This paper discusses the control of the compensation voltages in dynamic voltage restorers (DVR). On analyzing the power circuit of a DVR system, control limitations and control targets are presented for the compensation voltage control. Based on the preceded power stage analysis, a novel controller for the compensation voltages in DVRs is proposed by a feedforward control scheme. This paper also discusses the time delay problems in the control system of DVRs. Digital control systems inevitably have control delay due to its the sampling of signal, the switching frequency of an inverter, and the signal delay due to sensor itself. The total signal delay is considerable in real implementation and it endanger the system stability. This paper analyzes the relationship among the control delay, closed loop damping factor, and the output filter parameters of DVR inverters. Based on the control system analysis, a guideline is proposed to design the appropriate output filter parameters and the inverter switching frequency for DVRs. The proposed theory is verified by an experimental DVR system, which is controlled in full digital manner.

This paper discusses how to calculate the compensation voltages in dynamic voltage restorers (DVR) by use of PQR power theory. Directly sensed three-phase voltages are transformed to p-q-r coordinates without time delay, then the reference voltages in p-q-r coordinates have very simple form: dc values. The controller in p-q-r coordinates is very simple and clear, has better steady state and dynamic performance than conventional controllers. The controlled variables in p-q-r coordinates are then inversely transformed to the original a-b-c coordinates instantaneously, generating reference compensation voltages to a DVR. The control algorithm can be used for various kinds of series compensators such as dynamic voltage restorers (DVR), series active filters (SAP), synchronous static series compensators (SSSC), and bootstrap variable inductances (BVI). The control algorithm was applied to an experimental DVR system. The experimental results verified the performance of the proposed control algorithm.

This paper discusses the safety assurance, capability features, and user-friendliness of Internet-based telerobotics, in the sense that how these features could be incorporated in order to enhance teleoperator performance. A comprehensive set of safety features are incorporated to the interface to screen and accept only the safe commands from the remote operator while discarding risky commands. A laser pointer is used to help remote operator in perceiving self-location and navigation, whereas orientation control has been completely automated and synchronized to the position commands of the teleoperator. The effectiveness of these features has been demonstrated by playing telerobotic mini-golf.

A four-leg pulse width modulation (PWM) voltage source converter (VSC) is used to supply three phase balanced voltage even under an unbalanced load condition in three phase four wire power distribution network. A novel carrier-based modulation technique for the converter is described with the concept of an offset voltage and also is extended to so called 'discontinuous PWM (DPWM)' to minimize switching losses of VSC. As a practical application example of the four-leg VSC, a line interactive uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system is chosen. The feasibility of the proposed PWM strategies and control algorithms has been verified by the simulation and experimental results.

Effective training is essential for human teleoperators to deliver satisfactory performance in actual tasks. Teleoperation is naturally a very difficult task due to the absence of naked-eye vision that cripples the cognitive behavior of the remote operator. Camera vision somehow is not a satisfactory substitution. However, training with naked-eye vision feedback may help human teleoperators to learn how to deliver satisfactory performance when they actually interact with camera vision. This study was carried out to further investigate this hypothesis, and to quantitatively supplement it with experimental proofs. For this cause, the recently built telerobotic test-bed between KAIST (Korea) and Saga University(Japan) was reshaped to a telerobotic mini-golf system, which is the trial experiment in this study. The performance of the players with and without naked-eye training was compared and quantitatively evaluated. The effectiveness of training with naked-eye vision was verified as an essential part in training human teleoperators.

This work presents a new control method for the high frequency electronic ballast, which is operated with half bridge resonant inverter converting raw rectified DC to AC. For the commercial electronic ballast, proper AC input power factor and crest factor of the lamp current are required. The most ballast, therefore, has an active or passive power factor correction (PFC) circuit. With the proposed method, it can be achieved simultaneously that greater than 0.91 of input power factor and less than 1.8 of lamp current crest factor without any PFC circuit. In this paper, the proposed ballast control scheme is described and in order to verify the validity of proposed scheme, the experimental results for the application to the fluorescent lamp are discussed.

In this paper, we will introduce concerning a control strategy that is the multi-step prediction control of linear motor-based container transport system for high precision using dynamically-constructed recurrent fuzzy neural networks (DR-FNNs). Linear motor-based container transport system (LMCTS) is horizontal transfer system for the yard automation, which has been proposed to take the place of automated guided vehicle in the maritime container terminal. LMCTS is considered as that the system is changed its model suddenly and variously by loading and unloading container. The proposed control system is used two DR-FNNs for multi-step prediction. Consequently, the system has an ability to adapt for a huge rolling friction, cogging force, force ripple, and sudden changes of itself by loading and unloading.
