    A universal PSpice model for HID lamps

    , Conference Record - IAS Annual Meeting (IEEE Industry Applications Society), Vol: 2, Pages: 1475-1482, ISSN: 0197-2618

    Based on the physical laws of plasma discharge, a simplified but accurate model that can easily be implemented in PSpice is presented. This model does not require data from lamp manufacturers. Its parameters can be determined from external measurements of the lamps under operation. The HID lamp model has been tested in a 50W mercury HID lamp and compared with measurements. Experimental results have confirmed that the model is accurate for both low and high frequency operation.

    A unifying integral ISS framework for stability of nonlinear cascades

    , SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, Vol: 40, Pages: 1888-1904, ISSN: 0363-0129

    We analyze nonlinear cascades in which the driven subsystem is integral input-to-state stable (ISS), and we characterize the admissible integral ISS gains for stability. This characterization makes use of the convergence speed of the driving subsystem and allows a larger class of gain functions when the convergence is faster. We show that our integral ISS gain characterization unifies different approaches in the literature which restrict the nonlinear growth of the driven subsystem and the convergence speed of the driving subsystem. The result is used to develop a new observer-based backstepping design in which the growth of the nonlinear damping terms is reduced.

    Evaluation of the shielding effects on printed-circuit-board transformers using ferrite plates and copper sheets

    , IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, Vol: 17, Pages: 1080-1088, ISSN: 0885-8993

    This paper presents an effective shielding technique and a simple structure for printed-circuit-board (PCB) transformers. Performance of PCB transformers using the proposed shielding technique is evaluated using thin ferrite plates and copper sheets. Without affecting the transformer energy efficiency, the shielding method under investigation can achieve 28 dB shielding effectiveness (SE), which is much higher than the SE (about 4 dB) obtained by shielding the transformer windings with only two ferrite plates. The proposed PCB transformer structure is very simple and has high energy efficiency (>90%) for Megahertz operation.

    A novel maximum power point tracker for PV panels using switching frequency modulation

    , IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, Vol: 17, Pages: 980-989, ISSN: 0885-8993

    A novel technique for efficiently extracting maximum power from photovoltaic (PV) panels is presented. The power conversion stage, which is connected between a PV panel and a load or bus, is a SEPIC or Cuk converter or their derived circuits operating in discontinuous inductor-current or capacitor-voltage mode. Method of locating the maximum power point (MPP) is based on injecting a small-signal sinusoidal perturbation into the switching frequency and comparing the ac component and the average value of the panel terminal voltage. Apart from not requiring any sophisticated digital computation of the panel power, the proposed technique does not approximate the panel characteristics and can globally locate the MPP under wide insolation conditions. The tracking capability has been verified experimentally with a 10 W solar panel under a controlled experimental setup. Performances under the steady state and in the large-signal change of the insolation level will be given.

    Robust damping of interarea oscillations with unified power-flow controller

    , IEE P-GENER TRANSM D, Vol: 149, Pages: 733-738, ISSN: 1350-2360

    An H-infinity-mixed-sensitivity design of a damping device employing a unified-power-flow controller (UPFC) is presented. The problem is posed in the linear-matrix-inequality (LMI) framework. The controller design is aimed at providing adequate damping to interarea oscillations over a range of operating conditions. The results obtained in a two-area four-machine test system are seen to be very satisfactory both in the frequency domain and through nonlinear simulations.

    Robust pole placement versus root-locus approach in the context of damping interarea oscillations in power systems

    , IEE P-GENER TRANSM D, Vol: 149, Pages: 739-745, ISSN: 1350-2360

    The merits of a robust low-order pole-placement method of damping-control design over a conventional root-locus method are discussed: both being aimed at providing adequate damping against interarea oscillations. The design is based on a weighted and normalised eigenvalue-distance-minimisation method (WNEDM) to obtain damping controllers employing Superconducting magnetic-energy-storage (SMES) devices in a study system. The WNEDM-based control guarantees adequate damping in the prefault and postfault cases. The damping performance of the controllers is compared with that obtained by the root-locus technique. The results show that the WNEDM-based control is preferred over root-locus-based control when the control efforts in each the same.

    Single current sensor control for single-phase active power factor correction

    , IEEE Transactions on Power Electronics, Vol: 17, Pages: 623-632, ISSN: 0885-8993

    This paper presents the realization of a boost-type active power factor corrector (APFC) using a single current sensor to sense the inductor current for input current shaping and output voltage regulation. Neither input voltage nor output voltage sensing is needed. The sensed inductor current is used for two main functions. The first one is for comparing with a sawtooth signal in order to shape the input current waveform. The second one is for determining the input and output voltages by processing the rate of change of the inductor current when the main switch is in on and off states, respectively. Compared with conventional APFCs, the proposed technique has several advantages. First, no dissipative voltage divider is required. Second, electrical isolation between the power conversion stage and the control stage can be achieved inherently. Finally, no complicated or sophisticated digital sampling and numerical computations are needed. The applicability and accuracy of the proposed technique have been studied experimentally. Steady-state behavior and large-signal response under output load disturbance are also investigated.

    Lyapunov-based switching supervisory control of nonlinear uncertain systems

    , IEEE Transactions on Automatic Control, Vol: 47, Pages: 500-505, ISSN: 0018-9286

    Switching supervisory control (SSC) algorithms was developed for nonlinear plants with uncertain parameters and subjected to unaccessible persistent disturbances of known maximum size. The algorithm provided that full state feedback was available and can be tailored for linear plant dynamics. A simulative example was presented which showed that the algorithm was capable to cope with slowly time-varying and piecewise constant parameters.
