Control of Indirect Matrix Converter by Using Improved SVM Method

10.11591/ijpeds.v6.i2.pp370-375
Lavanya Nannapaneni , Venu Gopala Rao
A novel space vector modulation (SVM) method for an indirect matrix converter (IMC) is used to reduce the common -mode voltage (CMV) in the output. The process of selecting required active vectors and to describe the switching sequence in the inverter stage of the IMC is explained in this paper. This novel SVM method used to decrease the peak -to-peak amplitude voltage of CMV without using any external hardware. The other advantage of this SVM method is to reduce the total harmonic distortion of line-to-line output voltage. This new modulation technique is easily implemented through simulation and its results are used to demonstrate the improved performance of the input/output waveforms.

Mekala N , Muniraj C , Ramesh Balaji S.M.
The Switched Reluctance Motor (SRM) is getting large attention for industry application due to their simple construction, high starting capabilities, high reliability, and high efficiency and also rotor carries no windings, no slip-rings there is no brushes, it requires less maintenance. In spite of the merits, it had some demerits like acoustic noise and vibration is one of major issues in SRM. The DSP-TMS320F28335 processor were implemented due to their high performance for the control applications.In this work the Random Pulse Width Modulation (RPWM) technique is used to reduce the acoustic noise and vibration by varying random turn on and turn off angle control.The acoustic noise and vibration signals are measured using accelerometer and sound level meter in 1HP, 8/6poles of SRM drive. The experimental analysis of vibration signals are measured using Lab VIEW at different speeds and load conditions. The acoustic noise signals are measured using Sound level meter .Both the Acoustic and vibrations are analyzed experimentally for different speeds and load conditions. The experimental results show that the noise and vibration analysis and also compare the sinusoidal PWM is better than Random PWM techniques. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11591/telkomnika.v14i3.7965

Variable frequency drives are used to provide reliable dynamic systems and significant reduction in usage of energy and costs of the induction motors. Modeling and control of faulty or an unbalanced three-phase induction motor is obviously different from healthy three-phase induction motor. Using conventional vector control techniques such as Field-Oriented Control (FOC) for faulty three-phase induction motor, results in a significant torque and speed oscillation. This research presented a novel method for vector control of three-phase induction motor under fault condition (two-phase open circuit fault). The proposed method for vector control of faulty machine is based on rotor FOC method. A comparison between conventional and modified controller shows that the modified controller has been significantly reduced the torque and speed oscillations.

10.11591/ijece.v5i3.pp477-482
Prativa Satpathy , Kalyan Das , Jagamohan Padhi
This paper deals with multiprocessor scheduling with rejection technique where each job is provided with processing time and a given penalty cost. If the job satisfies the acceptance condition, it will schedule in the least loaded identical parallel machine else job is rejected. In this way its penalty cost is calculated. Our objective is to minimize the makespan of the scheduled job and to minimize the sum of the penalties of rejected jobs. We have merged ‘CHOOSE ‘and ‘REJECTION PENALTY’ algorithm to reduce the sum of penalties cost and makespan. Our proposed ‘Improved Reject penalty algorithm’ reduce competitive ratio, which in turn enhances the efficiency of the on-line algorithm. By applying our new on-line technique, we got the lower bound of our algorithm is is 1.286 which is far better from the existing algorithms whose competitive ratio is at 1.819. In our approach we have consider non-preemption scheduling technique.

A Modified Bridgeless Converter for SRM Drive with Reduced Ripple Current

10.11591/ijpeds.v6.i2.pp362-369
Maheswari C krishnakumar , Rani Thottungal , Divya A.C
Single Phase Switched Reluctance Motor is more popular in many industrial purposes for high speed applications because of its robust and rugged construction. For low cost and variable speed drive applications SRM are widely used.Due to doubly salient structure of motor, the torque pulsations are high when compared to other sinusoidal machines. The major drawback in using SRM drive is torque pulsations and increased number of switching components. In order to overcome these drawbacks, a bridgeless Single Ended Primary Inductor Converter (SEPIC) is proposed. The major advantages of this converter are continuous output current,smaller voltage ripple and reduced semiconductor current stress when compared to the conventional SEPIC converter. The ripple free input current is obtained by using additional winding of input inductor and auxiliary capacitors. To achieve high efficiency, active power factor correction circuits (PFC) are employed to precise the power factor. Further, the unity power factor can be obtained by making the input current during switching period proportional to the input voltage is proposed. The proposed system consists of reduced components and it is also capable of reducing the conduction losses. The working principles and the waveforms of proposed converter are analyzed. To analyze the circuit operation, theoretical analysis and simulation results are provided. Finally, the  comparison between the waveforms of conventional SEPIC and proposed system is presented by using MATLAB/Simulink tools.

Investigations on Capacitor Compensation Topologies Effects of Different Inductive Coupling Links Configurations

10.11591/ijpeds.v6.i2.pp274-281
Norezmi Jamal , Shakir Saat , Y. Yusmarnita , Thoriq Zaid , A. A. M. Isa
This paper presents investigations on capacitor compensation topologies with different inductive coupling links for loosely coupled inductive power transfer (IPT) system. In general, the main constraint of the loosely coupled IPT system is power losses due to the large leakage inductances. Therefore, to overcome the aforementioned problem, in this work, capacitor compensation is proposed to be used by adding an external capacitor to the system. By using this approach, the resonant inductive coupling can be achieved efficiently and hence the efficiency of the system is also increased significantly. This paper analyzes the performance of two different compensation topologies, which are primary series-secondary series (SS) and primary series- secondary parallel (SP) topology. The performance of such topologies is evaluated through the experimental results at 1MHz operating frequency for different types of inductive coupling. From the results, SS topology produces a high power transfer but SP topology gives better efficiency.

