This paper discusses the harmonics compensation of the constant dc-capacitor voltage-control (CDCVC)-based strategy of smart charger (SC) for electric vehicles (EVs) in single-phase three-wire distribution feeders (SPTWDFs) under the distorted source voltage and load currents conditions. The basic principle of the CDCVC-based harmonics compensation strategy under the distorted source voltage and load...
This paper presents a detection method of small-foreign-metal particles using a 400 kHz silicon-carbide (SiC)-metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect-transistors (MOSFETs) high-frequency inverter. A 400 kHz SiC-MOSFETs high-frequency inverter is developed and applied to small-foreign-metal particles detection on high-performance chemical films (HPCFs).

We propose an annotation scheme for the summarization of Japanese judgment documents. This paper reports the details of the development of our annotation scheme for this task. We also conduct a human study where we compare the annotation of independent annotators. The end goal of our work is summarization, and our categories and the link system is a consequence of this. We propose three types of generic...
This paper discusses reduction of capacitances of dc capacitors in the previously proposed smart charger (SC) with a sinusoidal charging-discharging lithium-ion battery for electric vehicles in single-phase three-wire distribution feeders.

This paper proposes LED current control method of dimmable LED driver with dual active bridge (DAB) DC-DC converter for 1kW-class LED floodlight. The LED current control method is discussed in detail. The conventional LED driver cannot control turn-off time of LED current because the power flows from source side to LED floodlight side only. DAB converter is a bidirectional DC-DC converter formed by...

This paper proposes an inrush current suppressor for a squirrel-cage induction machine (SCIM) with phase-leading capacitors using a matrix converter (MC) in a large-capacity wind power generation system (WPGS). The reference output voltage of the MC is determined by multiplying the SCIM current with the variable control gain. Thus, the MC performs as resistors for the inrush current of an SCIM with...
This paper proposes a new cooperative-control strategy for a 400-W class light-emitting diode (LED) driver consisting of two DC/DC converters operating in the discontinuous current mode (DCM). In the cooperative control method, one DC/DC converter is selected to supply the output current for the LED, based on the reference value of the LED current. Thus, the proposed cooperative-control strategy achieves...

The experimental results also show that the influence of heat leakage took a longer time to appear using the pre-cooled...
