In this study, the dynamic characteristic of a contact wire and pantograph suppling electrical power to high-speed trains are investigated from an electrical response point of view. To analysis power line disturbance by induced contact loss phenomenon for high speed operation, a hardware Simulator which considered contact loss between contact wire and the pantograph as well as contact wire deviation is developed. It is confirmed that a contact wire and pantograph model are necessary for studying the dynamic behavior of the pantograph system. One of the most important needs accompanied by increasing the speed of high-speed train is reduced that an arc phenomenon by loss of contact brings out EMI. In case of a high-speed train using electrical power, as comparison with diesel rolling stock, PLD(Power Line Disturbance) such as harmonic, transient voltage and current, EMI, dummy signal injection etc usually occurs. Throughout experiment, it is verified that an arc phenomenon is brought out for simulator operation and consequently conducted noise is flowed in electric circuit by power line disturbance.

This paper introduces a compression algorithm for power quality disturbance signal via the discrete wavelet transform, DWT. Algorithm to estimate a time delay from the power quality disturbance signal is proposed. Pseudo-stationary signal is constructed from the estimated time delay. A difference signal or nonstationary signal is obtained by removing a pseudo-stationary signal from a disturbance signal. DWT is applied to a difference signal. The threshold is applied to reduce a number of coefficients. Simulation results show the resonable compression ratio while keep low signal distortion.

A motor cylinder apparatus is used to transfer a load in industrial applications. The apparatus is composed of a motor and power transmission elements such as worm gear and screw. In this case, the nonlinear friction of the transmission elements has a bad influence on the position control performance. To overcome this problem, the position control system consists of a feedback controller to achieve nominal control performance and a disturbance observer to compensate nonlinear friction. Especially the filter of a disturbance observer is designed from viewpoint of robust stability. Finally, the simulation result shows that the proposed control system is effective for the disturbance elimination as well as the friction compensation.

A new on-line dead-time compensation method for a permanent magnet (PM) synchronous motor drive is proposed. Using a simple disturbance observer without any additional circuit and off-line experimental measurement, disturbance voltages in the synchronous reference dq frame caused by the dead time and non-ideal switching characteristics of power devices are estimated in an on-line manner and fed to voltage references in order to compensate the dead-time effects. The proposed method is applied to a PM synchronous motor drive system and implemented by using software of a digital signal processor (DSP) TMS320C31. Simulations and experiments are carried out for this system and the results well demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Power line signal can show disturbances due to various causes. Typical anomalies are temporary sag/swell of the amplitude, flat topped signal, and harmonic distortions. The disturbances need to be detected and treated properly for the quality of the power signal. In this study, the power disturbances are detected using the inflection points (IP). The inflection points are defined as points where local maxima/minima or the slope changes occur. The power line signal has a fixed IP pattern since it is basically sinusoidal, and it may have additional inflection points if there is any disturbance. The disturbance is detected by comparing the IP patterns between the normal signal and distorted signal. In addition, by defining a cost function, the time instant where the disturbance happens can be decided. The computer simulation shows that the proposed method is useful for the detection of various disturbances. The simple sag or swell signal only shows the amplitude changes at the detected inflection points. However, the flat top signal and harmonically distorted signal produce additional inflection points and large values in the cost function. These results can be exploited for the further processing of disturbance classification.

This study investigates output voltage variation of a voltage disturbance generator in case of sag and swell modes. The generator uses series transformers and silicon-controlled rectifier thyristors to provide voltage disturbance; consequently, voltage drop at the output terminal is inevitable. On the basis of the analysis, voltage drop increases as the power factor decreases in lagging. Voltage drop is 3.7 [%] at a power factor (lagging) of 0.8. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the analysis.

In this paper a systematic approach to automatic classificationi of power system harmonic disturbances is proposed where the proposed approach consists of the following three steps:(i) detecting and localizing each harmonic disturbance by applying discrete wavelet transform(DWT) (ii) extracting an efficient feature vector from each detected disturbance waveform by utilizing FFT and principal component analysis (PCA) along with Fisher's criterion and (iii) classifying the corresponding type of each harmonic disturbance by recognizing the pattern of each feature vector. To demonstrate the performance and applicability of the proposed classification procedure some simulation results obtained by analyzing 8-class power system harmonic disturbances being generated with Matlab power system blockset are also provided.

A new dead-time compensation method using a disturbance observer is proposed. The dead-time causes the voltage distortion and it can be considered as the disturbance voltage. In this paper, the disturbance voltage is estimated by minimal order observer in the d-q frame and the estimated disturbance voltage is summed with voltage command by a feed-forward. The experiments are carried out for the DSP-based BLDC motor drive system and the results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.

This paper presents a new recognition and classification method for power quality (PQ) disturbances on the basis of pattern linguistic values. This method solves the difficulty of recognizing disturbances rapidly and accurately by using fuzzy logic. This method uses classification disturbance patterns to define the linguistic values of fuzzy input variables and used the input variables of corresponding disturbance pattern to set membership functions. This method also sets the fuzzy rules by analyzing the distribution regularities of the input variable values. One characteristic of this method is that the linguistic values of fuzzy input variables and the setting of membership functions are not only related to the input variables but also to the character of classification disturbance and the classification results. Furthermore, the number of fuzzy rules is equal to the number of disturbance patterns. By using this method for disturbance classification, the membership function and design of fuzzy rules are directly related to the objective of classification, thus effectively reducing the complexity of the design process and yielding accurate classification results. The classification results of the simulation and measured data verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this method.