Fingerprint Authentication Schemes for Mobile Devices

10.11591/ijece.v5i3.pp579-585
Jinho Han
In certain applications, fingerprint authentication systems require templates to be stored in databases. The possible leakage of these fingerprint templates can lead to serious security and privacy threats. Therefore, with the frequent use of fingerprint authentication on mobile devices, it has become increasingly important to keep fingerprint data safe. Due to rapid developments in optical equipment, biometric systems are now able to gain the same biometric images repeatedly, so strong features can be selected with precision. Strong features refer to high-quality features which can be easily distinguished from other features in biometric raw images. In this paper, we introduce an algorithm that identifies these strong features with certain probability from a given fingerprint image. Once values are extracted from these features, they are used as the authentication data. Using the geometric information of these strong features, a cancelable fingerprint template can be produced, and the process of extracting values and geometric information is further explained. Because this is a light-weight authentication scheme, this template has practical usage for low performance mobile devices. Finally, we demonstrate that our proposed schemes are secure and that the user’s biometric raw data of the fingerprint are safe, even when the mobile device is lost or stolen.

A. Purna Chandra Rao , Y.P. Obulesh , Ch. Sai Babu
Earlier for variable speed application conventional motors were used, but these motors have poor characteristics. These drawbacks were overcome by brushless Dc motor drive. Now days in most of the applications such as industrial, domestic, aerospace, defense, medical and traction etc, brushless DC motor (BLDCM) is popular for its high efficiency, high torque to weight ratio, small size, and high reliability, ease of control and low maintenance etc. BLDC motor is a electronic commutator driven drive i.e. it uses a three-phase voltage source inverter for its operation, electronic devices means there is a problem of poor power quality, more torque ripple and speed fluctuations. This paper deals with the CUK converter two leg inverter fed BLDCM drive in closed loop operation. The proposed control strategy on CUK converter two leg inverter fed BLDCM drive with split DC source is modeled and implemented using MATLAB / Simulink. The proposed method improves the efficiency of the drive system with Power factor correction feature in wide range of the speed control, less torque ripple and smooth speed control.

Convergence Parameter Analysis for Different Metaheuristic Methods Control Constant Estimation and it’s Tradeoff Inference

10.11591/ijpeds.v6.i2.pp404-414
R. Sagayaraj , S. Thangavel
This paper is an extension of our previous work, which discussed the difficulty in implementing different methods of resistance emulation techniques on the hardware due to its control constant estimation delay. In order to get rid of the delay this paper attempts to include the meta-heuristic methods for the control constants of the controller. To achieve the minimum Total Harmonic Disturbance (THD) in the AC side of the converter modern meta-heuristic methods are compared with the traditional methods. The convergence parameters, which are primary for the earlier estimation of the control constants, are compared with the measured parameters, tabulated and tradeoff inference is done among the methods. This kind of implementation does not need the mathematical model of the system under study for finding the control constants. The parameters considered for estimation are population size, maximum number of epochs, and global best solution of the control constants, best THD value and execution time. MatlabTM /Simulink based simulation is optimized with the M-file based optimization techniques like Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Genetic Algorithm (GA), Cuckoo Search Algorithm, Gravity Search Algorithm, Harmony Search Algorithm and Bat Algorithm.

Artificial Ozone Generating system needs High Voltage, High Frequency supply. The Ozonator distorts the supply currents and henceforth affect the supply power factor. This paper presents the performance comparison of PWM inverter to Power Factor Corrected (PFC) converter with PWM inverter based High-voltage High-frequency power supply for ozone generator system. The conventional inverter has front end bridge rectifier with smoothing capacitor. It draws non-sinusoidal current from ac mains; as a result input supply has more harmonics and poor power factor. Hence, there is a continuous need for power factor improvement and reduction of line current harmonics.  The proposed system has active power factor correction converter which is used to achieve sinusoidal current and improve the supply power factor. The active PFC converter with PWM inverter fed ozone generator generates more ozone output compared to the conventional inverter. Thus the proposed system has less current harmonics and better input power factor compared to the conventional system.  The performance of the both inverters are compared and analyzed with the help of simulation results presented in this paper.

10.11591/ijpeds.v6.i2.pp242-252
Aiswarya T.M. , M. Prabhakar
This paper presents a high gain DC-DC converter which uses a clamp circuit to achieve soft switching. The proposed converter is designed to supply a high intensity discharge (HID) lamp used in automobile head lamps. The converter operates from a 12V input supply and provides an output voltage of 120V at 35W output power. A clamp circuit consisting of a clamp capacitor, clamp switch and resonant inductor will help to achieve zero voltage switching (ZVS) of the both main and clamp switches. The practical performance of the converter was validated through experimental results. Results obtained from the prototype hardware prove that the converter meets the requirements of HID lamp application and can be a very good alternative to existing converters.
