In recent years, economic and environmental considerations have led the industry towards energy efficient technologies. As a result, in the context of industrial motor drives, Brushless DC (BLDC) and Permanent Magnet Synchronous (PMS) motors have become popular as energy efficient and reliable alternatives for induction motors. Both BLDC and permanent magnet synchronous motors are electronically commutated based on the position of the rotor by using voltage source inverters that consist of a rectifier, a DC link capacitor and an inverter. In comparison to the other electronic components in the circuit, the DC link capacitor has a limited lifetime, which is severely dependent on the ambient operating temperature. However, with advancements in technology, direct power converters such as matrix converters that do not employ DC link capacitors are becoming popular in industry. At present, matrix converters and similar style direct converters are economically feasible in high power applications and are expected to be economically feasible for low power ratings in the future.

“…The increasing interest today is to find compact and inexpensive variable speed drives. There are several different approaches to improve the input power factor and the input current harmonics of the VSD systems [8][9]. These approaches employ a frontend converter for PFC and an inverter for the three-phase induction motor (IM), or a converter for permanent magnet brushless dc motor (PMBDC) and switched reluctance motor (SRM).…”

This paper presents the study of a three phase PWM inverter-fed induction motor drive with single phase utility input, with and without a power factor correction circuit (PFC). The PFC circuit is controlled with the proposed predictive current control. The effects of the PFC circuit on the magnitude of the input current, harmonic contents and input power factor of the A.C drive system are studied. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is used to get the frequency spectrum of the current waveforms. A comparative study of simulation and experimental results for the A.C. drive system, with and without PFC circuit, is carried out. The experimental implementation of PFC control of the boost converter controlled three-phase IM drive system, with FOC principles in real time, using DSP controller board DS1104 is achieved using the proposed predictive control. The proposed PFC control method used to achieve a low input line current harmonics, for obtaining a good power quality with a fast dynamic response for output voltage and line current.

“…The idea of using a typology of buck-boost converter, namely a Cuk converter, ideal for household appliances, energized with a fixed AC voltage is presented in [14], taking into consideration mainly the economical aspects. Further, the cost is reduced by using SCRs in the inverter instead of IGBTs.…”

“…Further, the cost is reduced by using SCRs in the inverter instead of IGBTs. However, the control strategy presented in [14] requires speed information from the motor, thus the usage of an encoder is inevitable.…”

This paper presents an improved topology of BLDC motor drive with a DC-DC Converter in the DC link and a combined Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique. The goal is to separate the speed control and inverter commutation, in order to reduce switching losses and the inverter size and cost. Digital simulations of the proposed drive are performed with position sensors and with sensorless strategy and a comparison with the typical 3-phase inverter is realized.I. 978-1-4244-7020-4/10/$26.00 '2010 IEEE
