This paper describes design and implementation results of a fuzzy logic speed controller of EV(Electric vehicle)'s induction motor for the purpose of realizing comfortable driving. The fuzzy controller is suitable for speed control of EV since that without detailed knowledge about the induction motor, it is easier to design a well-performing speed control system with good stability. PWM wave for driving the induction motor is generated by space vector modulation method and all the control algorithms are realized digitally. The results of experiment show excellence of the proposed system and that the proposed system is appropriate to control the speed of induction motor for commercial EVs.

This paper presents the control method for the hybrid actuator comprising a DC motor and an MR brake. Generally, a DC motor as an active actuator has a small power to weight ratio and goes unstable with higher force control gain due to its saturation limit. In order to cope with this instability and make the transparency higher, this paper proposes a hybrid actuator which consists of a DC motor and an MR brake as a passive actuator and its force control method based on network theory. A DC motor actively produces the output corresponding to the signs of the input currents. On the other hand, an MR brake passively resists against the external load independent of the sign changes of the input currents. This characteristics is widely known as 'passive' This paper suggests a force control method based on passivity concept in network theory for the hybrid actuator and verified its performance and stability through the experiments.

In this paper filtering techniques to reduce the adverse effects of motor leads on high-frequency PWM inverter fed AC motor drives are presented. The filter was designed to keep the motor terminal from the cable surge impedance to reduce overvoltage reflections ringing and the dv/dt, di/dt, at the motor terminals. Specially the output filter is used to limit the rate of the inverter output voltage and reduce common mode noise to the motor, The performance of the output filter is evaluated through simulations and experiment on PWM inverter-fed AC motor drive. An experimental PWM drive system reduction of conducted EMI was implemented on an available TMS320C31 microprocessor control board Finally, experimental result shows inverter output filter reduces more common mode voltage than low pass filter also reduce overoltage and ringing at the motor terminal.

In high power motor drive system, the hard-switching topology produces severs switching losses and EMI noises. Also the inverter switching frequency is thus limited because of excessive loss and thermal handling problem. The primary purpose of the proposed works on the induction motor drive system is to develop an advanced soft-switching inverter topology that is most suitable for high power induction motor drive applications. To make the optimal selection EMI comparison of the switching losses presented. To verify the proposed design procedure, detailed simulation analysis with theoretical and experimental approaches have been done using laboratory prototype.

In this paper, a high speed motor drive system using an indirect adaptive neural network controller is proposed. In the variable high speed motor drives, the speed response can be deteriorated by long settling time and high overshoot. To obtain a good dynamical performance, an adaptive feedforward controller consisted of Neural Network Controller(NNC) and Neural Network Emulator(NNE) is applied. The NNE is used to identify the parameters and characteristics of high speed motor. To train the controller, the weights are dynamically adjusted using the back propagation algorithm. Computer simulation and implementation of the proposed system is described.

To control screen door installed in the subway platform, geared BLDC motors have been being used. However, because of the geared mechanisms, the control profile of the screen door in slow speed is very poor. Moreover, geared mechanism tends to leads system malfunctions and low efficiency. To overcome those problems, in this paper, the techniques of developing hi-efficiency direct drive gearless PMAC motor controller and application example to control the screen door of subway platforms are proposed. The developed system has advantages that; the energy efficiency has been increased by adopting gearless PMAC motor; the system break-down factor has been decreased due to the actuator mechanism has been simplified. In this paper, the screen door control system structure, PMAC motor drive circuit design, implementations of vector control algorithm, and test results are shown.

In this paper, A 200kW traction motor driver that covers most of the traction motor specification of commercial electric vehicles (EV) is developed. In order to achieve high efficiency and high power density, a next-generation power semiconductors (Silicon carbide, SiC) are applied instead of power semiconductor(IGBT), which is Si based. Through hardware analysis for optimal use of SiC, expected efficiency and heat dissipation characteristics are obtained. A vector control algorithm for an IPMSM (Interior permanent magnet synchronous motor), which is mostly used in EV(Electric vehicle) traction motor, is implemented using DSP (Digital signal processor). In this paper, a prototype traction motor driver based SiC for EV is designed and manufactured, and its performance is verified through experiments.
