본 논문은 SiC MOSFET 디바이스를 사용하는 전력변환장치에서 Rogowski 코일을 이용하여 SiC MOSFET 디바이스에 흐르는 전류를 측정하여, 과전류를 검출하고 게이팅 신호를 차단하는 기법에 관하여 연구한다. SiC MOSFET는 소자의 특성으로 보편적으로 사용되는 과전류 검출 방법인 DeSAT 적용이 어렵기 때문에 Rogowski 코일을 사용하여 스위치 전류를 측정, 과전류를 검출한다. 본 논문에서는 PCB패턴 Rogowski 코일의 설계 방법뿐만 아니라 Rogowski 코일과 적분기의 대역폭에 대해서도 논의한다. 실험은 직류링크 커패시터에 SiC MOSFET 스위치 레그를 병렬로 연결하고, 직류링크 커패시터에 직류전압을 충전 후 스위치 레그를 약 6us정도 단락시켜 SiC MOSFET에 과전류를 발생시킨다. 이 때, 제안한 Rogowski 코일을 이용한 과전류 검출 및 차단 기법의 적용 전후를 비교하여 동작 및 성능(검출 및 차단 소요시간)을 확인한다. 마지막으로 실험 결과를 통해 본 논문에서 제안한 PCB패턴 Rogowski 코일을 이용하여 과전류 검출 및 차단 기법이 검증되었다.

In this paper, on-chp atomatic tuning circuit, using proposed integration level approximation technique, is designed to tuning of the variation of RC time-constant due to aging or temperature variation, etc. This circuit reduces the error, the difference between code values and real outputs of integrator, which is drawback of presented dual-slope tuning circuit and eliminates modulations of processing signals in integrated circuit due to fixed tuning codes during ordinary operation. This system is made up of simple integrator, A/D converter and digital control circuit and all capacitors are replaced by programed capacitor arrays in this system. This tuning circuit with 4 bit resolution achieves $-9.74{\sim}+9.68%$ of RC time constant error for 50% resistance variation.

In this paper, I analyzed array organization of MIMO channel antenna and effect of operation environment by evaluating average BER from linear Space-Time Block Code orthogonal design and suggests designing condition of MT antenna for improved BER and the fading index m. To analyze system performance, I used M-PSK and M-QAM modulation, and to use analysis equations I used integrated by Nakagami fading variable, non-integrated Nakagami fading variable. We can get the organization of channel array by using mathematical calculation on matrix. STBE BER performance will decrease as AOA spreading decrease and such loss can be compensated from extending antenna spacing, and changing array organization.

Although phonocardiography by auscultation has been used in diagnosis long time ago, recognition of heart sound was tried only restricted fields such as the first heart sound, the second heart sound, and specific valve operation for the purpose of analyzing local function or operation of heart and developments of heart sound recognition in full cycle are quite insignificant. in this paper, we proposed a recognition method which extracts features of heart sound in full cycle and classllies heart sounds This proposed recognition algorithm is based on detecting the first and second heart sounds in thme domain. The algorithm classifics heart sound into several classes by extracting the important time blocks and analyzing the peak position, integration values and statistical variables. Heart sounds are classified into normal, early systolic murmur, late systolic mumur, early diastolic murmur, late diastolie murmur, continuous murmur. We can verify our algorithm is useful from the results which show the average recognition rate of heart sounds is 88 perecnt. Recognition error was occurred mainly in early systolic murmur.

The Self Tuning Regulator(STR) method which is an approach of adaptive control theory, is ap-plied to design the fully automatic power controller of the nonlinear reactor model. The adaptive control represent a proper approach to design the suboptimal controller for nonlinear, time-varying stochastic systems. The control system is based on a third­order linear model with unknown, time-varying parameters. The updating of the parameter estimates is achieved by the recursive extended least square method with a variable forgetting factor. Based on the estimated parameters, the output (average coolant temperature) is predicted one-step ahead. And then, a weighted one-step ahead controller is designed so that the difference between the output and the desired output is minimized and the variation of the control rod position is small. Also, an integral action is added in order to remove the steady­state error. A nonlinear M plant model was used to simulate the proposed controller of reactor power which covers a wide operating range. From the simulation result, the performances of this controller for ramp input (increase or decrease) are proved to be successful. However, for step input this controller leaves something to be desired.

