A. Circuit Configuration
Fig. 1(a) shows the main circuit configuration for the DSCC
discussed in this paper. Each leg consists of eight cascaded
bidirectional chopper-cells shown in Fig. 1(b), and a centertapped inductor per phase, as shown in Fig. 1(c). The center-tap
of each inductor, named c is connected directly to each of
the stator terminals of an induction motor, where i1u is the
u-phase stator current. iP u and iN u are the u-phase positive
and negative arm currents, respectively. iZu is the u-phase
circulating current, defined as follows [5]:
1
(iP u + iN u ).

iZu has dc- and ac-components to be used for dc-capacitor
voltage control. The dc component flows from the common
dc link to each leg, while the ac component flows among
the three legs. The individual ac components included in the
three circulating currents cancel each other out, so that no ac
component appears in either the motor current or the dc-link
current.

At the low-speed range of f 12 Hz, the commonmode voltage and the ac components of the circulating
currents are controlled actively to mitigate the acvoltage fluctuation of each dc-capacitor voltage.

where I1 is the command of the stator rms current. Note that
I1 and f are given not by feedback control but by feedforward
control.
Fig. 3 shows a per-phase equivalent circuit of an induction
motor based on the total linkage flux of the secondary windings
[13]. Although this circuit is valid only under steady-state
conditions, it is applicable to a fan-/blower-like load in which
motor speed changes slowly enough to be considered as the
continuity of steady-state conditions. Here, I1 is the stator
phasor current, I0 is the magnetizing phasor current, and I2 is

where rm = 2f /P . Equation (10) means that the acceleration torque is proportional to the slope of change in f . This
suggests the minimum torque required for the motor startup
is TM = TL when the term on the right hand side in (10) is
small enough to be negligible. In other words, the slope of f
should be set as small as possible to reduce the acceleration
torque.

for measurement.
The ac output terminals of the inverter are directly connected to an induction motor rated at 380 V and 15 kW.
The regenerative load in Fig. 5 consists of an induction
generator rated at 190 V and 15 kW and two identical PWM
converters connected back to back. The field-oriented control is
applied to the induction generator, which enables an arbitrary
instantaneous torque L to be loaded on the induction motor.
The control system shown in Fig. 5 detects each dccapacitor voltage vC , both positive- and negative-arm currents
iP and iN , and a dc-link voltage. These are input signals to the
A/D converters. Here, the multiplexer unit is used to reduce
the number of the analog signals from 24 to six. A digital
signal processor unit using a Texas Instrument TMS320C6713
takes in the digital signals from the A/D converters and
produces the voltage command of each chopper-cell. Note
that the motor mechanical speed, Nrm is obtained from a
tachogenerator attached to the motor shaft, not for control but
