In this paper, we propose an electric circuit using one common-arm of H-Bridge inverters to reduce the number of switching components in the multi-level inverter combined with H-Bridge inverters and transformers. And furthermore, we suggested a new multi-level PWM inverter using PWM level to reduce THD (Total Harmonic Distortion). We use a phase-shift switching method that has the same rate of usage at each transformer. Also, we test the proposed prototype 9-level inverter to clarify the proposed electric circuit and reasonableness of the control signal for the proposed multi-level PWM inverter.

This paper presents a distributed winding type axial flux permanent magnet synchronous generator (AFPMSG) with reduced the total harmonic distortion (THD), suitable for wind turbine generation systems. Although the THD of the proposed distributed winding type is more reduced than the concentrated winding type, the unbalance of the phase back EMF occurs. To improve the unbalance of the phase back EMF and the output power of the distributed winding type AFPMSG, the Kriging based on the latin hypercube sampling (LHS) is utilized. Finally, these optimization results are confirmed by experimental results. As a result, the unbalance of the phase back EMF and the output power of the distributed winding type AFPMSG were improved while maintaining the total harmonic distortion (THD) and the average phase back EMF.

This paper presents the feature extraction of fault currents related to the multi-shot reclosing scheme in the power distribution system. In order to get the fault current waveform, we have measured the fault currents by the fault recorders which have been installed at the secondary side of 154/22.9[kV] substation transformer. These waveforms are classified into temporary and permanent fault. For the classified waveforms, Fourier transform is used to extract the feature of the fault current waveforms. After the waveforms are analyzed by using Fourier transform, the magnitude spectrum and the relative variation of THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) are calculated. And then the relative variation of THD is great in the temporary faults, and is small in the permanent faults.

This paper presents a remote patient monitoring system for diagnostic pure-tone audiometry. A pure-tone audiometer was developed for basic hearing screening; its performance was evaluated according to international standards in terms of linearity, accuracy, and total harmonic distortion. Pure-tone audiometry has a maximum hearing level of 104.9 dB HL that is comparable with other commercial products. The audiometer shows satisfactory linearity with a deviation of ${\pm}0.4dB$, an accuracy of ${\pm}0.025%$, and a total harmonic distortion (THD) of 0.21%. The remote patient monitoring systems include remote control devices based on wide area network (WAN) connections and an audiometer connected in series. Through experimentation, we successfully performed real-time diagnostic communication without delay in transferring audiometric data. This system is expected to supply domestic equipment in the audiometric market and to improve the quality of life of patients in non-clinical environments.

본 논문은 부스트 PFC (Power Factor Correction) 컨버터의 경부하시, 컨버터의 인덕터 전류 왜곡을 수학적으로 분석하고 원인을 정의한다. 경부하시 평균 전류 모드제어에서 인덕터 전류가 불연속적으로 도통하게 되어 부정확한 인덕터 전류 평균값이 전류 제어에 반영된다. 예측 전류 모드제어에서는 인덕터 전류에 비해 전류 리플이 상대적으로 커져 전류 왜곡이 심해진다. 또한 모델 예측 전류제어의 경우 인덕터 전류의 첨두치 부근에서 스위치가 OFF된다. 인덕터 전류 왜곡은 total harmonic distortion 증가와 역률 감소를 유발하기 때문에 반드시 해결되어야 한다. 본 논문은 수학적 분석을 기반으로 부스트 PFC 컨버터의 경부하시 전류 왜곡을 완화할 수 있는 설계 절차를 선정한다. 마지막으로 hardware-in-the-loop simulation을 사용하여 경부하시 제어 방법들을 비교분석했다.