This paper presents an on-line correction method of current measurement errors for a pure-integration-based flux estimation down to 1-Hz stator frequency. An observer-based approach is taken as one possible solution of eliminating the dc offset and the negative sequence component of unbalanced gains in the synchronous coordinate. At the same time, the positive sequence component estimation is performed by creating an error signal between a motor model reference and an estimated q-axis rotor flux established by a permanent magnet (PM) in the synchronous coordinate. The compensator utilizes a PI controller that controls the error signal to zero. The proposed technique further contains a residual error compensator to completely eliminate miscellaneous disturbances in the estimated flux. The developed algorithm has been implemented on a 1.1-kW permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM) drive to confirm the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

In this paper, a hierarchical simulation with an approximate implicit method is proposed in order to efficiently and plausibly animate mass-spring based cloth models. The proposed hierarchical simulation method can generate realistic motion of extremely fine mesh in interactive rate. The proposed technique employs a fast and stable simulation method which approximates the implicit integration. Although the approximate method is efficient, it is extremely inaccurate and shows excessively damped behavior. The hierarchical simulation technique proposed in this paper constructs multi-level mesh structure in order to represent the realistic appearance of cloth model and performs simulation on each level of the mesh with constraints that enforce some of the mass-points of current level to follow the movement of the previous level. This hierarchical method efficiently generates a plausible movement of a cloth model composed of large number of mass points. Moreover, this hierarchical method enables us to generate realistic wrinkles on the cloth, and the wrinkle pattern on the cloth model can be easily controlled because we can specify different contraction resistance force of springs according to their hierarchical level.

This paper proposes an architecture of $3^{rd}$ order SDM(Sigma-Delta Modulator) with delayed feed-forward path in order to reduce the power consumption and area. The proposed SDM improve the architecture of conventional $3^{rd}$ order SDM which consists of two integrators. The proposed architecture can increase the coefficient values of first stage doubly by inserting the delayed feed-forward path. Accordingly, compared with the conventional architecture, the capacitor value($C_I$) of first integrator is reduced by half. Thus, because the load capacitance of first integrator became the half of original value, the output current of first op-amp is reduced as 51% and the capacitance area of first integrator is reduced as 48%. Therefore, the proposed method can optimize the power and the area. The proposed architecture in this paper is simulated under conditions which are supply voltage of 1.8V, input signal 1Vpp/1KHz, signal bandwidth of 24KHz and sampling frequency of 2.8224MHz in the 0.18um CMOS process. The simulation results are SNR(Signal to Noise Ratio) of 88.9dB and ENOB(Effective Number of Bits) of 14-bits. The total power consumption of the proposed SDM is $180{\mu}W$.

In this Paper the electronic ballast using the SEPIC(Single Ended Primary Inductor Converter) converter for the multiple electrodeless fluorescent lamps is proposed, which has the structure of the active PFC and self oscillating function. The SEPIC converter system has the characteristics of the power factor with low input current harmonic distortion. The proposed control method is based on the aveage-current-mode using the dedicated integrated circuit UC3854. The proposed electronic ballast has the reduction effect for the energy and manufacturing cost because it is designed for tripple electrodeless fluorescent lamps. The experimental results shows that the power factor is higher and the THD is lower.

The lens is modelled as a 2-dimension planar circuit, the contour integral method is performed over entire lens contour and the transmission coefficients from 8 beam ports to 8 array ports are found. The measured results are well agreed with those of analysis. Prediction of the multibeam array pattern fed by linear array antenna shows $\pm$65$^{\circ}$ of beam steering and $\pm$5 dB insertion loss deviation over 3:1 frequency range.
