An effective Carrier-Based PWM scheme that enables the instantaneous quality of each branch point voltage of a diode clamped 4-level inverter to be reduced at a low modulation index is described. This scheme presents a computed zero sequence voltage of PWM by the feedback of both DC-link voltages and load currents. The proposed PWM scheme enables to increase the controllable region of DC-link voltage and makes it possible to operate with small DC-link capacitors. The validity of the proposed PWM scheme is verified by simulation results.

본 논문에서는 전압형 3상 ZSI(Z-source Inverter)의 입력전압과 커패시터 충전전압을 검출하고 ZSI의 기본 정의를 이용해 지령전압에 대한 변조지수(Modulation Index)를 결정하는 방법과 출력전압 제어가 가능한 변형된 SVM(공간벡터 변조방식)으로 구성된 알고리즘을 소개한다. 제안된 알고리즘은 ZSI의 이득과 변조지수의 정의를 이용한 간단한 방법으로 변조지수를 변화시켜 출력전압을 일정하게 유지하는 방법이다. PSIM을 통하여 타당성을 입증하였다.

Multilevel converters have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. The efficiency parameters of a multilevel converter such as the switching losses and total harmonic distortion (THD) mainly depend on the modulation strategy used to control the converter. Among all of the modulation techniques, the selective harmonic elimination (SHE) method is particularly suitable for high-power applications due to its low switching frequency and high quality output voltage. This paper proposes a new expression for the SHE problem in five-level converters. Based on this new expression, a simple analytical method is introduced to determine the feasible modulation index intervals and to calculate the exact value of the switching angles. For each selected harmonic, this method presents three-level or five-level waveforms according to the value of the modulation index. Furthermore, a flowchart is proposed for the real-time implementation of this analytical method, which can be performed by a simple processor and without the need of any lookup table. The performance of the proposed algorithm is evaluated with several simulation and experimental results for a single phase five-level diode-clamped inverter.

In satellite communication, modulated beacon signal is spreaded by gold sequence and the modulated beacon is transmitted via linear phase modulation. Due to the difference in characteristics of the satellite and the receiver on the ground, frequency offset (FO) occurs. An existing modulated beacon receiver is a method of synchronizing the frequency of a modulated beacon signal using FFT(Fast Fourier Transform), which not only increases the delay and complexity in terms of system implementation but also has a separate circuit for compensating the phase difference due to FO and phase offset from FFT points. In order to overcome this problem, this paper proposes and analyzes a scheme for compensating and demodulating the coarse FO and phase offset at one time using the 2-phase shaped characteristics of the modulated beacon signal. Also, through the simulation, the modulation index suitable for the proposed method is analyzed and the appropriate cumulative number is also analyzed.

This paper proposes a robust multiple audio watermarking algorithm using improved QIM(quantization index modulation) with adaptive stepsize for different signal power and SVM(support vector machine) decoding model. The proposed algorithm embeds watermarks into both frequency magnitude response and frequency phase response using QIM. This multiple embedding method can achieve a complementary robustness. The SVM decoding model can improve detection rate when it is not sure whether the extracted data are the watermarks or not. To evaluate robustness, 11 attacks are employed. Consequently, the proposed algorithm outperforms previous multiple watermarking algorithm, which is identical to the proposed one but without SVM decoding model, in PSNR and BER. It is noticeable that the proposed algorithm achieves improvements of maximum PSNR 7dB and BER 10%.

Theoretical average current and rms current equations are solved using the analytical method in the 3phase voltage-fed inverter. Experimental switch current equations are established by simulation and compared with theoretical equations. As a result of analysis, average and rms currents of switch devices are represented by a function as power factor and modulation index. Especially, equations of this paper are represented as a function of a single factor(K) equal to the product of the power factor and modulation index. Method that can find current levels of switch devices for inverter design and conduction loss of inverter in a simple and accurate manner is presented. Influences of modulation method on switch current are also studied.

Square-wave current source inverter drives suffer from torque pulsation and speed variation at low speed. Attempts to minimize these problems, CSI PWM strategies have been reported. It is shown that these PWM strategies are based on unnecessarily restrictive modulation laws. In this paper, trapezoidal PWM strategy for CSI is investigated theoratically by double fourier series and we proposed Harmonic Speed ripple Factor(HSF) that is independent of motor parameters and load conditions. Speed ripple are considered in T-PWM and square wave inverter by HSF. We obtain modulation index(M) and carrier ratio (CR) for minimum speed ripple.

The effect of eccentricity on dispersion and nonlinear properties of a photonic crystal fiber having elliptical air holes is investigated using a fully vectorial effective index method. It is found that the effective refractive index increases with increase of eccentricity. The dependence of dispersion and nonlinear properties of the PCF on the eccentricity of the air hole is investigated. It is revealed that eccentricity of the air hole affects the zero dispersion wavelength. Further, the nonlinear properties such as mode field area, nonlinear coefficient and self phase modulation of the Photonic crystal fibers are analyzed. The mode field area increases and the nonlinear coefficient decreases with increase in eccentricity. The variation of the self phase modulation with elliptical air hole is also discussed.

In this work, we consider imperfectness of feedback channels in the adaptive transmission scheme which was previously studied with an assumption of error-free feedback channels. New method of mapping the modulation index into the feedback channel symbols and quantifying feedback error over fading channels are proposed. The presented method and results are expected to offer valuable tools for the system designer to efficiently implement adaptive diversity schemes to compensate for the performance degradation due to feedback error.

In this paper, a novel six-level inverter is proposed. Voltage regulation is applied at DC-link and flying capacitors through the implementation of phase-shifted carrier-based modulation with zero-sequence voltage injection. The performance of the proposed structure has been verified under various modulation indices, where low voltage ripple is achieved at each capacitor and total harmonic distortions (THD) of line voltage at unity modulation index is about 15.95%.
