For manifolds with topologies that strongly differ from the standard topology of Rn, using common filters created for linear domains can yield misleading results. While there is a lot of ongoing research on estimation on the unit circle, higher-dimensional problems particularly pose a challenge. One important generalization of the unit circle is the unit hypersphere. In this paper, we propose a recursive...
Sharding implementations use consistent hashing for distributing a database uniformly across the servers in the topology. Each data item in the database is identified uniquely by a sharding key. The sharding keys are hashed into a hash ring. This hash ring is split into equal sized partitions and each server is allocated an equal number of partitions. Each partition represents a portion of the database,...
By using the zigzag transformer, the scheme of medium-voltage simultaneous AC and DC distribution network is designed. The topological structure of power router is put forward based on the simultaneous AC and DC distribution network. The feasibility of the simultaneous AC and DC distribution network and power router are verified by using MATLAB/Simulink. Taking line voltage drop and line loss as performance...
Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) has great application prospects for the flexible HVDC transmission, high-power motor drive and so on. In this paper, a discrete-time model of the MMC based on the virtual ergodic method is proposed for the typical MMC topology. First, the MMC topology is analyzed and its continuous-time model is established. Then, the state equation in the continuous-time model is...
It is well know that the interaction between poorly damped LC input filter with dc-dc converter lead to degradation of dynamic performance and fault scenario of the system. This problem also often occurs in fuel cell systems. Due to the relatively low and unregulated output voltage, the high gain boost converter is need in such application. A floating interleaved boost converter (FIBC) is selected...
Transformerless inverters are being widely used in low power grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) generation systems. Transformer elimination has many advantages; it reduces cost, size, weight and also increases the whole system efficiency. However, once the transformer is removed, there is no galvanic isolation between grid and PV array and, as a consequence, a leakage current may appears due to the...
In DC-biased sinusoidal current vernier reluctance machines (DC-biased-VRMs), the DC exciting winding and AC armature winding are integrated into one single winding. Therefore, the copper loss can be reduced with torque density increasing, and only one set of power electronic converter is demanded. This paper is to propose a DC-biased-VRMs drive with asymmetrical power electronics devices and corresponding...

A double closed loop control strategy of which inner loop current and outer loop power control is proposed. The...
The modular multilevel converter (MMC) has become the most promising converter technology for high power applications. However, to get more number of levels in the output voltage, a conventional MMC requires large number of submodules. The main technical challenges of an MMC, with a large number of submodules, are the requirement of large number of semiconductor switches, submodule capacitors and...
This paper proposes possibilities of Y-connected three-leg topologies, that are built from combinations of two-level and three-level legs (hybrid structures). Therefore, four topologies are studied and compared in aspects such as harmonic distortion of output voltages and rating of power switches. Additionally, semiconductor losses comparisons in different scenarios of load (either high current or...

This paper presents a new topology of multilevel converter that allows to increase the number of output voltage levels reducing the numbers of semiconductors necessary in comparison with the standard multilevel converters like Active Neutral Point Clamped (ANPC) and Stacked Multicell Converter (SMC). This new topology called Reduced Multilevel Converter (RMC) consists of a tandem connection of basic...
Paralleled inverters have the merits of high power rating, improved reliability and convenient maintenance, but zero-sequence circulating current (ZSCC) will occur and lead to current distortion and system loss. The ZSCC control is more complicated when adopting three-level topology and increasing paralleled number. This paper addresses the suppression of ZSCC in multi-paralleled three-level T-type...
In this paper, three configurations of three-phase ac-dc cascaded converters are presented. They are referred as basic configurations, and are composed by two three-phase bridges, where the second bridge is cascaded to the first by means of a three-phase injection transformer. Basic configurations have one bidirectional option (composed only by IGBT switches), and two unidirectional ones (composed...
