This paper presents a new method to compensate the non-linearity for matrix converter drives using PQR instantaneous Power theory. The non-linearity of matrix converter drives such as commutation delay, turn-on and turn-off time of switching device, and on-state switching device voltage drop is modelled by PQR power theory and compensated using a reference current control scheme. The proposed method does not need any additional hardware and off-line experimental measurements. The proposed compensation method is applied for high performance induction motor drives using a 3 kW matrix converter system without a speed sensor. Simulation and experimental results show the proposed method using PQR power theory Provides good compensating characteristic.

The compensation problem of error and various problems due to delay of speed sensor itself and speed detection have issued in case using speed sensor in the adjustable speed control of induction motor. This paper have applied the stator flux oriented vector control algorithm and space voltage vector PWM method in order to improve an dynamic character of voltage-source inverter system, and also used the better IP controller in the speed response than Pl controller as speed controller. This paper estimated the rotator speed using input current of inductor motor and flux component invoked through voltage drop by terminal voltage and stator resistor.

In inverters, time delays are inserted in the switching signals to prevent the dc lind shortage. This causes detrimental effects on the performance of the inverters, that is, the fundamental voltage drop and the generation of low order harmonics. This paper derives simple formula to describe the time delay effects in PWM inverters, where the effects may become significant because of relatively high switching frequencies. To compensate the tice delay effects, this paper presents two methods which are suitable for sinusoidal PWM and memory-based PWM respectively. Both are simple, easy to implement, and are shown to be effective, through the experiments, in improving the output waveform of PWM inverters.

When a high performance current control is desired, a computation time delay of a digital control system may deteriorate the control performance of a current controller. Such a non-negligible effect can be considerable in transient state. This paper deals with the modified predictive current control that compensates the time delay effects of a conventional predictive current control. The method is closely related to a local average current control and a symmetrical PWM pattern generation. Also some theoretical approaches are presented to describe the voltage saturation boundary of the power converter. For validation, the proposed method is applied to an active power filter system. The experimental results show considerable improvement in current tracking capability.

This paper presents a implementation method of reliable speed limitation controller considering motor parameter variation in high speed operation. In spinning process of drum washing machine, speed increase has to be limited when unallowable imbalance mass is detected. Otherwise, severe noise and vibration can happen because noise and vibration are proportional to imbalance mass. To detect imbalance mass, d-axis current magnitude is used. However, we have to compensate for back-emf and power supply variation by means of detecting them because d-axis current is affected by both of them. On the other hand, we have to carefully estimate back-emf because back-emf is affected by stator resistance variation and inverter voltage error. Stator resistance variation can happen by manufacturing process for mass production or temperature variation in running. And there are inverter voltage errors between command voltage from micro-computer to inverter and real voltage from inverter to motor because of rising and falling time delay and turn-on resistance of power semiconductor switch. To solve this problem, we propose 2-step align current injection method which is to inject step-wise current right before starting. By this method, we can simply obtain stator resistance by ratio of voltage without inverter voltage error and current, and we can measure inverter voltage error. So we can obtain more exact model current, and then by simple calculation with compensation gain, we can estimate more accurate motor back-emf. We show that this method works well. It is verified through experiments.

In order to maintain customer voltages within allowable limit($220{\pm}13V$) as much as possible, tap operation strategy of SVR(Step Voltage Regulator) installed in distribution system is very important, considering the scheduled delay time(30 sec) of SVR. However, the compensation of BESS(Battery Energy Storage System) during the delay time of SVR is being required because the customer voltages in distribution system interconnected with PV(Photovoltaic) system have a difficultly to be kept within allowable limit. Therefore, this paper presents the optimal voltage stabilization method in distribution system by using coordination operation algorithm between BESS and SVR. It is confirmed that customer voltage in distribution system can be maintained within allowable limit($220{\pm}13V$).

This paper presents a precision voltage control technique of a single phase PWM inverter for a constant voltage and constant frequency(CVCF) applications. The proposed control employes a PLL compensating loop which minimize the steady state error and phase delay. The computer simulation and experiment are carried out for the actual single phase PWM inverter and the results well demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed control.

The paper describes a implementation of space vector pulse-width modulation (SVPWM) voltage source inverter using Field Programmable Gate Array(FPGA) for a induction motor control system. The implemented chip is included logic circuits for SVPWM, dead time compensation and speed detection using Quick Logic, QL16X24B. The maximum operating frequency and delay time can be set to 110MHz and 6 nsec. The designed FPGA for SVPWM can be incorporated with a digital signal processing to provide a simple and effective solution for high performance voltage source inverter drives. Simulation and Implementation results are shown to verify the usefulness of FPGA as a Application Specific Integrated Circuit(ASIC) in power electronics applications

This paper proposes a control method for reducing the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the grid current of three-phase grid-connected inverter systems when the grid voltage is distorted. The THD of the grid current caused by grid voltage harmonics is derived by considering the phase delay and magnitude attenuation due to the hardware low-pass filter (LPF). The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality theory is used in order to search more easily for the minimum point of the THD. Both the gain and angle of the compensation voltage at the minimum point of the THD of the grid current are derived with the variation of cut-off frequencies of the hardware LPF. Simulation and experimental results show the validity of the proposed control methods.
