The nonlinear active filter state-space representation model is elaborated in the synchronous d-q frame rotating at the mains fundamental frequency. This state-space model is seen as two separate subsystems, namely an inner multiple-input multiple-output model with fast dynamics and an outer single-input single-output model with slow dynamics. The proposed nonlinear MIMO predictive control law is applied to the inner loop forcing the currents to track their references that are extracted from the sensed nonlinear load currents by applying the synchronous reference frame method. The outer DC voltage loop uses a proportional-integral compensator and the compensated error is added to the inner loop d-axis current reference. In addition to good tracking behavior, the predictive control guarantees stability and improves robustness. Simulation results demonstrate the expected performance of the shunt active filter.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

The paper emphasises on converter control strategy, and its implementation by means of parallel operated, dual 8-bit microcontrollers. One of the microcontrollers is employed for user interface purposes, such as long term records, display and alarm facilities, which are inherently slow processes. The fast processing speed required by output voltage setting, current limit, and load current sharing however, is fulfilled by the second microcontroller, which adjusts the output voltages of modules. The proposed dual-processor based digital controller provides an extended operating output voltage range, user programmable current limit setting, serial-communication based active load current sharing between modules, and automatic derating without extra hardware requirement. Overload and output short-circuit protection features are also software-controlled. The controller is tested successfully on six parallel operating, 1.8 W, 0-70 V telecommunication power supplies.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

Two kinds of differential and common mode noises are generated in motor drive systems. A method is proposed that controls the differential mode noises by symmetrically forming the structure of the positive and negative power transmission lines of the power converter using a four-layer printed power circuit technique. Simulations done using the method show that differential mode currents appearing between the terminals of the power converters and the smoothing capacitors can be almost completely eliminated and the common mode currents are shunted into the artificial ground plane. Another method is also proposed that controls the shunted common mode currents so as to prevent series resonance phenomena by inserting a damping impedance between the frame of the machine and the ground. Experiments verify that the common mode currents generated in the motor drive systems can be effectively reduced by the two proposed methods.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

With the help of this new bonding technique several power MOSFETs are connected to a bipolar disc-type device structure. The MOSFET dies are used to switch the BIMOS-device. At the same time, the reverse conducting diode of the MOSFETs operates as a pn-junction of the classical thyristor structure during on-state. The proposed technology accomplishes the fabrication of BIMOS-devices without bonding wires, which are used in state-of-the-art MTO and ETO devices. Device operation similar to a fully integrated structure can be achieved without the technological problems in manufacturing VLSI-structures on large disc-type devices. In this paper, different MTO type device topologies based on the proposed idea are presented and compared by finite element simulation results.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

The method consists of connecting the three-phase neutral to the mid-point of the DC bus when the voltage dips. This changes the front-end from a six-pulse configuration to a series connection of two half-wave connections. The modified configuration provides a higher DC bus voltage and can avoid undervoltage tripping of the drive. The principle of the proposed approach is discussed in detail, and verified through computer simulations. A modification of the method for application in three-wire systems without a neutral is also discussed briefly. An additional function that the proposed circuit can perform is balancing of the DC bus capacitor voltages.","PeriodicalId":202482,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Conference. 37th IAS Annual Meeting (Cat.

For small power applications of BLDCM drives, due to the use of battery and limited space for heat dissipation, reduction of power consumption is one of the main concerns for the development of pulse-width modulation (PWM) technique. This paper presents a novel PWM technique for small power BLDCM drives, which significantly reduces the conduction losses, and thereby dramatically reducing the heat dissipation. Comparative results with conventional PWM technique are fully explored to highlight the advantages of the presented novel technique.
