IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON POWER ELECTRONICS, VOL. 21, NO. 4, JULY 2006 1073 A Novel CSI-Fed Induction Motor Drive Abdul Rahiman Beig, Member, IEEE, and V. T. Ranganathan, Senior Member, IEEE Abstract— Current source inverter (CSI) fed drives are em- ployed in high power applications. The conventional CSI drives suffer from drawbacks such as harmonic resonance, unstable operation at low speed ranges, and torque pulsation. This paper presents a novel CSI drive which overcomes all these drawbacks and results in sinusoidal motor voltage and current even with CSI switching at fundamental frequency. The proposed CSI drive uses a three-level inverter as an active filter across motor terminals replacing the bulky ac capacitors used in the conventional drive. A sensorless vector controlled CSI drive based on proposed con- Fig. 1. Functional block diagram of conventional CSI fed drive. figuration is developed. The simulation and experimental results are presented. Experimental results show that the proposed drive has stable operation even at low speeds. Comparative results show though a relatively high switching frequency PWM will result that the proposed CSI drive has improved torque ripple compared to the conventional configuration. in near sinusoidal output voltages and currents, at higher power levels, the CSI is switched at low frequency, ( 200 Hz), Index Terms—Active filters, current control, current source in- to reduce switching losses.
