The single-phase PWM converter employing power semiconductors is currently applied to the power unit of high-speed rail vehicle and increasingly used as the front-end converter with properties of near unity power factor. Power factor and harmonics are increasingly important needs for drive system of high-speed rail vehicle. The proposed approach has many advantages which include fewer semiconductor components, simplified control, high performance features and satisfies IEC 555 harmonic current standards. Simulation results show that the dc-link voltage control obey the reference value during constant load and input current is near sinusoidal.

This paper studies particularly applicable method for sensorless Permanent Magnet Brushless DC(PMBLDC) Motor drive system. The waveform of the motor internal voltages (or back emf) contains a fundamental and higher order frequency harmonics. Therefore the third harmonics. component is extracted from the stator phase voltage. The resulting third harmonic signal keeps a constant phase relationship with the rotor flux for any motor speed and load condition. In addition, a simple starting method and a speed estimation approach are also proposed.

When the traction motor for urban transit E.M.U is driven with VVVF controlled inverter, the insulation degradation factors on the 200 Class insulation system of VPI process are analyzed with considering dielectric, mechanical properties, thermal stability, chemical resistivity and compatibility. A new test method of complex accelerating degradation is proposed to evaluate the insulation reliability and the long-term life including harmonic loss and transient surge stress due to PWM inverter drive.

In order to design or predict the performance of a cylindrical electrostatic motor it is necessary to analyze the torque generated by such a structure. In this paper a simple but sufficiently accurate analytical model is developed for use in design. Conformal mapping are used to model the capacitance and torque of the motor as a function of the rotor position, using a quasi-static, two-dimension approximation, the effect of an insulating dielectric layer on the stator or rotor is also evaluated.

A current-controlled scheme of pulse width modulation voltage source inverter (PWM VSI) has attracted considerable attention due to its fast response with current limit and especially suitable for potentially high performance applications such as AC motor drives and UPS systems. These features yield near-sinusoidal currents in the load with reduced current peaks, lower inverter switching frequency and reduce inverter and load stresses. A high performance current-controlled inverter must have a quick response in transient state and low harmonic current in steady state. This paper compares and shows the controlled-characteristics with hysteresis controller(HC), ramp comparison controller(RCC) and predictive controller(PC) of PWM inverter to control actual current of VSI-IM.

This paper studies the decentralized position/force control problem for constrained reconfigurable manipulator without torque sensing. A novel joint torque estimation scheme that exploits the existing structural elasticity of the manipulator joint with harmonic drive model is applied for each joint module. Based on the estimated joint torque and dynamic output feedback technique, a decentralized position/force control strategy is presented. In order to solve the problem of controller parameter perturbation, the non-fragile robust technique is introduced into the dynamic output feedback controller. Subsequently, the stability of the closed-loop system is proved using the Lyapunov theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique. Finally, two 2-DOF constrained reconfigurable manipulators with different configurations are applied to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme in numerical simulation.

This paper describes four switch three-phase Z-source rectifier with improved switching characteristics. This configuration has some advantages switching loss and optimal drive circuit. The rectifier has buck-boost function by shoot-through state. Also, the rectifier has the advantage of decreasing inrush current in start-up and transient states. In order to reduce harmonics PWM modulation technique with a variable index has been suggested. Four switch three-phase Z-source rectifier with improved switching characteristics can output stable DC voltage at the same time decreasing the system's harmonic current. And also the paper presents an application of DCC method in Z-source rectifier. Principles and dynamics of the system are discussed in detail. After having viewed the results we can confirm that the proposed method is eligible and efficient.

Front end AC to DC converters of the boost type are used in traction applications for generating the DC link for the inverters. A GTO based converter is usually switched with a switching frequency of 300 to 500Hz, resulting in low frequency harmonic problems. In order to avoid this, multiple converters with Phase shifted carrier waveforms are used to suppress the low frequency harmonics. A detailed study of an AC to DC converter, with two converters parallely operated with Phase shifted carrier wave farms is Presented in this paper.
