Among various converters, the LLC electric current resonant converter attracts attention because of high power density, low noise and high efficiency. However, this converter cannot apply the analysis of averaging method, and impossible to derivate the transfer function, so designing is difficult. In this study, we devised a method to derive a frequency response characteristic with a transfer function...
The performance of interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM) drive system is affected by parameters variation and digital control delay, which increases the difficulty and complexity of analyzing and designing, a visualization technique is proposed in discrete time domain. First of all, D-partition method is used to obtain stable region of IPMSM current loop, while the sampling & computation...
This paper proposes a novel Dual Active Bridge (DAB) converter, which has an auxiliary inductor and a bi-directional switch connected in parallel to a transformer in order to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) over a wide load range and a wide battery voltage variation. In the proposed converter, the equivalent magnetizing inductance is changed by switching the auxiliary inductance depending on...
The paper investigates the near magnetic field performance of integrated CM and DM inductors. The reluctance model is developed for near magnetic field analysis. Based on the analysis, several integrated inductor structures using commercial EE/EI cores to achieve low near magnetic field emission are proposed. Simulations and experiments were conducted to verify the proposed inductor structures.
The grid inductance is a sensitive parameter to be considered in order not to degrade the control system performance and to guarantee the system stability. In this paper, the Grid Inductance estimation based on Generalized Integrators (GIGI) method is proposed. It carries out an online grid inductance detection, which disturbs the grid by injecting a time-limited and small-amplitude harmonic voltage...
This paper proposes a new current controller with modified decoupling and anti-windup schemes for a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive. In designing the controller, an improved voltage model, which is different from existing models in that it reflects all the nonlinear characteristics of the motor, is considered. In an actual PMSM, unintentional distortion occurs in inductance and flux...
GaN HEMT is generally characterized as fast switching and expected to achieve a power converter with high efficiency and high power density as a next-generation power semiconductor. However, the fast switching generates large switching noise, causing gate voltage fluctuation. Therefore, GaN HEMT can suffer from false triggering such as a false turn-on phenomenon due to its own low threshold voltage...
The More-Electric Aircraft (MEA) concept has been introduced as part of the process of reducing the environmental impact of air travel. Incorporating more electrical systems including motor drives has become increasingly attractive researched. High power density across the complete system is a key factor in the realization of this technology. This paper considers a motor drive sizing procedure with...
Silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductor technology has successfully penetrated several silicon (Si) application markets and is gaining momentum due to higher voltage withstand capability, higher switching capabilities (i.e., 100s of kHz), and ability to withstand higher operating temperatures (i.e., more than 200°C). When properly applied, SiC MOSFETs can switch in nanoseconds making this a promising...
In order to achieve high efficiency, IPT systems must work under resonance conditions. Since, the coupling coefficient is low (k<0.5) compared to a transformer, the compensation is done separately in the primary and the secondary sides. However, depending on the system, both systems can alter each other, creating pole-splitting or bifurcations. This paper presents a design criterion to ensure that...
This paper provides detailed analytical modeling and finite elements method (FEM) analysis of the medium frequency transformer (MFT) leakage inductance, as one of the key design factors governing the operation of galvanically isolated power electronics converters. Precise leakage inductance modeling in design stage is especially important for converter topologies based on resonant conversion where...

The principle of the proposed converter, analysis of operation (including the effects of parasitic parameters), and design guideline are included. SCIBFC achieves soft-switching...
Model predictive direct power control (MPDPC) has been widely concerned in the control of doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) systems owing to its simple concept and good multivariate control ability. The optimal voltage vector is selected based on the principle of power error minimization. Nevertheless, the conventional MPDPC still presents relatively high power ripples and the switching frequency...
This paper proposes a primary side control for series-series compensated wireless power transfer system. By eliminating the need for a communication link for signal feedback, the control method not only reduces volume and cost of the system, but also improves a dynamic response. This controller only requires the information of the primary side voltage and current to identify the load resistance and...
Interleaved three-phase voltage source converters have been a popular solution for high power applications. In addition to circulating current, the impact of PWM strategies on the DC link current ripple is an important issue for practical designs. Existing studies have evaluated the impact of conventional PWM strategies like SPWM. However, impact of the recently introduced carrier phase shift (CPS)...
This paper presents the analytical design procedure to select the inductance and the capacitance values of both the input and output filters for the 5-Level three-phase Back to Back E-Type Converter (5L3Φ BTB E-Type Converter). The 5L3Φ BTB E-Type Converter is used to accomplish the double conversion AC-DC/DC-AC in applications which include variable speed industrial electric drives and the interfacing...
There is an increasing need to model large networks of inverter-based distributed generation due to the limits of existing simulation tools. A deliberate enforcement of intra-feeder coherency between adjacent droop-controlled inverters is a worthwhile objective, as phase angle coherency will allow for a deliberate partitioning of fast and slow dynamics within the network. This partitioning, in turn,...
This paper proposed a novel multiplexing module based on LCL topology for dynamic wireless charging of electric vehicles. The LCL compensation network is widely used due to its insensitivity of output characteristics to load variation. But the design of an LCL topology requires a compensation inductor with the same value of a transmitter. The proposed multiplexing LCL module (MLM) can make the primary...

The proposed insertion index selection method uses the arithmetic mean of available...
This paper presents a simplified direct modulation prediction approach for modular multilevel converters (MMC). By using the Euler approximation, the grid-side and circulating currents are firstly predicted to obtain the values in the next switching cycle. Then the modulations are directly calculated based on the established mathematical models for the six-arms of MMC. Subsequently, the capacitor...
