차동 전력 조절기 시스템은 PV 모듈의 부분 음영으로 인해 전체 발전량이 감소하는 현상을 방지하기 위해서 사용한다. 기존의 차동 전력 조절기는 PV 패널과 바이패스 다이오드를 연결하여 구성한 PV 스트링당 한 개의 전력변환 장치가 필요하므로, 전력변환 장치의 개수가 증가하고 전력 시스템의 설치비용이 증가한다. 본 논문에서는 복수의 스트링에 단일 전력변환장치를 사용할 수 있는 차동 전력 조절기 모듈의 구조와 동작 알고리즘을 제안한다. 차동 전력 조절기에 대한 동작 알고리즘을 통해 다양한 부분 음영 조건 시에도 기존의 직렬 연결방식이나 차동 전력 조절 방식에 비하여 최대 발전량을 유지할 수 있다. 제안하는 차동 전력 조절기의 동작 알고리즘은 Matlab/Simulink 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 검증하였다.

A solar power generation system on single point moored offshore plant has independent power system In order to satisfy the maritime environment and account for the number of sunless days, it is important to supply stable electric power to the systems. For these reasons, solar panels are installed in multiple directions. However, a partial shading effect occurs because the amount of light incident on each panel is different. The generated power by the solar generation system installed on land is affected by the latitude, then it is installed at an angle of 30 to $45^{\circ}$. in the case of Korea. In the case of a solar power generation system installed in a mooring type of marine plant, there is a possibility that the maximum power point is outside of the controllable range due to the partial shading effect. Therefore, a power generation loss occurs. By reducing the light amount difference between both panels, the maximum power point can exist in a range where the MPPT algorithm can track the power. The purpose is so the power generation efficiency can be further increased. In this paper, simulation results show that the highest power generation efficiency is obtained at an installation angle of $20^{\circ}$.

이동통신 무선망 설계 시에는 전파강도가 부족하여 발생하는 부분적인 음영지역을 해결하기 위해서 기지국 신호를 재증폭하는 중계기를 이용하게 된다. 이러한 중계기는 입출력 안테나 사이에 충분한 격리도를 확보하지 않으면 증폭된 출력신호가 입력단으로 유입되어 시스템 발진현상이 발생하게 된다. 격리도에 따라 신호의 신호대잡음비를 저하시키는 수준의 미세발진이 발생하거나 출력증폭기의 한계점에 도달시키는 완전발진이 발생 된다. 기지국에 입력된 신호를 복조하여 신호의 상태에 따라 단말기 출력을 증가시키도록 제어하는 상황에서 이러한 중계기의 발진현상은 시스템 성능의 현저한 저하를 가져오게 된다. 본 논문에서는 실험적으로 발견된 중계기 발진현상을 수학적 모델링을 통하여 중계기의 특성 및 입출력 안테나 사이의 격리도와 미세발진현상과의 관계를 규명한다. 아울러 실험결과와의 비교분석을 통하여 본 논문에서 제시한 모델링의 타당성을 증명한다.

Solar cells in a PV module are connected in series and parallel to produce a higher voltage and current. The PV module has performance characteristics depending on solar radiation and temperature. In addition, the PV system causes power loss by special situations, including the shadows of the surrounding environment, such as nearby buildings and trees. In other words, an increase in power loss and a decrease in life cycle can occur because of the partial shadow and hot-spot effect. Therefore, this paper proposes the optimal configuration algorithm of a bypass diode to improve the output of a PV module and one of a PV array to minimize the loss of the PV array. In addition, this paper presents a model of a PV module and PV array based on the PSIM S/W. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed optimal configuration algorithms are useful tools for improving the performance of PV system.

Recently, the installation of PV systems has been increasing due to the worldwide interest in eco-friendly and renewable solar energy. On the other hand, the output power of PV systems is influenced strongly by the surrounding weather conditions. In addition, the entire operation efficiency of PV systems may be decreased considerably even if only some of the PV modules are in the shade. In other words, the existing control method at which strings with modules in series are connected to an inverter may be not operated in the case that the string voltage in partial shade is lower than the operating range of the grid connected inverter. To overcome these problems, this paper proposes an operation efficiency improvement device of a PV system using a Li-ion battery, which can compensate for the voltage of each string in the PV system when it is partially shaded. In addition, this paper presents the modeling of the operation efficiency improvement device, including PV strings, Li-ion battery and a 3-Phase grid inverter based on the PSIM S/W. From the simulation results, it was confirmed that the proposed control method can improve the operating efficiency of PV systems by compensating for the string voltage with partial shade.

