The good features of a switched reluctance motor(SRM) are appreciated by the appliance manufactures. And it is spread into a commercial and industries market. The few disadvantage of the motor is higher torque ripple and noise. This paper proposes an instantaneous torque control scheme to control a speed precisely. It adapts phase-locked loop (PLL) technique to control speed precisely. In this control scheme, the phase detector signal of the PLL regulates the switching dwell angle flexibly and the loop filter's signal controls adaptively the instantaneous switching voltage. Experimental results show that drive performance is good with low torque ripple.

A class D digital audio amplifier with small size, low cost, and high quality is positively necessary in the multimedia era. Since the digital audio amplifier is based on the PWM signal processing, it is improper to analyze the principle of signal generation using linear system theories. In this paper, a class D digital audio amplifier based ADSM (Advanced Delta-Sigma Modulation) is considered. We first model the digital audio amplifier and then explain the operation principle using variable structure control algorithm. Moreover, the ripple signal generated by the hysteresis in the comparator has a significant effect on the system performance. Thus, we present a method to find the magnitude and the frequency of the ripple signal using describing function. Finally, simulations and experiments are provided to show the validity of the proposed methods.

Single phase converters suffer from ripple power pulsating at twice the line frequency. The ripple power is usually absorbed by a bulky capacitor bank and/or a dedicative LC resonant link, resulting in a low power density and a high cost. An alternative solution is using a dc link active power filter (APF) to direct the pulsating power into another energy-storage component. The main dc link filter capacitor can then be reduced substantially. Based on a mainstream dc APF topology, this paper proposed a new control strategy incorporating both dual-loop control and repetitive control. The circuit parameter design is also re-examined from a control point of view. The proposed APF scheme has better control performance, and is more suited for high power applications since it works in CCM and with a low switching frequency.

This paper presents a torque ripple reduction algorithm for the switched reluctance motor drives using the fuzzy logic and the sliding mode control. A turn-on angle controller based on the fuzzy logic determines the optimal turn-on angle. In addition, a sliding mode torque control (SMTC) methods reduces torque ripples instantaneously in the commutation region. The proposed algorithm does not require complex system models considering nonlinear magnetizing or demagnetizing periods of the phase current. According to the rotor speed and torque, the proposed controller changes the turn-on angle and reference torque instantaneously until the torque ripples are minimized. The simulation and experimental results verify the validity of minimizing the torque ripple performance.

Recently, AC servo motor has expanded its application areas the to the development of the power semi-conductor and control technology. But it has large torque ripple for its nonlinear characteristics and phase commutaion. In this paper, we proposed the switching angle overlapping method, and current control using tracking method in order to generate the constant torque of AC servo motor that has the trapezoidal back e.m.f. It is compared the these types of control method with the characteristics through simulation. We show that these methods lead the torque ripple to reduce and makes the position and speed characterlistics improved effectively. Also we prove that current control using tracking method is the best way to reduce torque ripple among the these types of control method.

This paper presents a DC link voltage control method to reduce the ripple current and the switching loss in the sinusoidal current drive system for the wide-speed range PMSM. The DC link voltage of the three phase inverter in the sinusoidal current drive system is designed by the back-EMF voltage at maximum speed of the PMSM. In general, the drive systems have used the constant DC link voltage without reference to the motor speed. The current ripple causes hysteresis loss and makes noise. In addition, the switching loss on the inverter increases in proportion to the rise in the DC link voltage. In this paper, we propose the variable DC link voltage control method to reduce the current ripple in the PMSM drive system. We show reduction effect of the current repple and the switching loss through simulation results.

This paper presents a new current control method to reduce the torque ripple due to phase commutation, when the unipolar PWM method is applied for the phase current control of brushless DC motor. Phase commutation bring about an instantaneous change in the average voltage of conducting phase so that current undulates, and this undulating current generates torque ripple. In this paper, we analyze average voltage variations of conducting phase in commutation period with PWM pattern and design current controller to compensate average variations. In addition, we prove the validity of proposed method by experimental results.

This paper deals with the optimal design of a permanent magnet linear synchronous motor (PMLSM) with the analysis of prototype PMLSM. In the PMLSM, thrust ripple is one of the causes disturbing high-precision position control. Therefore, Response surface methodology (RSM), one of the optimization methods, is applied to obtain the shape decreasing thrust ripple of the prototype PMLSM. In the end, characteristic analysis of the PMLSM is performed by space harmonic method for shortening of a computation time, and final results is verified by finite element analysis.

In this paper, a new current control algorithm is proposed for four-switch three-phase brushless DC(BLDC) motor drives, which are suitable for low cost applications. A current reference generation scheme is developed and implemented to obtain high performance characteristics in the four-switch system, such as small torque ripple and fast dynamic speed/torque response. Especially, the proposed scheme can successfully reduce the torque ripple during commutations, so that it can be expected that the four-switch system can be much more practically applied for the industrial application areas.
