A selection principle of submodule switching state vectors for switching frequency reduction in voltage self‐balancing half‐bridge modular multilevel converters
Yiyuan Zhou, Liang Qin, Shiqi Yang, Qing Wang, Kaipei Liu

Pages: 25-37 | First Published: 12 November 2023

Description unavailable

In this work, the authors propose a selection principle of submodule switching state vectors based on the voltage self-balancing switching state matrix with lowered submodule switching frequency and device losses. The evaluation indexes of the voltage self-balancing control effect are determined, and the optimized construction method of switching state matrix is presented. The selection principle proposed can effectively reduce switching frequency while meeting the evaluation requirements of practical engineering projects, so as to achieve the balance between switching loss and steady-state capacitor voltage fluctuation.

High voltage gain switched z‐source inverter with low current stress
Golaleh Zarei, Ebrahim Babaei, Mohammad Bagher Bannae Sharifian, Hadi Aghaei, Elias Shokati Asl

Pages: 38-53 | First Published: 27 November 2023

Description unavailable

This paper proposes a switched Z-source inverter with high voltage gain and low current stress on elements. Also, a new switching method corresponding to the proposed topology is introduced. This method is based on the usual Maximum Constant Boost (MCB) method. Eliminating part of the inverter's switching in this modulation method improves the inverter's efficiency. In addition to the Shoot-Through (ST) duty cycle, another variable (N) affects the inverter's boost factor in this switching method. The proposed inverter's dynamic analysis shows that introducing N in the modulation method improved the dynamic characteristic of the inverter. For the proposed topology, steady-state analysis, dynamic analysis, elements design and efficiency calculation are performed.

Fault diagnosis for multiple current sensors in grid‐connected inverter based on average modulation voltage
Fan Zhang, Zhiwei Zhang, Guangfeng Jin, Tianzhen Wang, Jingang Han, Hubert Razik, Yide Wang

Pages: 54-66 | First Published: 05 December 2023

Description unavailable

Based on the influence of current sensor offset fault in the system, the average modulation voltage value model is established in three-phase stationary coordinates.The difference between the measured value of the current and the actual value is estimated through the model when the offset fault occurs. Experimental results show that this method can accurately locate the fault and perform fault tolerant control when there are offset faults in multiple sensors simultaneously.

Lv Yuan, Wang Lei, Zhang Kai, Tian Wei, Yu Jiawen, Gao Bing

Pages: 67-77 | First Published: 22 November 2023

In this paper, an open-circuit fault-tolerant topology of LC-coupling hybrid active power filter (LC-HAPF) and its control strategy are proposed at the switch level, which can greatly improve the reliability of the system. The proposed structure has a contactor between the midpoint of each bridge arm and the negative bus of the dc-link capacitor.

A sliding mode‐based single‐loop control strategy for permanent magnet synchronous motor drives
Thanh-Lam Le, Min-Fu Hsieh

Pages: 78-91 | First Published: 21 November 2023

Description unavailable

A simple control structure with high anti-disturbance ability based on EARL+DOBS is proposed for permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drives. The speed and current loop (q-axis) are merged into one single-loop controller. An enhanced adaptive reaching law (EARL) is proposed for the single-loop controller, and an improved disturbance observer (DOBS) is developed to enhance the anti-disturbance ability of the PMSM drive.

Dezhi Chen, Shichong Zhang, Baodong Bai, Zhixiang Zhang, Zhaoning Yang

Pages: 92-106 | First Published: 27 November 2023

Description unavailable

In order to reduce the number of discrete transformers and increase the power density as well as the reliability of the power converter, a three-port isolated DC/DC converter with a decoupling magnetic integrated high-frequency transformer (DMIHFT) is proposed for the DC microgrid in this paper. Three discrete transformers are integrated into a single common core, and magnetic decoupling is achieved among each transformer by rational design at the same time.

Quasi‐Z‐source inverter with switched‐coupled‐capacitors
Mohammad Hosein Babaei, Asghar Taheri, Jamal Abbasi Bolaghi, Masoumeh Gholami

Pages: 134-143 | First Published: 09 December 2023

Description unavailable

This paper presents an improved switched-inductor quasi Z-source inverter that has a higher boost factor compared to similar inverters, which integrates a switched-capacitor and a three-winding switched-coupled inductor into a conventional qZSI. The proposed inverter is called a switched-capacitor trans quasi Z-source inverter (SCT-QZSI). In this topology, the input current is continuous, and a high voltage gain is reachable with low duty cycles. In this structure, capacitors are used instead of the side diodes of the switched-inductor quasi Z-source inverter. The proposed converter has a low inrush current at the startup which might damage the converter components. The performance of the proposed inverter is investigated at different operating modes and the voltage and current equations of all elements are calculated. The analysis, derivation of boost factor, capacitor voltages, and components, of the proposed inverter, are carried out and are compared with similar inverters. Finally, to validate its advantages, analytical, simulation, and experimental results are also presented.
