With the development of high-frequency, miniaturized, and lightweight power electronic devices, third-generation semiconductor devices are more and more used in the main circuits of power electronic converters. The electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by their fast switching can affect the performance of power electronic converters. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the modeling and suppression methods of conducted noise in power electronic converters of third-generation semiconductor devices. This paper describes the EMI sources and coupling paths of EMI in third-generation semiconductor devices used in power electronic converters. The modeling methods of EMI are summarized from the perspectives of power devices and coupling paths. The suppression methods of conducted noise are summarized by suppressing EMI sources and improving coupling path characteristics. This paper provides a reference for the electromagnetic compatibility design of power electronic converters for third-generation semiconductor devices.
In order to optimize the charging of lithium-ion batteries, a multi-stage charging method that considers the charging time and energy loss as optimization targets has been proposed in this paper. First, a dynamic model based on a first-order circuit has been established, and the model parameters have been identified. Second, on the basis of the established model, we treat the objective function of the optimization problem as a weighted sum of charging time and energy loss. Finally, a dynamic programming algorithm (DP) has been used to calculate the charging current of the objective function. Simulation and experimental results show that the proposed charging method could effectively reduce the charging time and decrease the energy loss, compared with the constant-current constant-voltage charging method, under the premise of exerting little influence on the attenuation of battery capacity.
