Abstract
Operation condition monitoring of power electronics systems can improve analysis visibility for device administrators and researchers. However, the current sensor-based monitoring methods have limitations in accurately monitoring variables at multi-timescales. This article presents a real-time digital mapped (RTDM) method for the sensorless multi-timescale operation condition monitoring in power electronics systems using FPGA simulators. The mathematic models of power converters are deployed in the simulator considering multi-timescale characteristics. Both the digital simulator and the physical power converter are controlled by the same control signals, allowing the simulator to map the accurate operation conditions of the power converters without additional physical sensors. The RTDM method can monitor variables on the switching period timescale to the system transient timescale due to the consideration for the ideal switch modeling of the semiconductor switch. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated using a 30kW DAB converter as an example, through the integration of an experimental prototype and a simulator to create an RTDM platform. This method offers an easy and sensorless way to monitor multi-timescale variables in power electronics systems, providing a more comprehensive and visual analysis of their operation.