For a shunt power quality controller (SPQC) the DC side voltage value which is closely related to the compensation performance is a significant parameter. Buy so far, very little discussion has been conducted on this in a quantitative manner by previous publications. In this paper, a method to design the DC side voltage of SPQC is presented according to the compensation performance in the single-phase system and the three-phase system respectively. First, for the reactive current and the harmonic current compensation, a required minimal value of the DC side voltage with a zero total harmonic distortion (THD) of the source current and a unit power factor is obtained for a typical load, through the equivalent circuit analysis and the Fourier Transform analytical expressions. Second, when the DC side voltage of SPQC is lower than the above-obtained minimal value, the quantitative relationship between the DC side voltage and the THD after compensation is also elaborated using the curve diagram. Hardware experimental results verify the design method.

This paper presents harmonic evaluation of an IAT(Intra Airport Transit) system in Incheon International Airport. It will be used electric vehicles with 80 kW per car that are produced Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, and one car is constructed with SIV(Static Inverter), VVVF(Variable Voltage and Variable Frequency) and two induction motor. The operated vehicles in the IAT system are rapidly changing DC load, and at a feeding substation, 3-phase electric power is transferred to DC 750 V by rectifier. Since, vehicles are also changing continuously, the voltages for the DC load fluctuate in the IAT system, and moreover, the fluctuating voltages generate high-order harmonics. This means that there is the difficulty in maintaining power quality in KEPCO systems' side. Therefore, the power quality of the IAT system in Incheon International Airport is evaluated using PSCAD/EMTDC simulator in the paper. The THD(Total Harmonic Distortion) of voltages and TDD(Total Demand Distortion) of currents, indices are calculated for the IAT system using the results of PSCAD/EMTDC dynamic simulation.

The single resonant inverter is widely employed in typical inductive power transfer (IPT) systems to generate a high-frequency current in the primary side. However, the power capacity of a single resonant inverter is limited by the constraints of power electronic devices and the relevant cost. Consequently, IPT systems fail to meet high-power application requirements, such as those in rail applications. Total harmonic distortion (THD) may also violate the standard electromagnetic interference requirements with phase shift control under light load conditions. A power regulation approach with selective harmonic elimination is proposed on the basis of a parallel multi-inverter to upgrade the power levels of IPT systems and suppress THD under light load conditions by changing the output voltage pulse width and phase shift angle among parallel multi-inverters. The validity of the proposed control approach is verified by using a 1,412.3 W prototype system, which achieves a maximum transfer efficiency of 90.602%. Output power levels can be dramatically improved with the same semiconductor capacity, and distortion can be effectively suppressed under various load conditions.

본 논문에서는 단일 스위치 3상 승압형 컨버터 입력전류의 왜형을 개선하기 위한 6고조파 주입 PWM 방식이 제안디었다. 주기적인 6고조파 전압이 한 스위칭 사이클 내에 컨버터 스위치의 듀비티를 가변하도록 제어회로에 주입되었다. 그 결과 입력 상전류는 입력전압을 따라가고 거의 1에 가까운 역률을 얻었다. 실험결과는 3상 입력 AC 140∼220V, 400V∼6kW 저항부하와 3상 AC 220V, 비선형 부하인 CO2 아크 용접기에 의하여 입증하였다.

본 연구에서는 분산전원이 연계된 배전계통에서 발생하는 고조파를 평가하고자 PSCAD/EMTDC를 이용하여 분산전원 배전계통 연계 시의 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 실계통과 유사한 배전계통 및 태양광발전 시스템을 모델링하여 연계지점을 구간마다 시뮬레이션을 수행하였다. 고조파 연계기준(IEEE Std 1547과 IEEE Std 519)을 적용하여 알고리즘을 작성하고, 시뮬레이션 데이터는 FFT로 변환하여 THD와 TDD로 구분하여 평가하였다. 구간별로 구분하여 평가한 고조파 함유량은 분산전원을 연계하지 않은 상태와 각 구간과 Case 별로 구분하여 평가하여 연계하기 전과 비교하여 고조파를 파악한 결과 모든 배전계통의 구간에서 고조파 분포가 적합하다는 평가를 할 수 있었으며, 부하로 선정한 50kW 유도모터의 특성으로 인해 구간 2에서의 고조파 분포가 증가함으로서 연구 결과의 효용성을 입증할 수 있었다.
