To this end, a current vector decoupling control algorithm for six-phase permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) is designed. Using the proposed synchronous rotating coordinate transformation matrix, the fundamental and harmonic components in d-q subspace are changed into direct current (DC) component, only using the traditional proportional integral (PI) controller can meet the non-static difference adjustment, and the controller parameter design method is given by employing intemal model principle. In addition, in order to remove the 5th and 7th harmonic components of stator current, the current PI controller parallel with resonant controller is employed in x-y subspace to realize the specific harmonic component compensation. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of current decoupling vector controller.展开更多

The Support Vector Machine (SVM) method is used to solve the inverse problem of parameters extraction. The mapping relationship is set up by calculating a large number of S pa-rameters from the samples with different permittivity by using transmission line theory. The simulated data set is used as training data set for SVM. After the training, the SVM is used to predict the permittivity of material from the scattering coefficients.展开更多

In the process of fabrication, UV-LIGA, dry. etching technique, fine polishing and eleetroplating techniques have been adopted to achieve high performance mieminduetor. Experimental results show that both types of the induetors are characterized by high inductance, Q-factor and low electrical resistance. While the inductance of the inductor with rectangular magnetic core is slightly higher than that with elliptical magnetic core, the quality factor of the latter is larger than that of the former.展开更多

Before training a classification parameter for the SVM, several preprocessing operations were applied to the data including filtering, downsampling, single trial extraction, windsorizing, electrode selection et al. With the SVM algorithm, the classification accuracy could be up to above 80%. In some cases, the accuracy could reach 100%. It is suitable to use SVM for P300 EEG recognition in the P300-based brain-computer interface (BCI) system. Our further work will include the improvement to yield higher classification accuracy using fewer trials.展开更多

The problem analyzed in paper concerns thyristor controlled direct current motor used for ski-lift in ski resort as a source of disturbances with negative impact on sensitive electric equipment, which is then unable to operate correctly. To solve mentioned problems, series of measurements of voltage quality parameters were carried out according to the respective valid standards. Crucial power quality parameters necessary for parallel power active filter design were then analyzed. Power active filter compensates power factor and filters characteristic current harmonics. After power active filter was put into operation, power quality problems were eliminated. Payback period is estimated up to four years.展开更多
