sides of the converter. Furthermore, two types of bipolar topologies of the sub-modular BMC were proposed to extend its application in bipolar dc network connections. In addition, the control system was optimized for grid-connection applications by providing various control strategies. Finally, simulations of a 3-level unipolar sub-modular BMC and a 4-level bipolar sub-modular BMC were conducted, and a 1-kW experimental 3-level unipolar prototype was developed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed converter.

This paper proposes a Current-Fed Push Pull type DC-DC converter using LCCC Resonant circuit and Zero Voltage Switching function to reduce turn on and off loss at the switching instants. This paper have the advantage which is able to operating safely in load short, because of DC reactor is connected with resonance reactor in order to supply a fixed current with low ripple from DC Power supply. The capacitor ($C_1$, $C_2$) connected in switch are common using as resonance capacitor and ZVS capacitor. The analysis of the proposed Current-Fed Push Pull type DC-DC converter is generally described by using normalized parameter, and we have evaluated characteristic values which is needed to design a circuit. We confirm a rightfulness theoretical analysis by comparing a theoretical values and experimental values obtained from experiment using MOSFET as switching devices.

일반적으로 스텝 업(Step-up) 컨버터는 Boost 컨버터, Buck-Boost 컨버터, Flyback 컨버터, Push-Pull 컨버터 등 다양하며 이 중에서 Boost 컨버터는 매우 간단한 형태로 가장 널리 사용되는 스텝 업(Step-up) 컨버터이다. 하지만, Boost 컨버터는 DCM 동작, 큰 리플 문제 및 RHPZ 문제 등을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 새로운 Topology를 적용한 컨버터들이 제시되었는데 그 중 KY 컨버터는 Boost 컨버터의 DCM 동작, 큰 리플 문제 및 RHPZ 문제 등을 개선하였다. 그러나 기존의 KY 컨버터는 Boost 컨버터보다 전압 이득이 상대적으로 낮은 단점이 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 기존의 KY 컨버터의 장점이 있으면서 낮은 전압 이득 문제를 해결한 새로운 Topology의 KY 컨버터를 제안하였다.

유도 전동기를 전압 제어하기 위한 최적 PWM 스위칭 방법을 제시하려한다. 전압 인버터의 공간 벡터 변조 방식은 DC-버스 이용을 향상시키고 정류 손실을 감소시키기 때문에 디지털 구현의 경우 특히 선호하는 PWM 방법이다. 유도 전동기 전압 제어를 위한 최적 PWM 스위칭 방법은 제시한 최적 PWM 알고리즘을 사용하여 두 개의 활성 전압 벡터(active voltage vector)와 하나의 영 전압 벡터(zero voltage vector)로 구성하였다. 선택된 스위칭 순차 열은 변조 지수(modulation index)와 운송파(carrier wave) 주기의 함수로 정의 된다. 순차 열은 인버터 스위칭 손실과 전류 리플 값을 기준으로 사용하여 선택된다. 실험 결과 중 저 전력용으로 사용할 경우 스위칭 주파수를 증가시킴에 따라 고조파 왜곡이 감소하고 동특성이 좋아짐을 확인할 수 있었다.

전기추진선박의 추진시스템에 주로 사용되는 3상 정류기의 입력전류는 다양한 저차 고조파를 포함하고 있다. 이러한 고조파 저감을 위해서 대전력이 필요한 대형 선박에 사용되는 전력변환장치는 12펄스 출력의 정류기가 현재 사용되고 있지만 여전히 $12{\pm}1$차의 고조파가 발생되는 문제점이 있다. 또한, 속도 및 토크 제어기법으로 널리 사용되고 있는 직접토크제어기법의 경우에는 토크 리플이 심하고 전동기의 입력전류는 인버터의 스위칭에 의해 고조파를 크게 포함하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 직접토크제어기법을 이용하는 전기추진시스템의 12펄스 정류기에 보조 전원을 공급하여 고조파를 저감하고 토크 제어성능을 향상시켰으며 실선시스템 환경에서 시뮬레이션을 통해 그 유효성을 입증하였다.

In this paper, a Gm-C LPF utilizing common-mode feedforward (CMFF) CMOS inverter type operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) has been designed and verified by circuit simulations. The CMFF CMOS inverter OTA was optimized for wide input linearity and low current consumption using a standard 0.18 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process; gm of 100 ${\mu}S$ and current of 100 ${\mu}A$ at supplied voltage of 1.3 V. Using this optimized CMFF CMOS inverter type OTA, an elliptic 5th order Gm-C LPF for GPS specifications was designed. Gain and frequency tuning of the LPF was done by changing the internal supply voltages. The designed Gm-C LPF gave pass-band ripple of 1.6 dB, stop-band attenuation of 60.8 dB, current consumption of 0.60 mA at supply voltage of 1.2 V. The gain and frequency characteristics of designed Gm-C LPF was unchanged even though the input common-mode voltage is varied.

To effectively cope with a complexity of kinematic metrology due to workspace enlargement of the planar stage, the linear induction motor is suggested as its new driving source. Especially, the linear induction motor under uniform plate type of secondary doesn't inherently have a periodical force ripple which is generally shown in the brushless DC motor. But, it presents a poor transient characteristic at zero or low speed zone owing to time delay of flux settling, resulting in slow response. To improve the servo property of linear induction motor and apply successfully it to the precision stage, this paper discusses a modified vector control methodology. The controller has a novel input form, fixed d-axis current, q-axis current and forward-fed DC current, to control thrust force and normal force of the linear induction motor independently. Influence of the newly introduced input and the feasibility of controller are validated experimentally.

This paper presents a two-paralleled four quadrant DC chopper type PWM power conversion circuit in order to generate a gradient magnetic field in the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system. This circuit has 8-IGBTs at their inputs/outputs to realize further high-power density, high speed current tracking control, and to get a low switching ripple amplitude in a controlled current in the Gradient Coils (GCs). Moreover, the power conversion circuit has to realize quick rise/fall response characteristics in proportion to various target currents in GCs. It is proposed in this paper that a unique control scheme can achieve the above objective DSP-based control system realize a high control facility and accuracy. It is proved that the new control system will greatly enlarge the diagnostic target and improve the image quality of MRI.

In this paper proposed method of maximum power point tracking using boost converter for a connected single phase inverter with photovoltaic system. The maximum power point tracking control is based on generated circuit control MOSFET switch of boost converter and single phase inverter uses predicted current control to control four IGBT's switch in full bridge. The predicted current control provide current with sinusoidal wave shape and inphase with voltage. The generation control circuit allows each photovoltaic module to operate independently at peak capacity, simply by detecting of the output power of the system. Furthermore, the generation control circuit attenuates low-frequency ripple voltage, which is caused by the full-bridge inverter, across the photovoltaic modules. Consequently, the output power of system is increased due to the increase in average power generated by the photovoltaic modules. The effectiveness of the proposed inverter system is confirmed experimentally and by means of simulation.

This paper proposed a high-power density bidirectional converter for hybrid electric vehicle high-voltage DC-DC converter(HDC). The conventional HDC has two disadvantages. First, large inductance is required to satisfy the ripple current of inductor by low switching frequency (<20 kHz). Second, large core size is required to prevent the saturation of inductor by high current. Compared with the conventional HDC, the proposed HDC can reduce inductance with SiC-FET for high frequency driving. High-power density of I/O capacitors can be achieved through two-phase interleaved method. The high-power density of inductors can be achieved because the offset current of magnetizing inductance is theoretically terminated by using the differential mode coupled inductor instead of using two single inductors. The validity of the proposed converter is proved through the 50 kW prototype.
