This paper presents a new method for designing a ballast that can provide dimming control of an electrodeless fluorescent lamp. Frequency control of lamp power is inappropriate because the lamp coefficients such as equivalent impedance, coupling coefficient of the transformer, and plasma resistance are a function of lamp power. In this paper, the dimming is achieved by controlling the DC_Link voltage in relation to the lamp power. The DC_Link voltage is controlled by a buck converter. Simulation and experimental results of the proposed design method are presented in order to validate the proposed method.

Various residential patterns, which can accommodate ever-changing modem lifestyles, are increasingly needed. On the residents' demand for flexible space, mote research should be conducted on the apartments built by the concept of flexible space. In this study, apartments of 40-60 pyeong in size built in the region of Seoul, between 1998 and 2007, are analyzed in terms of the flexible types and the unit plan composition. To reflect the changes in people's perception of residential quality-preference for a residence with a good view, over for the direction that a residence faces, more rooms are placed on the front bay. From the analyses of this study, flexible unit plans are classified into 6 types; and it was found that, as the size of apartments gets larger, the livingroom and the dinning room tend to be placed on the front bay. After grouping rooms with a similar function into the spatial zones of the master bedroom, children's room, the livingroom, and the dinning room, flexible types are analyzed in terms of the location of rooms. The results of this study will be able to contribute to establishing flexible housing culture that can accommodate the changing needs of residents.

In this paper, we consider the transmission or variable bit rate (VBR) stored video for the distributed video streaming service over Internet. In streaming service, users often suffer from the discontinuity in playback due to the decrease in bandwidth during transmission according to bandwidth renegotiation protocol. We propose a novel transmission technique to overcome this problem for stored variable bit rate video. This scheme uses a priori information of stored VBR video to continue streaming without playback discontinuity. In addition, an approximation scheme for the buffer-bandwidth relation is proposed in order to facilitate the admission control under the proposed scheme.

In this paper, it is studied a novel SAW oscillator by applicating SAW delay characteristics, which can be variable its frequencies by consiting of two output IDT(Inter-Digital Transducer) without external filtering and resonating circuits. The results of experiments showed the temperature characteristics of AT-cut quartz which has been used as frequency-determing substrate of SAW oscillator was good. Though the variable frequencies range was narrow but the experiments showed the possibility to broaden its frequencies range by design of SAW device, and also confromed the stability of fundamental wave oscillating in high frequency range.

5MW wind turbine is regarded as a promising system for offshore wind farms in the western sea of Korean. And the wind turbine is developed in many companies but not much information is known about it. In this study, aerodynamics and control characteristics depending on several control methods is reviewed on 5MW wind turbine, in which configuration data of the turbine are used from the previous study of NREL. For the calculations, GH_Bladed, which is certificated software by GL, is used and compared with data from FAST code of NREL. This study shows that how much power production, and aerodynamic performances and loads can be obtained with different controls in the operation of 5MW wind turbine, which is expected to be useful in the design of the wind turbine system.

결정질 태양전지에서 도핑(Doping)은 반도체(Semiconductor)의 PN 접합(Junction)을 형성하는 중요한 역할을 한다. 도핑은 반도체에 불순물(Dopant)을 주입하는 공정으로 고온에서 진행되며 온도는 중요한 변수(Parameter)로 작용한다. 본 연구에서는 여러 가지 도핑 방법 중 SOD(Spin-On Dopant)를 이용하여 온도에 따른 도핑 결과와 특성을 분석 하였다. P-type 웨이퍼(Wafer)에 SOD를 이용하여 불순물을 증착 후 Hot-plate에서 15분간 Baking 하였다. Baking된 웨이퍼는 노(Furnace)에 넣고 $860^{\circ}C{\sim}880^{\circ}C$까지 $10^{\circ}C$씩 가변하였다. 각각의 조건에 대해 Lifetime과 Sheet Resistance을 측정하였고, 그 결과 $880^{\circ}C$에서의 Lifetime이 $23.58{\mu}s$로 $860^{\circ}C$에 비해 235.8% 증가하여 가장 우수 하였으며, Sheet Resistance 또한 $68{\Omega}$/sq로 $860^{\circ}C$에서 가장 우수하게 측정되었다. SOD의 속도 가변에 따른 특성 변화를 보기 위해 온도는 $880^{\circ}C$에 고정한 후 속도를 3000rpm~4500rpm까지 500rpm간격으로 1시간동안 실험한 결과 rpm 속도에 따른 lifetime 변화는 거의 없었으며, Sheet Resistance는 3000rpm에서 $63{\Omega}$/sq로 가장 우수 하였다. 본 연구를 통해 온도와 Spin rpm에 따른 특성을 확인한 결과 온도가 높을 때 Sheet Resistance가 가장 안정화 되며, lifetime이 더욱 우수한 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Existing techniques for string similarity search first generate a set of candidate strings and then verify the candidates. The efficiency of string similarity search is highly dependent on candidate generation methods. State of the art techniques select fixed length q-grams from a query string and generate candidates using inverted lists of the selected q-grams. In this paper, we propose a technique to generate candidates using variable length grams of a query string and develop a dynamic programming algorithm that selects an optimal combination of variable length grams from a query string. Experimental results show that the proposed technique improves the performance of string similarity search compared with the existing techniques.

Business process modeling is to represent the business activities in a graphical notation that enterprises use to achieve their customer's requirements. Nowadays, lots of requirements are changed quickly and variously. Therefore, business process models should provide the means which can prepare for changes by analyzing (pointing) elements of business process that are likely to alter. In this paper, we propose a business process family model (BPFM) which represents the commonalities and the variabilities of a set of business processes. In addition, we propose the process which develops the tools for BPFM based on Eclipse Plug-In Graphical Modeling Framework (GMF). The variabilities of Business Process are modeled by using expanded model elements of UML2.0 activity diagram.

This paper proposed a tunable band pass filter. It is two-poles direct capacitive coupled resonator band pass filter which the capacitors of parallel resonators are changed by varactor diodes. The DC bias controls to change the value of capacitance in the parallel resonator for tunning the pass band. To validate the proposed design method, we fabricated the band pass filter which has tunable center frequency from 200MHz to 245MHz.

In this letter, we propose a mathematical model of variable-length payloads transmitted in EDCA and transmitted using MU-MIMO. Assuming fixed-length or the use of mean value of payload length leads to discordant results while calculating the total payload length of variable-length frames transmitted within a fixed duration. Using the proposed model results in accurate results (less than 3% relative errors) for total payload length under variable-length traffic.
