The system consists of a personal computer with A/D and D/A converters and a visual development environment that combines the convenience of direct hardware access and power of visualized software programming. With this system, various motor drive configurations can be flexibly simulated, tested and evaluated at real time, and also control signal can be fed back to real drive system. The simulation results show that it is possible to run a virtual motor drive with hardware in loop as a real one at real time.","PeriodicalId":254764,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 1999 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

They give AC sinusoidal voltage under linear or nonlinear loads which is a basic tracking control problem. Since the duty cycle of a PWM inverter is unchanged within one switching period, inverters are very suitable to be represented by discrete-time state equations. A discrete-time sliding-mode controller based on an improved reaching condition has been proposed by Gao et. al. This paper applies this controller to control PWM inverters with linear and nonlinear loads. It is shown that good output responses are obtained in both cases.","PeriodicalId":254764,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 1999 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

An improved class-D amplifier is presented and analyzed. The ripple of the high power class-D amplifier stage is compensated by a small (low power) high dynamic amplifier, which can be realized either as an analog one or as a second power class-D converter. The main part of the power is handled by a half-bridge with relatively small switching frequency (compared to the output bandwidth) and therefore low switching losses. The resulting output ripple is compensated by using the transformer-coupled supplement power processor. Only small filters are necessary. The concept is well suited for high quality AC-sources and mains simulators.","PeriodicalId":254764,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 1999 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.

The simulation results indicate that the performance of the two-stage control scheme is comparable with that obtained using field-oriented control. Besides, the improved control scheme is much simpler to implement and the performance is less sensitive to machine parameter changes.","PeriodicalId":254764,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the IEEE 1999 International Conference on Power Electronics and Drive Systems.
