This work discusses the application of power conditioning to high speed ground transportation vehicles propelled by linear induction motors. The vehicle electric power and propulsion system and characteristics of selected vehicles currently under development by the u.S. Department of Transportation are discussed. A Brief review of the linear induction motor is presented. Several classes of power conditioners 3 capable of controlling power to the linear induction motor, are described. These power conditioners include both those which provide variable voltage fixed frequency power control and variable frequency, constant volts per hertz power control.
