   Effects of nonidealities in switching frequency modulation techniques: application to Coupled Interleaved Multicellular Parallel converters.
By Juan MON, David GONZALEZ, Lluis FERRER, Denis LABROUSSE, Francois COSTA [View]
[Download]

Abstract: This paper explores the application of the Variable Delay Frequency Modulation (VDFM) to an Interleaved Multicellular Parallel converter. VDFM is a modulation technique specially intended to reduce conducted EMI generated by parallel converters. This technique combines interleaving and frequency modulation in such a way that provides the best attenuation. On the other hand, Coupled Interleaved Multicelular Parallel Converters (CIMPC) needs a perfect current sharing among phases. In this paper we consider the effect of VDFM nonidealities on the EMI attenuation in order to consider the application of this technique to CIMPC.

   High frequency EMC impact of switching to improve DC-DC converter performances
By Guillaume AULAGNIER, Marc COUSINEAU, Kamel ABOUDA, Eric ROLLAND, Thierry MEYNARD [View]
[Download]

Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the high frequency disturbances from switching operation in a SoC (System on Chip) Buck converter for EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) performance improvement. The impact of key design parameters is handled with an analytic approach, allowing Conducted Emission (CE) spectrum prediction.

   Novel EV drive train topology - a review of the current topologies and proposal for a model for improved drivability
By Dirk KOK, Adrian MORRIS, Michael KNOWLES [View]
[Download]

Abstract: The use of Direct Current to Direct Current (DC-DC) converters in Electric Vehicles (EV) drive trains allows for optimal combination of a power source complementing an energy source. Various topologies have been analysed and compared for their best features. A set of parameters has been created, based on which a new topology has been developed. The new topology is modular and allows for redundancy while improving driveability and has the potential to reduce cost of the drive train, by increasing the life expectancy of the energy sources.
