The global market for computer power supplies, converters, inverters and renewable energy systems is multi billion dollars per year. It is desirable to operate these products at higher efficiency, with better dynamic performance. The proposed research is intended to achieve these goals. The current source drive (CSD) technology and inductorless gate drive technology have been successfully applied to reduce switching losses in MOSFETs, which are used in computer power supplies. This has resulted in high efficiency power supplies for servers and computers. The charge balance control (CBC) technology has been successfully applied to power supplies for improving dynamic performance. Investigation will be carried out to develop new CSD technology and inductorless technology to reduce the switching loss of IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) devices in order to increase efficiency for converters, inverters, wind generator systems, and solar power inverters where IGBTs are extensively used. Investigation of CBC technology will be carried out to provide fast dynamic response for Boost and Buck-boost power supplies. This CBC technology will also be used in wind energy generator systems for fast dynamic response. Modern control techniques such as CBC, dynamically robust control and fuzzy logic control, will be implemented for the wind generator systems in order to achieve performance improvements. The research will benefit Canadian and international industries, enabling them to manufacture highly efficient and high quality power supplies, converters, inverters and renewable energy systems. Contacts with industries are underway and will be continued to commercialize some of the technologies developed. The proposed research program will contribute to the training of High Quality Personnel (HQP). Graduate students will gain valuable experience and research skills in the areas of power electronics, power supplies, modern control techniques and renewable energy systems, enabling them to contribute to Canadian industries.

计算机电源、转换器、逆变器和可再生能源系统的全球市场每年高达数十亿美元。期望以更高的效率操作这些产品，具有更好的动态性能。本研究旨在实现这些目标。 电流源驱动（CSD）技术和无电感器栅极驱动技术已成功地应用于降低MOSFET的开关损耗，这些MOSFET用于计算机电源。这导致了服务器和计算机的高效率电源。电荷平衡控制（CBC）技术已成功地应用于电源，以改善动态性能。 为了提高广泛使用IGBT的转换器、逆变器、风力发电系统、太阳能逆变器等的效率，将研究开发新的CSD技术和无电感器技术，以减少IGBT（绝缘栅双极型晶体管）器件的开关损耗。 CBC技术的研究将进行，以提供快速的动态响应的升压和降压升压电源。这种CBC技术也将用于风力发电机系统，以实现快速动态响应。 现代控制技术，如CBC，动态鲁棒控制和模糊逻辑控制，将实施风力发电机系统，以实现性能的改善。 该研究将使加拿大和国际行业受益，使他们能够制造高效和高质量的电源，转换器，逆变器和可再生能源系统。正在与工业界联系，并将继续将开发的一些技术商业化。该研究计划将有助于培养高素质的人才（HQP）。研究生将获得电力电子，电源，现代控制技术和可再生能源系统领域的宝贵经验和研究技能，使他们能够为加拿大工业做出贡献。
