Output voltage waves of a DC/AC inverter system are likely to be distorted if variable loads e.g. motors or rectifiers exist in the output terminal. This paper designs a disturbance observer-based PI-controller for a single-phase inverter system that is robust against load changes. In this Paper, we regard the output voltage changes due to various loads as disturbances of the control system. Then we design a disturbance observer for estimation of the disturbances caused by the load current and any other error sources (such as parameter uncertainties and model mismatches etc.). In order to test the performance of the proposed control law, simulation studies are carried out for a single-phase inverter system using SimPowerSystem of Matlab Simuink. Compared to a simple PI-control, the disturbance observer-based controller shows enhanced performance in transient responses for step load changes.

Phase noise spectrum distributions of signal generators for next-generation VSAT satellite system based on DVB-RCS2 were analyzed in this paper. The forward link of VSAT system utilizes the APSK higher-order modulation methods based on the DVB-S2 ACM, the modulation methods of the return link utilizes the higher-order PSK and QAM based on the DVB-RCS2. In digital satellite system using the higher-order modulation techniques, the phase noise have an effect on transmission performance, the transmission performance is dominantly degraded by the phase noise of signal generators in the transmission system. The phase noise spectrum distribution of signal generators are analyzed by considering the ACM conditions that adopts the modulation techniques and data rates due to satellite transmission environment. The proper phase noise spectrum distribution for next-generation VSAT system based on DVB-RCS2 are proposed from the analyzed phase noise spectrum characteristics.

In a multi-channel network based of wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) technology, an efficient protocol is needed in order for the transmitter and receiver to be tuned to the same wavelength during message transmission time. This paper proposes a priority-based reservation protocol that can efficiently support variable-length messages that require different QoS requirements. In this proposed protocol, high-priority nodes can reserve the data channel before low-priority nodes. However, once a node reserves a data channel successfully, it can persistently use the reserved channel till message transmission is finished regardless of the priority of the node. Moreover, the protocol can operate independently of the number of nodes, and any new node can join the network anytime without requiring network re-initialization. The protocol is analyzed with a finite population model and the throughput-delay characteristics are investigated as performance measures.

This study have established proper mathematical equivalent model of Brushless DC (BLDC) motor and estimated the motor parameter by means of the back-emf measurement as being the step input to the controlled target BLDC motor. And the validity of proposed estimation method is confirmed by the test result of step response. As well, we have designed the reasonable digital controller as a consequence of the root locus method which is obtained from the open-loop transfer function of BLDC motor with hall sensor, and the determination of control gain for variable speed control. Here, revised Ziegler-Nichols tuning method is applied for the proper digital gain establishment, and the system stability is verified by the frequency domain analysis with Bode-plot and experimentation.

인버터는 전기적으로 DC(직류)를 AC(교류)로 변환하는 역 변환 장치이며, 상용전원(AC 22V/440V)으로부터 공급된 전력을 입력받아 전압과 주파수를 가변시켜 전동기에 공급함으로써 전동기의 속도를 고효율로 이용하게 제어하는 장치이다. 본 논문에서는 550kW급 IGBT, DIODE의 발열에 의한 인버터 내부의 열 및 온도분포를 ICEPAK 상용코드를 통하여 수치적 해석을 수행하였다. 인버터의 발열은 캐패시터의 수명과 소자들의 오작동 등 많은 열적 문제를 가지고 있으며 Heat-sink, Fan, Duck등을 통하여 전도와 대류가 이루어지는 시스템이다. 인버터은 많은 파라미터들에 의해 온도가 결정되기 때문에 실험을 통한 해석은 제한적 일수 밖에 없다. 따라서 수치해석을 통하여 빠른 시간에 효율적인 열 설계를 할 수 있으며, 인버터의 크기는 최종적으로 Heat-sink의 형상에 따라 달라지므로 이를 최적화 하고 소형화 하는 작업이 필요하다. 인버터의 복잡한 내부구조상 하단부(발열원, Heat-sink, Fan등)만 수치해석을 수행하였을 때와 Full Model과는 $15^{\circ}C$ 온도 차이를 보였다. 최종적으로 인버터의 최적 열 설계를 위하여 Frame위치 변경, Heat-Sink 형상변화등 많은 수치해석을 통하여 만족할 만한 결과를 얻었다.

In this paper, a new voltage-controlled tunable analog active element for low-voltage applications and information protection is proposed. The proposed active element is composed of the CMOS complementary cascode circuit which can extend transconductance of an element. Therefore, the unity gain frequency which is determined transconductance is increased than that of the conventional element. And then these results are verified by the $0.25\mutextrm{m}$ CMOS n-well parameter HSPICE simulation. As a result, the gain and the unity gain frequency are 42㏈ and 200MHz respectively in the element on 2V supply voltage. And power dissipation of the designed circuit is 0.32mW.

In this paper, a hardware implementation of MOD(Moving Object Detection) algorithm is described, which is based GMM(Gaussian Mixture Model) and background subtraction. The EGML(Effective Gaussian Mixture Learning) is used to model and update background. Some approximations of EGML calculations are applied to reduce hardware complexity, and pipelining technique is used to improve operating speed. Gaussian parameters are adjustable according to various environment conditions to achieve better MOD performance. MOD processor is verified by using FPGA-in-the-loop verification, and it can operate with 109 MHz clock frequency on XC5VSX95T FPGA device.

This paper proposes a regulation method of DC line voltage for urban transit system fluctuated during the acceleration or deceleration by using supercapacitor. Supercapacitor is modelled electrically under the assumption of three different time constants of RC circuits with variable capacitances depending on the voltage. And its parameters are determined by the experimental measurements. The energy storage system using supercapacitors is installed based on this model, and the proposed model is tested through the simulations and experiments, and the controller for charging and discharging is designed. Finally, it is tested at Kyoungsan test site for the urban light rail road system and the energy saving effect is evaluated economically.

The new method is proposed to improve the dynamics of the phase angle detector during abrupt voltage dip caused by a grid fault. Usually, LPF(low pass filter) is used in the feedback loop of SRF(Synchronous Reference Frame) - PLL (Phase Locked Loop) system because the measured grid voltage contains harmonic distortions and sensor noises. A better transient response can be obtained with the proposed design method for SRF-PLL by the analysis of linearized model of the PLL system including LPF. Furthermore, in the proposed method, the controller gain and LPF cut-off frequency are changed from normal value to transient value when the voltage disturbance is detected. This paper shows the feasibility and the usefulness of the proposed methods through the computer simulation and the experiment.

In this paper, we proposed an adaptivefuzzy sliding control algorithm using gradient descent method to reduce chattering phenomenon which is viewed in variable control system. In design of FLC, fuzzy control rules are obtained from expert's experience and intuition and it is very difficult to obtain them. We proposed an adaptive algorithm which is updated by consequence part parameter of control rules in order to reduce chattering phenomenon and simultaneously to satistfy the sliding mode condition. The proposed algorithm has the characteristics which are viewed in conventional VSC, e.g. insensitivity to a class of disturbance, parameter variations and uncertainties in the sliding mode. To demonstrate its performance, the proposed control algorithm is applied to an inverted pendulum system. The results show that both alleviation of chattering and performance are achieved.
