  • An uninterruptible power supply (UPS) allows small companies and domestic users to cope with power outages; but existing designs lack flexibility of control and require expensive battery maintenance, with a cost proportional to the outage compensation time. We combine a compact synchronous generator with a battery, with 10% of the capacity that would otherwise be required, to obtain a UPS with reduced maintenance costs for the same performance. Any UPS must respond immediately to a power loss, and our uninterruptible generator supply (UGS) is therefore built around real-time scheduling of its internal operations; this also makes it suitable for integration into the industrial gateway. The UGS is based on a real-time operating system, with an integrated wireless module providing connectivity to a web server, for monitoring and management, which can be performed remotely on a mobile device.

  • This paper presents a proper parallel control method using a conventional control and a repetitive control for improving the output voltage waveform of uninterruptable power supply. Although first-order prediction control method shows a good characteristics to rectifier load, it is not sufficient to reduce steady state errors generated in nonlinear loads such as rectifier loads and phase controled loads. So we also employed a repetitive control method. A repetitive control method can eliminate steady state errors in the distorted output voltage caused by cyclic loads. The presented control scheme is verified through simulation and experiment. Experimental results Implemented on a single phase PWM inverter equipped with a LC output filter with 3 kVA, 60 Hz are shown.

  • This paper addresses an improved naval combat UPS(Uninterruptable Power Supply) system under abnormal transients. Previously, thermistor and varistor elements were used to cope with transient overvoltage and overcurrent, however the UPS was frequently unavailable because it was vulnerable to abnormal transient voltage generated during system operation. In order to overcome this problem and protect UPS system, this paper proposes an input power cut-off circuit that detects the initial input power and abnormal transient voltage generated during operation, improvement of power control sequence, and a method to prevent malfunction of an inverter and CPU. The UPS system implementing the proposed method was simulated by input power variable test using programmable AC/DC generator, and finally validated its reliability and stability through field tests by mounting on multifunctional console of naval combat system.

  • The concept and results of a simple constant switching frequency delta modulation scheme suitable for DC-AC power conversion in uninterruptable power supply (UPS) applications are presented. Unlike the traditional delta modulation scheme, the scheme has a well defined harmonic spectrum, resulting in a simple filter design and reduced radio interference.

  • Recently, for increasing consumed power and informational society, confidence of power supply is demanded. Beside, owing to most of these loads are nonlonear, utility line is polluted by these components, therefore, it is demanded compensation of harmonic current. In times past, special order of harmonic current is only compensated by passive filter, but active power filter can compensate whole harmonic current. Therefore, this paper propose uninterruptable power supply(UPS) with performance of active power filter.
