Predictive Controller Design for a Three-Winding Inductive Power Transfer System

Inductive power transfer (IPT) systems have become more and more popular recently. To improve transient responses and load disturbance responses, this paper proposes a predictive controller design for a three-winding inductive power transfer (IPT) system. First, a three-winding IPT is presented. Next, a predictive controller is designed based on augmented variables and a performance index. Finally, a digital signal processor, TMS 320F2808, made by Texas Instrument, is used to execute the predictive control algorithms and to control the switching states of the power devices. An IPT system, with DC 220 V input, DC 130 V output, and a rated power of 2 kW, is implemented. A buck converter is used to provide an adjustable output voltage and output current to charge a battery set. Experimental results show that the proposed predictive controllers of the IPT system have better performance than proportional-integral (PI) controllers, including faster transient responses and better load disturbance responses.

Field Oriented Control-Based Reduction of the Vibration and Power Consumption of a Blood Pump

Power quality and energy efficiency are of great importance in motor control. The motor of any medical device needs to have a smooth torque and minimal vibration in order to maximise its energy efficiency and patient comfort. Furthermore, in rotary blood pumps, excessive energy wasted due to vibration is converted into uncontrolled movement of the mechanical parts and thus could reduce the life of the motor-pump. Besides mechanical or hydraulic origin, one of the causes of vibration in any pump is torque ripple resulting from motor phase commutation. In this paper, using relevant equipment, two extreme scenarios were examined for vibration and electrical efficiency comparison due to power quality in a blood pump: one trapezoidal control with a trapezoidal phase current output; the other a field oriented control (FOC) with a non-distorted sinusoidal phase current. The test motor-pump was the Arteriovenous Fistula Eligibility (AFE) System that is used prior to haemodialysis. The trapezoidal technique was implemented utilising the Allegro a4941 fan driver (Allegro Microsystem, 2012), and the FOC technique was implemented using the Texas Instrument digital signal processor (TMS320F28335). The aim was to reduce the energy wasted over vibration, and to achieve smooth operation of the AFE System. Vibration was measured with a one-axis accelerometer; results showed considerably lower vibration due to less current ripple associated with the FOC control as well as lower power consumption.

Fault Protection Enabled Gate Drive Circuit for 3-Phase Inverter

Asynchronous motors used in applications like electric vehicles require protection against all possible fault conditions like short circuit, over voltage, over current etc., for their reliable operation. 3-phase inverter is used as power modulator for induction motor. In this paper a novel fault protection scheme is implemented for inverter used in modulating voltage and frequency of power supply driving 3-phase Induction Motor. Function of gate drive circuits used in power electronics converters is to provide isolation for gate signals and shift the voltage level of gate pulses to the required level to enable turn on and turn off the switches as desired. Gate signals are generated using Texas instrument F28069M board. Level shifting is achieved by buffer ICs and fault protection is provided by enabling shut down pin in the DSP on occurrence of fault. Hardware results show that modulation index of gate signals is set to zero under fault conditions and ensure total safety of Inverter driver circuit and power circuit used in the Inverter.

Implementation of DSP based Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) by using Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation Technique

This paper deals with theoretical and practical outlook related to implementation of a Digital signal processor (DSP) based on Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation (SPWM). For single phase inverter, sine wave is taken as reference signal and saw tooth is taken as carrier signal. It is developed by TMS320F28027 piccolo TM microcontroller with the help of simulink model. TI Texas instrument TMS320 is a blanket name for a series of DSP from Texas instrument. Through the TMS32010 processor which was faster in the DSP market and we use C2000 series microcontroller family with performance integrated peripherals designed for real – time control applications like motor drive control, industrial automation, solar and other renewable energy sources. The voltage source inverter is used in motor speed control and in solar, wind power grids. The system is verified by experimenting in simulation.

DSP Implementation of a Neural Network Vector Controller for IPM Motor Drives

This paper develops a neural network (NN) vector controller for an interior mounted permanent magnet (IPM) motor by using a Texas Instrument TMS320F28335 digital signal processor (DSP). The NN controller is developed based on the complete state-space equation of an IPM motor and it is trained to achieve optimal control according to approximate dynamic programming (ADP). A DSP-based NN control system is built for an IPM motor drives system, and a high efficient DSP program is developed to implement the NN control algorithm while considering the limited memory and computing capability of the TMS320F28335 DSP. The DSP-based NN controller is able to manage IPM motor control in linear, over, and six-step modulation regions to improve the efficiency of IPM drives and to allow for the full utilization of DC bus voltage with space-vector pulse-width modulation (SVPWM). The experiment results show that the proposed NN controller is able to operate with a sampling period of 0.1ms, even with limited DSP resources of up to 150 MHz cycle time, which is applicable in practical motor industrial implementations. The NN controller has demonstrated a better current and speed tracking performance than the conventional standard vector controller for IPM operation in both the linear and over-modulation regions.

Supervisory Control for Wireless Networked Power Converters in Residential Applications

This paper presents a methodology to design and utilize a supervisory controller for networked power converters in residential applications. Wireless networks have been interfaced to multiple power factor correction (PFC) converters which are proposed to support reactive power. Unregulated reactive power support from PFC converters could cause reactive power deficiency and instability. Therefore, a supervisory controller is necessary to govern the operation of PFC converters. WiFi and WirelessHART networks have been used to implement the supervisory controller. Different nodes of the power network are connected by wireless communication links to the supervisory controller. Asynchronous communication links latency and uncertain states affect the control and response of the PFC converters. To overcome these issues, the supervisory controller design method has been proposed based on the system identification and the Ziegler-Nichols rule. The proposed supervisory controller has been validated by using a hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) test bed. The HIL testbed consisted of an OP4510 simulator, a server computer, Texas Instrument-Digital Signal Controllers (TI-DSCs), WiFi and WirelessHART modules. Experimental results show that the proposed supervisory controller can help to support and govern reactive power flow in a residential power network. The proposed method of controller design will be useful for different small-scale power and wireless network integration.

New Watermarking/Encryption Method for Medical Imaging FULL Protection in m-Health

In this paper, we present a new method for medical images security dedicated to m-Health based on a combination between a novel semi reversible watermarking approach robust to JPEG compression, a new proposed fragile watermarking and a new proposed encryption algorithm. The purpose of the combination of these three proposed algorithms (encryption, robust and fragile watermarking) is to ensure the full protection of medical image, its information and its report in terms of confidentiality and reliability (authentication and integrity). A hardware implementation to evaluate our system is done using the Texas instrument C6416 DSK card by converting m-files to C/C++ using MATLAB coder. Our m-health security system is then run on the android platform. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve high security with good performance.

Hardware-in-the-loop testing of bypass valve actuation system: Design and validation of a simplified real time model

During the start-up and shut-down phases of steam power plants many components are subjected to pressure and temperature transients that have to be carefully regulated both for safety and reliability reasons. For this reason, there is a growing interest in the optimization of turbine bypass controllers and actuators which are mainly used to regulate the plant during this kind of operations. In this work, a numerically efficient model for real-time simulation of a steam plant is presented. In particular, a modular Simulink™ library of components such as valves, turbines, and heaters has been developed. In this way, it is possible to easily assemble and customize models able to simulate different plants and operating scenarios. The code, which is implemented for a fixed, discrete step solver, can be easily compiled for a RT target (such as a Texas Instrument DSP) in order to be executed in real time on a low-cost industrial hardware. The proposed model has been used for quite innovative applications such as the development of a hardware-in-the-loop test rig of turbine bypass controllers and valve positioners. Preliminary experimental activities and results of the proposed test rig developed for Velan ABV are introduced and discussed.
