A traditional AC power supply (PS) system consists of a DC/DC converter, a cascaded H-bridge inverter, and a passive filter to generate the sinusoidal output voltage. The presented DC/RAC/AC inverter has a similar structure; however, the control of the cascaded units differ. The presented method generates rectified sine wave at the output of the DC/DC converter unit and the H-bridge inverter alternates the rectified sine wave to generate the full sine wave without having an additional output filter; hence, the switching losses at the H-bridge inverter is limited to the line frequency (50-60 Hz). Moreover, the bulk DC bus capacity at the output of the DC/DC converter is reduced significantly. Therefore, the power consumed by the passive elements are minimized. The circuit modes of operation are analyzed and the system is simulated in Matlab/Simulink environment for both traditional and proposed topologies. Results show that the proposed system is superior to the traditional one in terms of efficiency, generated THD with a simplified control structure, and it offers a reduced system size and cost. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3A Modular Three-Phase Buck-Boost Motor Drive Topology(IEEE, 2020-10-05) Tekgun, Didem; Tekgun, Burak; Alan, IrfanThe voltage-source inverter (VSI) is a fundamental power electronic device to drive three-phase electrical machines with high performance. In this paper, a modular three-phase DC/Rectified AC/AC (DC/RAC/AC) inverter supplying a permanent-magnet synchronous machine (PMSM) is proposed. In this topology, the three-phase VSI is composed of three single-phase modules connected in parallel. Each single-phase inverter module consists of a non-inverting bidirectional buck-boost DC/DC converter and a cascaded H-bridge inverter. Here, the DC/DC converter generates rectified AC waveforms and the H-bridge inverter alternates these signals to create the intended AC voltage waveform. Therefore, the bulk DC Bus capacitor and boost converter inductor, which exist in a typical battery-powered voltage boosting topology can be eliminated which results in a smaller size and reduced cost. In addition, the switching losses only occur in the DC/DC converter unit and the H-bridge inverter switching losses are negligible due to the zero-voltage switching while in a conventional structure, high-frequency switching occurs both in the DC/DC converter and the six-switch inverter causing reduced overall system efficiency. The proposed inverter is controlled with a well-known field-oriented control (FOC). This paper presents the operating principle, design, and control structure of the proposed three-phase inverter. The functionality of the three-phase inverter is verified through PowerSim simulations. The proposed motor drive system is compared to the conventional one while driving a 4 kW PMSM with FOC and the whole system efficiency difference map is generated. The biggest difference is recorded as 3.8 points favoring the proposed system.
