The active devices used at microwave frequency have the different phase shift according to input power. Especially, The difference of the phase shift is large in the saturation region of the amplifier. In this paper, we disigned the phase control system for fixing the different phase shift at device. With the high frequency nonlinear amplifier, we fabricated such system that the phase shift to be fixed automatically using the varible phase shifter. The variable phase shifter fixed total phase variation of the circuit using the information that was obtained from the comparison of imputsignal phase with output signal phase. Even though the input signal is 2-tone or FM type, we could estimate and also fix the phase variation on DUT Dynamic range is about 10dB. It has been experimented at 1960MHz using Teflon (H=31mil, ${\varepsilon}r$=3.2)

A PWM inverter for an induction motor often has a problem with a high frequency leakage current that flows through stray capacitors between stator windings and a motor frame to ground. This paper proposes a new type of Active Common Mode Voltage Canceler circuit for the reduction of common mode voltage and high frequency leakage current generated by the PWM VSI-fed induction motor drives. The compensating voltage applied by the common made voltage canceler has the same amplitude as, hut the opposite polarity to, the common mode voltage by PWM Inverter. Therefore, common mode voltage and high frequency leakage current can be canceled. The proposed circuit consists of four-level half-bridge inverter and common-mode transformer. Simulated and experimental results show that common mode voltage canceler makes significant contributions to reducing a high frequency leakage current.

Shaking table tests are carried out on a single-degree-of-freedom mass that is equipped with a hybrid base isolation system. The isolator consists of a set of four specially-designed friction pendulum systems (FPS) and a magnetorheological (MR) damper. The structure and its hybrid isolation system are subjected to various intensities of near- and far-fault earthquakes on a large shake table. The proposed fuzzy controller uses feedback from displacement or acceleration transducers attached to the structure to modulate resistance of the semi-active damper to motion. Results from several types of passive and semi-active control strategies are summarized and compared. The study shows that a combination of FPS isolators and an adjustable MR damper can effectively provide robust control of vibration for a large full-scale structure undergoing a wide variety of seismic loads.

In this paper, through the study on locations of structural transducers for active control of the radiated sound from the vibrating plate, the active structural acoustic control (ASAC) system is proposed. And, for the evaluation of the proposed location, the experiment of the active structural acoustic control is implemented using the multi-channel filtered-x LMS algorithm and an additional filter (Acoustic Prediction Filter) to estimate the radiated sound using the acceleration signals of the plate. The structural transducers are piezoceramic actuator (PZT) and accelerometer. PZT is used as an actuator to reduce the vibration and the radiated sound. To maximize the control performance, each PZT actuator is located at the position that has the largest control sensitivity of the plate bending moment in the direction of x and y coordinates and the optimal PZT location is validated experimentally. Also, to find the acoustic prediction filter accurately, two accelerometers are located at the positions that have the largest radiation efficiencies of the plate, and the proposed locations are validated by simulation using the Rayleigh integral. The multi-channel filtered-x LMS algorithm is introduced to control a complex 2-D structural vibration mode. Finding the locations of structural transducers for active structural acoustic control of the radiated sound, the active structural acoustic control (ASAC) system can be presented and validated by experiments using a real time control system.

This paper resents a novel cargo system adapted for a sea port subjected to severe time-varying tide. The proposed system can perform loading or unloading by using a sort of hydraulic elevator associated with real-tim position control. As a preliminary phase, a small-sized model of the cargo system is designed and constructed. The model consists of three principal components ; container palette transfer(CPT) car, platform with lifting columns and cargo ship. The platform activated by the electro-rheological(ER) valve-cylinder is actively controlled to track the position of the cargo ship subjected to be varied due to the time-varying tide and wave motion. Following the derivation of the dynamic model for the platform and cargo ship motions, an appropriate control scheme incorporating time sequence and PID(proportional-integral-derivative) controller is formulated and implemented. Both the simulated and the measured control results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed cargo system.

The problem that occurred in the design/fabrication/testing of the wideband transmitting power amplifier for an embedded active SONAR (Sound Navigation and Ranging) system operating underwater was analyzed and the solution of the problem was proposed in this paper. Wideband acoustic SONAR systems had been developed in order to improve the underwater detection performance. The underwater acoustic transmission system had been also developed to achieve the wideband SONAR system. In this paper, the wideband acoustic transmission signal was generated using a 2 Level sawtooth type Class D PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) which was not complicated to implement. When the sonar signals having two or more frequencies were simultaneously generated, parasitic frequencies were added to the original signals by integer multiples of the frequency difference of the original signal. To cope with this problem, we proposed a way to remove the parasitic frequency from the source signal through modeling and simulation of the implemented power amplifier and PWM control hardware using MATLAB and Simulink.

In this paper, we constructed an array of speaker system with directivity by using FXLMS(Filtered-X LMS) algorithm and confirmed its directivity. The front $0^{\circ}$ characteristics of the controlled speaker was suppressed by interfering it with the control signal produced with filter coefficients optimized with respect to the $180^{\circ}$ characteristics of the rear speakers. The directivity of the array of rear speakers was measured and the damping effect of the signal from the front speaker array was confirmed. The frequency characteristics and directivity was investigated by using the adaptive filter coefficients on damping, the damping on the control point was verified in all the frequency range. In 100Hz, 200Hz, 1000Hz regime, the damping effect was observed in the range of front $60^{\circ}{\sim}100^{\circ}$.

This paper presents a new control method of single-phase active power filter(APF) for the compensation of harmonic current components in nonlinear loads. Constructing a imaginary second-phase giving time delay to load currents, making single-phase system into the system that has two phases, complex calculation is possible. In the previous method, it made a imaginary-phase lagged to the load current T/4(here T is the fundamental cycle), but in proposed method, the new signal, which has the delayed phase through the filter, using the phase-delay property of low-pass filter, was used to the second phase. Instantaneous calculation of harmonic current is possible, because two phase have different phase. In this paper, it was done with instantaneous calculation using the rotating reference frames(RRF) that synchronizes with source-frequency, a reference of compensation currents, not applying to instantaneous reactive power theory which uses the existed fixed reference frames. The simulation and experiment about R-L loads using the current source were carried out, and the effect of the proposed method was preyed through the result of this experiment.

Network management system(NMS) provides not only effective monitoring and controlling of network which consists of heterogeneous network elements but prompt response to users' need for high-level communication services. Recommendations of ITU-T and ISO stipulate the managerial abstraction of static and dynamic characteristics of network elements, management functions as well as management communication protocol. But the current description method does not provide the formal mechanism for the behavior characteristics of managed objects in clear manner but in natural language form, the complete specification of managed objects is not fully described. In this paper, we describe determinants for the behaviour of managed objects applicable to every managed object, and present a language for specifying behavioral aspects of managed objects based on their temporal and active properties.

The control performance in active structural control system can be drastically deteriorated when the modeling errors and the uncertainties existing in the disturbances are disregarded in the designing stage. It can even throw the control system into an unstable phase, resulting in out of control against the seismic excitations. The purpose of the study is to investigate the control effectiveness of a non-linear control system called sliding mode controller(SMC) in cooperation with a Tuned Mass Damper subjected to the three seismic excitations selected from the FFT analysis. Even though the transient performance such as settling time and overshoot were deteriorated, the robustness against the system stability was appeared from SMC when the structural masses and stiffness perturbed within the range of ${\pm}30%$. SMC is a feasible technique for active structural control in cooperation with TMD against seismic disturbances, exhibiting robustness in perturbation of system stiffness and mass as well as uncertainties of the disturbances.
