: The objective of this paper is to implement an ac link universal power converter controlled BLDC motor for medical applications. The ac link universal power converter is a soft switched high frequency ac link converter, created using the parallel combination of an inductor and a capacitor. The parallel ac link converter handle the ac voltages and currents with low reactive ratings at the link and offers improved power factor, low power consumption, more efficiency and less weight on comparison with the traditional dc link converter. Because of the high throughput, BLDC motors are preferred widely medical applications. A modulation technique called Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation (SVPWM) is used to generate the three phase power for the BLDC motors from the input DC supply. To validate the proposed system, simulations are performed in MATLAB – Simulink and an experimental prototype is constructed to supplement the simulation results.

This paper proposed a low cost wireless monitoring system based on ZigBee wireless transmission, and designed a new floating voltage sensor which is suitable for the monitoring of medium voltage and high voltage(MV/HV) public equipment. The system used TI-CC2530 as the controller, proposed a new moving average voltage sensing(MAVS) algorithm by reasonable assumptions, and adopted algorithms to perform the theoretical analysis for the single phase and three-phase voltage. At last, the author carried out a practical experiment on the wireless floating voltage sensor under the voltage up to 30kV, the experimental results showed that the proposed low cost wireless sensor can achieve a good voltage monitoring function, and the error is less than 3%.
