Efficiency Optimization and Resilience Improvement in Wireless Motor System With Flexible DC-Link Voltage Regulation

This paper proposes a novel dc-link voltage regulation (DCVR) strategy for the series-series compensated wireless motor (SSWM) system. The steady-state voltage control is presented to optimize the system efficiency and the feedforward voltage boost control is proposed to improve system resilience. The rated capacity identification (RCI) scheme is proposed to design proper parameters for the SSWM system. To achieve steady-state voltage control, the system efficiency characteristic is analyzed in detail and the efficiency optimization can be achieved without an auxiliary dc-dc converter. The influence of impedance matching, the power capacity of the system, and overmodulation of the motor drive are all investigated. Then, the dynamic model of the system is established to analyze the stability of dc-link voltage. In the proposed feedforward voltage boost control, the dc-link voltage is boosted according to the motor operation state to increase the instantaneous power capacity. The dc-link voltage stability is improved and the system resilience is enhanced against power disturbance. Besides, at the end of the acceleration process, the dc-link voltage is smoothly adjusted to the optimal dc-link voltage. The effectiveness of the proposed RCI scheme and DCVR strategy is verified by experiments on a three-phase wireless permanent magnet synchronous motor platform.
