The proposed method eliminates the need for current sensing, and simultaneously offers the performance results comparable to those of continuous conduction mode (CCM) scheme. This scheme also maintains the simplicity comparable to that of discontinuous conduction (DCM). Only the output voltage and the rectified input voltage are monitored to vary the duty cycle of the boost switch within a line cycle so that the third-order harmonic, which is the lowest order harmonic (LOH) of the input current, is reduced. As a result, the total harmonic distortion (THD) of the line current as well as the input power factor is improved. The proposed method is developed for constant switching frequency boost rectifier. Simulation and experimental results are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control method.","PeriodicalId":166704,"journal":{"name":"2007 7th International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133711156","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}

The unbalanced voltages cause negative effects to the DFIG such as torque pulsation and increased stator current. Based on the symmetrical component theory, the negative sequence of the stator voltage can be extracted from the three-phase stator voltage and fed to compensate the rotor voltage to reduce the unbalanced effect. The magnitude of the compensating negative sequence is calculated from the negative sequence of the stator voltage and rotor speed. The proposed method shows a promising result for reduction of torque and reactive power pulsations.","PeriodicalId":166704,"journal":{"name":"2007 7th International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132105510","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}

Amongst them, dq-theory is well-known in which state-space equations are used for the analysis. Power systems, however, use the frequency-domain information in phasor-related studies such as load flow analysis. Because time-domain models of FACTS controllers cannot be directly applied to the power system analysis, an intelligent model can usefully bridge the time-domain information to the corresponding frequency-domain data. This paper proposes two neural network identifiers based on the existing time-domain average model of STATCOM. Extended resultant bridge presents an average-neural model of STATCOM, which can be analytically applied to power systems. To this extent, design and development of two neural network identifiers are performed using the dynamic neural network (DNN) and the multi-layer perceptron (MLP). To verify the developed models, the exact solutions obtained from the average model of STATCOM are compared with the outcomes of the DNN and the MLP identifiers. Moreover performance of the two identifiers is accordingly compared as well.","PeriodicalId":166704,"journal":{"name":"2007 7th International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134360359","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}

To maintain the load voltage at the desired value and to control the active power flow between the VCVSI and grid, the amplitude and phase angle of the inverter output voltage (power angle) must be controlled. Selecting the power angle operating range is an important factor which has a direct effect on various parameters, such as the size of a decoupling inductor, grid power factor and the power ratings of VCVSI components. It is shown how the optimum power angles can be chosen and by restricting the operation of this, the power factor can be maintained above 0.9 at different loads and operating conditions. The paper examines the steady state modeling and analysis of a single phase parallel processing UPS while maintaining a high system power factor under different conditions. Experimental and simulation results of a prototyped 1 KVA VCVSI confirms the validity of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":166704,"journal":{"name":"2007 7th International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134466969","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}

The second approach presented is non-identifier-based. Hence, no identification is necessary if the system possesses some structural attributes.
