This paper proposes an extended TCP/IP protocol, LAN/TCP, that can be used for the distributed soft real-time systems connected through the Ethernet-based local area network. Since LAN/TCP shows soft real-time performance with keeping compatibility and interoperability with the standard TCP/IP, the existing application software can be used without any modification. LAN/TCP also provides the periodic transmission mode(PTM) with which the periodical data collection and updating the control signals can be efficiently implemented with relatively small traffic overhead. This paper includes the computer simulation and experimental results of the proposed protocol.

An Ad-hoc network which is composed of mobile nodes only should be able to distribute the traffic load evenly to the network so that the network could utilize its resources effectively However, most of researches have been concentrated in channel establishment level, not in channel reestablishment level. In this paper, the existing AODV routing protocol has been modified and upgraded to disperse the traffic load more quickly A node which uses the modified AODV routing protocol proposed in this paper broadcasts a control message to adjacent nodes, which announces congestion around the node. In order to verify the performance improvement of the proposed protocol, simulation study has been carried out by using ns2 simulator.

Recently, a power supply system of the telecommunication equipments with monitoring function has been widely studied. In the power supply system which is apart from the central station, it is required to check and test the operating states of the system at the central station. In this paper, the power supply system with monitoring function is discussed. In the system, the Full-Bridge converter is designed as a power supply and it has the ratings of DC 280-340V input and DC 48V, 480W output. And the monitoring part of the system is composed of a voltage and current sensing unit A/D converter, I/O card, and a personal computer. The operating states of the system is monitored by checking the voltage and current variation at input and output, and it is represented by graphical modes. By conducting the experiment, it is confirmed that the operating states of the system is well monitored.

판토그라프는 전차선(catenary)으로부터의 전류를 차량에 전달하는 장치로서 전동차 지붕 위에 설치되어 있다. 판토그라프의 설계 목표는 고속 및 다양한 환경 조건하에서 연속적이고 일정한 량의 전류를 차량에 전달하도록 하는 것이다. 열차가 고속화될수록 전류의 흐름이 중단되는 이선, 접촉선과 판토그라프 집전판의 마모, 공력 소음 등이 큰 문제로 대두되며, 이들 문제들이 고속용 판토그라프의 설계 기술에서 중요시되고 있다. 특히 이선은 동력 전달이 중단될 뿐만 아니라 이선시에 발생하는 아크로 인한 마모 증대, 통신 장해를 일으킨다. 유럽과 일렬에서는 그러한 문제를 인식하고 고속용 판토그라프에 대한 연구를 활발히 진행하고 있다. 또한 저속전철이나 고속전철을 운행하는 나라에서는 기존의 가선계를 그대로 이용하면서 고속화를 달성하기 위하여 기존 가선계에 대한 최적의 판토그라프 설계에 노력을 기울이고 있다. 본 논문에서는 국내 기존선 고속화에 필요한 최고속도 180km/h급 틸팅차량시스템의 핵심 구성요소인 판토그라프 제어기술에 대한 연구를 통하여 보다 안전한 틸팅차량용 판토그프사양 개발하는데 목적이 있다.

In cognitive radios, secondary users can use the spectrum exclusively allocated to a primary wireless system if the secondary users detect the spectrum in idle states. Because the secondary users can utilize the idle state of the spectrum, the utilization rate of the spectrum can be improved. The idle states can be detected by using secondary users' sensing schemes. However, the wireless channel environment where secondary users perform the spectrum sensing is not very friendly to secondary users because the signal-to-noise ratio of the received primary signal is very low. Hence, cooperative sensing scheme where more than one secondary user take part in the spectrum sensing is generally used in cognitive radios. In this paper, we investigate the cooperative sensing performance for machine-to-machine communication devices operated by batteries with limited energy. In general, the energy consumed for the spectrum sensing increases as the length of the sensing period and the number of cooperative sensing nodes. Accordingly, even though the total amount of the consumed energy is the same, an energy allocation methodology how to distribute the energy to the sensing period and sensing nodes can achieve the optimum sensing performance, which is numerically analyzed.

Electrolytic power capacitors have been widely used in power conversion system such as inverter or UPS because of characteristics of large capacitance, high-voltage and low-cost. The electrolytic capacitor, which is most of the time affected by the aging effect, plays a very important role for the power-electronics system quality and reliability. Therefore it is important to diagnosis monitoring the condition of an electrolytic capacitor in real-time to predict the failure. In this paper, the on-line remote diagnosis monitoring system for UPS DC link electrolytic capacitors using low-cost single-chip zigbee communication modules is developed. To estimate the health status of the capacitor, the equivalent series resistor(ESR) of the component has to be determined. The capacitor ESR is estimated by using RMS computation using BPF modeling of DC link ripple voltage/current. Zigbee-based hardware experimental results show that the proposed remote capacitor diagnosis monitoring system can be applied to UPS successfully.

In this paper, we studied the derivation method of isoflux radiation for a planar array antenna. The presented array antenna was designed for considering of 1U-sized CubeSAT with Ku-band communications. For the presented array antenna, 8×8 radiating elements were arranged, and the distance between radiating elements was set of half-wavelength. The excited current weighting for each radiating elements was calculated by the signal processing technique used in the design of the low-pass filter. As a result of analysis of the method proposed in this paper, it was confirmed that a seamless isoflux pattern can be derived.

This paper presents a controller for the multiple DC motors using the CAN(Controller Area Network). The controller has a benefit of reducing the cable connections and making the controller boards compact through the network including expansibility. CAN, among the field buses, is a serial communication methodology which has the physical layer and the data link layer in the ISO's OSI (Open System Interconnect) 7 layered reference model. It provides the user with many powerful features including multi-master functionality and the ability to broadcast / multicast telegrams. When we use a microprocessor chip embedding the CAN function, the system becomes more economical and reliable to react shortly in the data transmission. The controller, we proposed, is composed of two main controllers and a sub controller, which have built with a one-chip microprocessor having CAN function. The sub controller is plugged into the Pentium PC to perform a CAN communication, and connected to the main controllers via the CAN. Main controllers are responsible for controlling two motors respectively. Totally four motors, actuators for the biped robot in our laboratory, are controlled in the experiment. We show that the four motors are controlled properly to actuate the biped robot through the network in real time.

DC bus electrolytic capacitors are used in variety of equipments as smoothing element of the power converters because it has high capacitance for its size and low price. It is responsible for frequent breakdowns of many static converters and inverter drive systems. Therefore it is important to diagnosis monitoring the condition of an electrolytic capacitor in real-time to predict the failure of power converter. In this paper, the on-line remote diagnosis monitoring system for DC BUS electrolytic capacitors of power converter using low-cost type Zigbee communication modules is developed. To estimate the health status of the capacitor, the equivalent series resistor(ESR) of the component has to be determined. The capacitor ESR is estimated by using RMS computation using AC coupling method of DC link ripple voltage/current. The Zigbee communication-based experimental results show that the proposed remote DC capacitor diagnosis monitoring system can be applied to DC/DC converter and UPS successfully.
