The single phase input signal is considered as a three-phase signal whose two phases are set to zero constantly. The concept of positive sequence and negative sequence PARK transformation is promoted into single phase signal analysis. Self-decoupling is utilized instead of cross-decoupling in order to simplify the structure. Steady-state simulation/experimental results all verified the method.

The control-to-output voltage transfer function of the converters, usually predicted by averaging models, and the classical feedback control techniques are replaced by the state space average state block diagram analysis. These state block diagrams are obtained for state space averaging matrixes of the converters combined with their continuous conduction mode differential equations. This decoupling technique yields first order control transfer functions allowing easier synthesis of controllers. The disturbance rejection properties of the controller are analyzed and improved by disturbance input decoupling. The technique is applied to buck converters, and the controllers demonstrate good transient response compared to classical voltage controllers. The structure is easy implement with relevant applications in integrated circuit manufacturing and general industrial environments.","PeriodicalId":161915,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128932135","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate prediction of the conductor temperature ahead of time subject to various conductor overload conditions is the most critical and challenging step when determining the line dynamic thermal rating. An Echo State Network (ESN) based identifier has been demonstrated to identify the overhead conductor thermal dynamics under different weather conditions in a batch learning mode with good accuracy [1]. Through the use of the ESN model, the prediction of conductor temperature can be obtained easily, which in turn helps determine the line dynamic rating in real time. This paper proposes a Sliding-Window (SW) based online learning algorithm to obtain the online adaptation of the ESN-based thermal dynamics identifier to any new/changed ambient weather conditions along the overhead conductor on a continuous base. Both simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm. This method requires only temperatures and line current as inputs and its simplified calculation makes it an attractive and cost effective solution to real-time implementation.","PeriodicalId":161915,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130801481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An auxiliary circuit is typically used to help the main power switches turn on with zero-voltage switching (ZVS), but previously proposed auxiliary circuits are limited in power and are not suited to higher power applications. In the paper, a new auxiliary circuit that can be used in applications where paralleled MOSFETs are used is proposed.

Due to the adoption of freewheel switching duration averaging, the optimal freewheel durations in each phase of the SIDO converter are acquired within one switching cycle. The optimal freewheel switching duration improves the efficiency of the SIDO converter, especially during unbalanced load conditions, by reducing the conduction losses due to the lossy freewheel switch. The proposed controller also accelerates the freewheel switching current adjustment process during the load transient periods. The proposed converter, operating in the pseudo-continuous conduction mode (PCCM), has been verified through fully transistor-based HSPICE simulation results, with a 130-nm CMOS process. It achieves a maximum efficiency of 90.1%, at an output power of 430 mW and a switching frequency of 500 kHz. For a load change from 100 mA to 50 mA, the proposed technique reduces the conduction losses during the freewheel switching duration by 99.52%, compared with the traditional methods.","PeriodicalId":161915,"journal":{"name":"2010 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition","volume":"92 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132784935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
