In the era of society integration through the concept of Internet of Things (IoT), there is relentless need for revolutionary power electronic systems. Sound integration of subsystems and services, ranging from smart grid to health organizations to military sites and critical loads, is a must. A key to achieve this is a research program that will introduce an information system back boned by a power circuits designed in a novel way to reduce its cost but keep its reliability up to the standards. This research program represents a multidisciplinary technology that includes but not limited to; power semiconductors, control theory, microcomputers, electrical machine design, and converter circuits with very large scale integration (VLSI) capabilities. An important aspect of the power electronics applications in any society is about the utmost use of electricity. For example, the use of electric cars achieves a greener society; this would have been impossible without power electronic converters. Novel power electronic circuits will be developed, using the most recent advanced semiconductors like Gallium Nitride (GaN), Silicon Carbide (SiC), and hybrid ACCUFETs. The cost of these semiconductors and their associated control circuits is falling with time, while the cost of bulky passive components remains the same. This drives the power electronics engineer to provide a “semiconductor” based solution rather than a traditional passive solution. An example is the use of GaN converters in electric vehicles as they operate at very high frequencies, which reduces the size of inductors and capacitors; making them lighter and more compact. New semiconductors require driving circuits with reduced energy consumption, which is another merit. The objectives of the program are to: (1) design power electronic circuits for drive applications with new semiconductors; (2) Investigate the use of resonant converters to make the build light and compact; (3) The integration of these drive systems into the IoT will require a novel powering scheme for these backbone communication circuits, namely Power over the Ethernet, (4) Control of power electronic circuits using the state of the art digital controllers, and investigation of fuzzy and neural based controllers, and (5) Design of the so called “Hybrid Motors”, where mixed laminations from cost effective induction motors are blended carefully into the expensive permanent magnet motors to achieve the utmost cost effectiveness of future motors without degrading its performance. This research program will not only focus on better options for the power drive systems, but also micro controller based processing and fabrication of these new materials, in which the applicant possesses extensive industrial experience. Undoubtedly, this research program will prevail as a futuristic electrical engineering discipline.

在社会融合的时代通过物联网（IoT）的概念，对革命性电力电子系统存在不懈的需求。从智能电网到卫生组织再到军事站点和关键负担，子系统和服务的合理集成是必须的。实现这一目标的关键是一项研究计划，该计划将通过以新颖方式设计的电路来介绍信息系统，以降低其成本，但将其可靠性保持在标准上。 该研究计划代表了一种多学科技术，其中包括但不限于；功率半导体，控制理论，微型计算机，电机设计和具有非常大型集成（VLSI）功能的转换器电路。 电力电子应用在任何社会中的一个重要方面是最大程度地利用电力。例如，电动汽车的使用实现了更绿色的社会。没有电力电子转换器，这将是不可能的。 使用最新的晚期半导体，如氮化甲便条（GAN），碳化硅（SIC）和混合动力Accufets，将开发新型的电动电路。这些半导体及其相关的对照电路的成本随着时间而下降，而笨重的被动组件的成本保持不变。这驱使电力电子工程师提供基于“半导体”的解决方案，而不是传统的被动解决方案。一个例子是电动汽车在非常高的频率下运行时使用gan转换器，从而减小了诱导和电容器的大小。使它们更轻，更紧凑。新的半导体需要减少能耗的驾驶电路，这是另一个优点。 该程序的目标是：（1）使用新半导体的驱动应用设计电源电路； （2）调查使用谐振转换器使构建轻巧和紧凑的使用； （3）将这些驱动系统的整合到IoT中将需要针对这些骨干通信电路的新型动力方案，即对以太网的电力，（4）使用艺术数字控制器的状态控制电动电路，以及对模糊和神经基于神经的控制器的投资以及所谓的“诸如杂种动力的成本量”的设计，并（5）逐步构成杂物的构造，该构造是有效的，有效地指标了lame laminations limantations limantions the lame lam ant。在不降低其性能的情况下实现未来电动机的最大成本效率的电动机。 该研究计划不仅将着重于动力驱动系统的更好选择，而且还将集中在这些新材料的基于微控制器的处理和制造上，其中适用的工业经验丰富。毫无疑问，该研究计划将作为未来派电气工程学科占上风。
