In this paper, a novel utility connected photovoltaic power generation system with unity power factor and uninterruptable power system facility and its control strategy are proposed. The proposed photovoltaic(PV) system is connected in parallel between utility and load. The PV system provides an uninterruptable voltage to load, a maximum power tracking to solar array, and power factor correction to the utility. The proposed system has the following advantages compared with the conventional utility connected PV system. 1. Harmonic elimination Function 2. Feeding the photovoltaic energy to the utility 3. Providing the uninterruptible power source along battery to the load In case that the photovoltaic array system is on the poor power generation, the battery and capacitor of the PV system are charged by three phase utility source and the inverter in the PV system only provides the reactive current to eliminate the harmonic current exited on the utility. In the normal operation mode, the PV system supplies active power to load and reactive power to utility in order to maintain the unity power factor and to regulate ac load voltage.

This paper proposes a power factor correction circuit with a high efficiency over a wide load range characteristics for a communication power supply. And the characteristic verification is applied to produce a design of prototype. Power factor correction circuit can reduce conduction losses by applying Bridgeless Boost Converter for efficiency. Over a wide load range to maintain the efficient, the control method of a PWM controller is divided by two sections according to the load area. In the low-load region, it was reduced switching losses by applying the critical conduction mode control method. On the other hand, in the heavy-load area, the hysteresis current control method is used to maintain the high efficiency over a wide load range by limiting the peak noise of the inductor.

A new single stage power factor correction(PFC) AC/DC converter based on zero voltage switching(ZVS) full bridge topology is proposed. Since the series-connected two transformers act as both output inductor and main transformer by turns, the proposed converter has a wide ZVS range without additional devices for ZVS. Furthermore, since there is no need to use an output inductor, the proposed converter features high power density. The proposed converter gives the good power factor correction and low line current harmonics distortion. A mode analysis and experiment results are presented to verify the validity of the proposed converter.

본 논문에서는 소프트 스위칭 방식의 부스트 회로를 이용한 역률 개선 회로를 새롭게 제안하였다. 제안한 역률개선 회로를 구성하는 내부 회로는 기존 PWM 부스트 회로와 전반적인 동작은 동일하며 단지 스위칭 순간에만 영전압 혹은 영전류 스위칭 동작을 하게 된다. 따라서 기존의 PWM 회로와 같이 제어가 용이할 뿐만 아니라 소프트 스위칭에 의한 고효율 성능을 얻게 된다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 소프트 스위칭 회로를 이용하여 높은 효율을 가지는 역률 개선 회로를 체계적으로 설계하기 위한 방안을 제시하였다. 아울러 실험을 통하여 이러한 설계방법의 타당성과 제안한 역률 개선 회로의 우수성을 입증하였다.

Switching power supplies are widely used in many industrial fields. Power factor correction(PFC) circuits have tendency to be applied in new power supply designs. The input active power factor correction(APFC) circuits can be implemented using either the two-stage approach or the single-stage approach. The single-stage PFC circuit has advantage to reduce the number of components by eliminating a need for the PFC switch and control circuit. However, unlike in the two-stage approach, the do voltage on the energy storage capacitor in a single-stage PFC circuit is not well regulated. As a result. in universal line application($90{\sim}265Vac$), the storage capacitor voltage varies with the load and line variation. In this paper, the performance of output voltage regulation and transient response are clarified here. The validity of designed boost PFC circuit is confirmed by MATLAB simulation and experimental results of 2 [kW] prototype converter.

This paper was development a discharge lamp ballast in order to wave improvement of high power factor and high efficiency. The discharge lamp ballast consists of a power factor correction circuit and a correction circuit on switching frequency of inverter. Instead of passive power factor circuit, active power factor circuit is adopted. Because it has the advantage of size, weight, total harmonic distortion, out DC voltage regulation, and power factor. The power factor circuit with MG34262 is controlled by variable frequency discontinuous mode. Results experiments, discharge lamp ballast is showed to have excellent for the proposed electronic ballast's operation and characteristics.

This paper proposes a single-stage half-bridge electronic ballast with a high power factor using only a single coupled inductor. Compared to conventional high power factor electronic ballasts, the proposed ballast is a simpler circuit with a low cost and a high reliability. The proposed ballast is made up of a power-factor-correction (PFC) circuit and a self-oscillating class-D inverter. The PFC and inverter stages of the proposed ballast are simplified by sharing only a single coupled inductor and two common switches. The proposed PFC circuit can achieve a high power factor and low voltage stresses of the switches. A saturable transformer in the self-oscillating class-D inverter determines the switching frequency of the ballast. Experimental results obtained on a 30W fluorescent lamp are discussed.

본 논문에서는 임계전류도통모드로 동작하는 디지털제어 단상 역률개선(PFC; power-factor correction) 컨버터를 제안한다. 제안한 컨버터는 PFC를 위하여 DC-DC 부스트 컨버터 구조를 이용하며 인덕터전류를 임계도통모드로 동작시킨다. 또한 제안한 컨버터는 마이컴을 이용하여 디지털적으로 제어되기 때문에 제어회로는 간단해지고 컨버터는 더욱 효과적으로 동작한다. 본 논문에서는 먼저 제안한 컨버터의 동작원리를 설명하고 회로를 해석한다. 그리고 본 논문은 제안한 컨버터의 구현방법을 소프트웨어와 회로설계 부분으로 구분하여 구체적인 설계예와 함께 설명한다. 또한 설계된 회로파라미터에 의한 프로토타입 컨버터의 실험결과로 제안한 컨버터가 단상 PFC 컨버터로써 좋은 동작 특성을 가지고 있음을 보인다.
