Power quality is a critical issue in distribution systems, where a dynamic voltage restorer (DVR) is commonly used to mitigate the voltage disturbances for loads. This paper deals with a nonlinear control for the three-phase four-wire (3P-4W) DVR under a grid voltage unbalance and nonlinear loads in the distribution system, where a novel control scheme based on the feedback linearization technique is proposed. Through feedback linearization, a nonlinear model of a DVR with a PWM voltage-source inverter (VSI) and LC filters is linearized. Then, the controller design of the linearized model is performed by applying the linear control theory, where the load voltages are kept constant by controlling the d-q-0 axis components of the DVR output voltages. To keep the load voltage unchanged, an in-phase compensation strategy is employed, where the load voltages are recovered to be the same as the previous voltage without a change in the magnitude. With this strategy, the performance of the DVR becomes faster and more stable even under unbalanced source voltages and nonlinear loads. The validity of the proposed control strategy has been verified by simulation and experimental results.

In many applications of inverter system, it is desirable to obtain an AC output voltage with variable frequency and amplitude. For the variable-speed AC motor drive, the system is one major area of application for the variable-frequency inverter. V ariable~voltage variable-frequency sinusoidal output in three-phase inverter is possible by employing the techniques developed. In this paper, the technique of particular harmonics elimination(PHE) in three-phase PWM inverter-output waveforms is introduced. The required switching patterns are determind on personal computer. Results are stored in look-up table in EPROM and used to control the switching of the inverter devices. The experimental results indicate that the loss in an induction motor is minimized to a degree by using this algorithm. The proposed PWM pattern is effective not only to the induction motor but also to the other electromagnetic machine such as Voltage Regulator, UPS.

This paper proposes the effective compensation method of the rotor time constant of induction motor. An indirect vector control method is highly dependent on the motor parameters. To solve the problem of performance degradation due to parameter variation in an indirect vector control of induction motor, we compensate the rotor time constant by current error feedback. The proposed method is a simple on-line rotor time constant compensation method using the information from terminal voltages and currents. As the current error, difference between current command and estimated current, approaches to zero, the value of rotor time constant in an indirect vector controller follows the real value of induction motor. This scheme is valid transient region as well as steady state region regardless of low or high speed. This method is verified by computer simulation. For this, we constructed the simulation model of induction motor, indirect vector controller and current regulated PWM (CRPWM) voltage source inverter (VSI) using SIMULINK in MATLAB.

A hysteresis control is widely used to control output current of inverter. A hysteresis bandwidth is affected by system parameters such as source voltage, device on/off time, load inductance and resistance. The frequency limiter is used to protect switching devices overload. In the conventional hysteresis controller, a lock-out circuit with D-latch and timer is used to device protection circuit. But switching delay time and harmonic components are appeared in output current. In this paper the performance of lock-out circuit is tested, and new circuit for switching device fault protection is proposed ad it's performance is simulated.

The windup phenomenon appears and results in the performance degradation when the PI controller output is saturated. A new anti-windup PI controller is proposed to improve the control performance of the variable-speed motor drives and it is experimentally applied to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated(PWM) voltage source inverter (VSI). The integral state is separately controlled corresponding to whether the PI controller output is saturated or not. The experimental results show that the speed response has the much improved performances such as small overshoot and fast settling time over the conventional anti-windup technique. Although the operating speed command is changed, the similar control performance can be obtained by using the PI gains selected in the linear region.

The windup phenomenon appears and degrades control performance when a controller with integrating action is used and the plant input is limited. An anti-windup integral -proportional(IP) controller is proposed for the variable-speed motor drives and it is experimentally applied to the speed control of a vector-controlled induction motor driven by a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage source inverter(VSI). Although the operating conditions like motor load and speed command is changed under the limited plant input it is experimentally verified that the speed response has much improved performance such as no overshoot and fast settling time and the maximum plant input is also effectively utilized.

Voltage controlled current regulated PWM(pulse width modulation) of VSI (voltage source inverter) is proposed. Adopting one degree of freedom, the voltage, the current controller shows much more improvement than conventional ones not using this method. The voltage controller or this proposal needs load's parameters, torque value, rotational speed. This voltage controller is located at converter part which links AC source and DC bus. With this proposed method, duty ratio of the inverter's switching is nearly unity for all speed and torque range. Hence, this method gets many advantages such as reducing current ripple, thermal loss, and noises and improving control performances. Theoretical approach to this voltage-current controller is performed, and the results are presented.
