In many countries, such as developing countries where electricity is scarce, small wind turbines in the form of Off Grid are an effective solution to solve power supply problems. In some countries, the expansion of power systems and the decline of electricity-intensive areas have led to the use of small wind power in urban road lighting, mobile communications base stations, aquaculture and seawater desalination. With this change, the size of the small wind power industry is expected to have greater potential than large-scale wind power. In the case of small wind power generators, the generator is controlled at a variable speed, and the voltage and current generated by the generator have many harmonic components. To solve this problem, the AC to DC converter to be studied in this paper is a three-phase step-up type converter with a single switch. The inductor current is controlled in discontinuous mode, and has a characteristic of having a unit power factor by eliminating the harmonic of the input current. The proposed converter is composed of LCL filter and three phase rectification boost converter at the input stage and a single phase full bridge for grid connection. It is a control system with energy storage system(ESS) that the system stabilization can be pursued against the electric power.

In this paper, interleaved boost converter is applied as a first-stage converter in switch mode power supply. The first-stage converter plays a role to improve power factor. Interleaved Boost Power Factor Corrector(IBPFC) can reduce input current ripple as a single voltage control loop only without inner current loop, because input current is divided each 50% by two switching devices. Each converter cell is also operated in discontinuous current mode and inductor current of each converter is discontinuous. Total input current which is composed by each converter cell is continuous current. Thus, IBPFC is able to improve input current ripple. IBPFC operating in discontinuous current mode can be classified as six modes from switching state and be carried out state space averaging small signal modeling. A control transfer function is obtained according to the modeling. Not only steady-state characteristics but also dynamic characteristics is considered. Single voltage control loop is also constructed by the control transfer function. From experimental result, improvement of power factor and input current ripple are verified.

A new single stage power factor corrected AC/DC converter has been proposed, that is unified with buck topology and suitable for universal input. The design example of the proposed converter lot 5V 12A application has been presented. The design considerations and simulation results for the proposed converter have been shown. The simulation results show that the line input current harmonics can meet IEC 1000-3-2 Class D requirements for the line input voltage from 90 to 260V.

본 논문에서는 벅-부스트 컨버터와 하프브리지 컨버터가 결합된 형태가 구성된 고역률 AC-DC 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안된 컨버터는 주회로와 제어회로를 단단으로 구성함으로써 입력역률을 개선함과 동시에 출력전압의 제어가 가능한 구조이다. 역률개선용 컨버터로 벅-부스트 컨버터를 사용함으로써 링크 캐패시터의 DC 링크전압을 입력 라인전압의 최대값 이하로 유지하여 회로의 각 소자가 받는 전압 스트레스가 감소하므로 내압이 낮은 소자를 사용하여 효율을 높일 수 있다. 비대칭 제어기법을 통해 두 스위치의 데드타임을 일정하게 유지하여 스위칭손실을 줄였고 출력단에는 동기정류기를 사용하여 정류손실을 줄임으로써 효율을 개선한다.

In this paper, a unified control strategy using the current space vector modulation (CSVM) technique is proposed and applied to a bidirectional three-phase DC/AC converter. The operation of the converter changes with the direction of the power flow. In the charging mode, it works as a buck type rectifier; and during the discharging mode, it operates as a boost type inverter, which makes it suitable as an interface between high voltage AC grids and low voltage energy storage devices. This topology has the following advantages: high conversion efficiency, high power factor at the grid side, tight control of the charging current and fast transition between the charging and discharging modes. The operating principle of the mode analysis, the gate signal generation, the general control strategy and the transition from a constant current (CC) to a constant voltage (CV) in the charging mode are discussed. The proposed control strategy has been validated by simulations and experimental results obtained with a 1kW laboratory prototype using supercapacitors as an energy storage device.