Recently, the installation of photovoltaic (PV) systems has been increasing due to the worldwide interest in eco-friendly and infinitely abundant solar energy. However, the output power of PV systems is highly influenced by the surrounding environment. For instance, a string of PV systems composed of modules in series may become inoperable under cloudy conditions or when in the shade of a building. In other words, under these conditions, the existing control method of PV systems does not allow the string to be operated in the normal way, because its output voltage is lower than the operating range of the grid connected inverter. In order to overcome this problem, we propose a new control method using a DC-DC voltage regulator which can compensate for the voltage of each string in the PV system. Also, based on the PSIM S/W, we model the DC-DC voltage regulator with constant voltage control & MPPT (Maximum Power Point Tracking) control functions and 3-Phase grid connected inverter with PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) control function. From the simulation results, it is confirmed that the present control method can improve the operating efficiency of PV systems by compensating for the fluctuation of the voltage of the strings caused by the surrounding conditions.

The aim of this study is to analyze the short-term changes of beach and dune morphology at Hwajin beach, Korea using by terrestrial LIDAR. Based on ArcInfo as point cloud obtained through precise analyzing studying area twice (1st : Sep 1. 2010, 2nd : Oct 2nd. 2010) by terrestrial LIDAR, alteration of beach and dune was analyzed at DEM, of which cell size is about 10cm. Consequently, during the studying period, coastlines at studying area moved backward and reduced the area of coastal zone. In a section change, the north beach moved backward with more eroded beach face and the middle section of south beach moved forward with more deposited beach face. Considering all the section changes of beach at studying area, beach section during the 1st measurement period can be defined as a summer profile, and it can be explained that the temporary storm profile was formed by the strong wave created during studying period. As a result of analyzing the alteration of beach area by terrestrial LIDAR, alteration of narrow area was able to be analyzed in detail by class of 'centimeter' and the time was able to be shortened.

In recent years, there are some confusions related to the definition and existence of mountain ranges, which have been described in current geography text books. We contend that these confusions came from the lack of understanding on the geomorphological processes that form the mountain system in Korea. This research attempts to clarify the definition of mountain ranges and offer geological and geomorphological explanations about the formation of them. Based on the analyses of the social and cultural causes underlying the recent debates on the existence of mountain ranges, we tried to identify the relationships among the definition of mountain ranges, geological structure of Korea, and the forming processes of mountain ranges. The current and past mountain range maps were compared with geological structures, geological maps, surface curvature, and hill shade maps. The latter two maps were derived from a Digital Elevation Model of the Korean Peninsular. The results show that we are able to prove the existence of most mountain ranges, which provides a useful framework to understand the geological evolution of Korean peninsular and formation of mountainous landscape of Korea. In terms of their morphological continuity and genesis, however, we identified five different categories of mountain ranges: 1) Uplift mountain ranges(Hamkyeong Sanmaek, Nangrim Sanmaek, Taebaek Sanmaek), which were formed by the uplift processes of the Korean Peninsular during the Tertiary; 2) Falut mountain ranges(Macheonryeong Sanmaek, Sobaek Sanmaek, Buksubaek Sanmaek), whirh were directly related to the uplift processes of the Korean Peninsular during the Tertiary; 3) Trust mountain ranges(Jekyouryeong Sanmaek, Kwangju Sanmaek, Charyeong Sanmaek, Noryeong Sanmaek), which were formed by the intrusion of granite and consequent orogenic processes during the Mesozoic era; 4) Drainage divide type mountain ranges, which were formed by the erosion processes after the uplift of Korean Peninsular; 5) Cross-drainage basin type mountain ranges (Kangnam Sanmaek, Eunjin Sanmaek, Myelak sanmaek), which were also formed by the erosion processes, but the mountain ranges cross several drainage basins as connecting mountains laterally We believe that the current social confusions related to the existence of mountain ranges has partly been caused by the vague definition of mountain ranges and the diversity of the forming processes. In order to overcome theses confusions, it is necessary to characterize the types of them according the genesis, the purpose of usages and also the scale of maps which will explains the mountain systems. It is also necessary to provide appropriate educational materials to increase the general public's awareness and understanding of geomorphological processes.
