IEEE PELS/PES: Control of Power Electronics Systems using Predictive Switching Sequences and Switching Transitions
This presentation provides a fundamentally different perspective to the control of solid-state semiconductor-device-based switching power-electronic systems (PESs). It is based on controlling the time evolution of the feasible switching sequences and controlling the switching transitions of PESs. The former - that is, the switching-sequence-based control (SBC) - yields rapid response under transient condition, optimal equilibrium response, and yields seamless transition between the two dynamical modes. This presentation will provide the mechanism to carry out SBC synthesis and how it leads to multi-scale optimality leading to enhanced PES performance. Both electrical and newly developed optical-control mechanisms to achieve STC will be briefly outlined. Finally, envisioned mechanism for monolithic integration of SBC and STC will be illustrated. This presentation will demonstrate, along with results, multiple practical applications (currently of high priority in the power/energy space) where the radically new control concepts make a tangible and substantive difference.

Speakers
Prof. Sudip Mazumder of Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Chicago
Control of Power Electronics Systems
Biography:
Sudip K. Mazumder received his Ph.D. degree from Virginia Tech in 2001. He is a Professor and the Director of Laboratory for Energy and Switching-Electronics Systems in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Illinois, Chicago (UIC). He also serves as the President of the small business NextWatt LLC. He has over 24 years of professional experience and has held R&D and design positions in leading industrial organizations and has served as a Technical Consultant for several industries. His current areas of interests are switching-sequence and switching-transition based control of power-electronics systems and interactive-power networks; power electronics for renewable energy, micro/smart grids, energy storage; wide-bandgap (GaN/SiC) power electronics; and optically-triggered wide-bandgap power semiconductor devices. His research has attracted over 40 sponsored-research projects from leading federal agencies and industries, and yielded close to 200 peer reviewed publications in prestigious tier-one international journals and conferences, 9 patents, 10 book chapters and 1 (pending) book, and 82 invited/plenary/keynote lectures and presentations. He has guided/guiding 10 post-doctoral researchers and 15 Ph.D. and 10 M.S. students. He is the recipient of UIC’s Inventor of the Year Award (2014), University of Illinois’ University Scholar Award (2013), IEEE International Future Energy Challenge Award (2005), ONR Young Investigator Award (2005), NSF CAREER Award (2003), and IEEE PELS Transaction Paper Award (2002). In 2016, he was elevated to the rank of an IEEE Fellow and he was invited to serve as a Distinguished Lecturer for IEEE PELS beginning in 2016. He served/serving as the Guest Editor-in-Chief/Editor for IEEE PELS/IES Transactions between 2013-2014 and 2016-2017, as the first Editor-in-Chief for Advances in Power Electronics (2006- 2009), and as an Associate Editor for IEEE IES/PELS/TAES Transactions (2003-/2009-/2008-). Currently, he serves as the Chair for IEEE PELS TC on Sustainable Energy Systems.
