직렬 연결된 배터리는 각 셀의 내부 화학적 특성 차이로 인해 동일 전류로 충전 및 방전 과정을 진행하여도 셀 간에 미세한 전압 차이가 발생한다. 이러한 셀 간 전압 불균형은 배터리 셀에 해로운 영향을 끼치게 되는데, 2차 전지의 경우 배터리 용량의 변화를 야기한다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해서 배터리 운용 범위를 제한하는 보호회로가 있지만 보호회로는 직렬 연결된 배터리 셀 중 가장 전압이 높거나 가장 낮은 셀을 기준으로 충전과 방전 사이클을 종료시키므로 배터리 팩의 용량을 최대한으로 사용하지 못하게 하는 문제를 발생시킨다. 배터리 균등화 회로는 셀 간의 전압 차이를 줄여 배터리의 최대 용량을 사용하고자 하는 목적을 가진다. 저항을 기반으로 하는 수동적인 방법과는 달리 스위칭 소자를 이용하는 능동적인 방법에서는 스위칭으로 인해 입출력 전압 변동이 발생하여 컨버터 내부에 흐르는 전류가 수시로 변하는 문제가 생긴다. 위 문제를 해결하기 위한 방법으로 본 논문에서는 배터리 균등화 회로에 전하 제어(Charge control)기법을 제안하고, 그에 따른 회로 설계 요소를 제시한다.

In H/W implementation for the finite field the use of normal basis has several advantages, especially, the optimal normal basis is the most efficient to H/W implementation in $GF(2^m)$. In this paper, we propose a new, simpler, parallel multiplier over $GF(2^m)$ having a Gaussian normal basis of type k, which performs multiplication over $GF(2^m)$ in the extension field $GF(2^{mk})$ containing a type-I optimal normal basis. For k=2,4,6 the time and area complexity of the proposed multiplier is the same as tha of the best known Reyhani-Masoleh and Hasan multiplier.

Annually, electrical fires caused by arcing phenomena in power system rapidly increase as the use of more electric appliances, but there is no established method for the prevention of the accidents. With this background, this paper dealt with the experimental results on a series arc detection technique and a device for air conditioners. Series arcing phenomena that is generated in incomplete connection of air conditioners was simulated, and the frequency spectrum was analyzed. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) of the arc pulse showed that the dominant frequency components exist in ranges of 190 kHz~250 kHz and 900 kHz~1.6 MHz. An arc detection circuit with low cut off frequency of 170 kHz to attenuate 60 Hz by 170 dB and a signal discriminator were designed. Also, an algorithm which separate series arc signal from unwanted noises produced by switching operation, inverter, and surge was proposed. Application experiment was carried out on several types of air-conditioners by using the arc generator specified in UL1699, and the results showed the over 99 % accuracy.

Serially concatenated multilevel coded modulation (SCMCM) is proposed in this paper. It is a combined scheme of the outer convolutional code and inner multilevel coded modulation (MCM) which is bandwidth-efficient coded modulation. And the performance of three schemes for decoding of the proposed SCMCM is compared and analyzed. As results of simulations, global iterative decoding with inner and outer code should be performed to improve the error performance as the number of iterations is increased. And the scheme which uses both local iterative multistage decoding in MCM and global iterative decoding with inner and outer code, called Scheme 3 in this paper, shows the best error performance among the three schemes considered in this paper. In addition, performance difference between this scheme and the others is increased as the signal to noise ratio (SNR) is increased. Therefore, Scheme 3 is considered to be the proper decoding scheme of SCMCM.

In this paper, the method which improves the performance of a serial decimal multiplier, and the method which operates multiple-digit simultaneously are proposed. The proposed serial decimal multiplier reduces the delay by removing encoding module that generates 2X, 4X multiples, and by generating partial product using shift operation. Also, this multiplier reduces the number of operations using multiple-digit operation. In order to estimate the performance of the proposed multiplier, we synthesized the proposed multiplier with design compiler with SMIC 110nm CMOS library. Synthesis results show that the area of the proposed serial decimal multiplier is increased by 4%, but the delay is reduced by 5% compared to existing serial decimal multiplier. In addition, the trade off between area and latency with respect to the number of concurrent operations in the proposed multiple-digit multiplier is confirmed.

Background: We have hypothesized that, if a low resistant gravity-flow membrane oxygenator is used, then the twin blood sacs of TPLS can be located at downstream of the membrane oxyenator, which may double the pulse rate at a given pump rate and increase the pump output. The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal configuration for the ECLS circuits by using the concept of pulse energy and pump output. Material and Method: Animals were randomly assigned to 2 groups in a total cardiopulmonary bypass model. In the serial group, a conventional membrane oxygenator was located between the twin blood sacs. In the parallel group, the twin blood sacs were placed downstream of the gravity-flow membrane oxygenator. Energy equivalent pressure (EEP) and pump output were collected at pump-setting rates of 30, 40, and 50 BPM. Result: At the given pump-setting rate, the pulse rate was doubled in the parallel group. Percent changes of mean arterial pressure to EEP were $13.0\pm1.7,\; 12.0\pm1.9\;and\;7.6\pm0.9\%$ in the parallel group, and $22.5\pm2.4,\; 23.2\pm1.9,\;and\;21.8\pm1.4\%$ in the serial group at 30, 40, and 50 BPM of pump-setting rates. Pump output was higher in the parallel circuit at 40 and 50 BPM of pump-setting rates $(3.1\pm0.2,\;3.7\pm0.2L/min\;vs.\;2.2\pm0.1\;and\;2.5\pm0.1L/min,\;respectively,\;p=0.01)$. Conclusion: Either parallel or serial circuit configuration of the ECLS generates effective pulsatility. As for the pump out, the parallel circuit configuration provides higher flow than the serial circuit configuration.

In this paper, design of series-fed microstrip antennas with sum and difference patterns is presented for millimeter-wave applications. The antenna was designed to exhibit high-gain and low side-lobe level(SLL) below -20 dB. A conventional transmission-line model, Taylor and Bayliss distributions were employed to determine current distribution for sum and difference patterns. Moreover, connecting lines between microstrip patches were tuned to achieve an optimized design. The measurement was also performed to validate the designed antennas.

An optical parallel modified signed-digit(MSD) number adder system is proposed by using triple rail-coding input patterns and serial arrangement method of symbolic substitution. By combing overlapped arithmetic results. which are produced by encoding MSD input as triple rail-coding patterns. into the same patterns, symbolic substitution rules are reduced and also by using serialized and space-shifted input patterns in optical experiments, the optical adder without space-shifting operation, NOR operation and threshold operation is implemented.

In this paper, a multiagent fault-tolerant supervisory control methodology is proposed for serial production systems under partial observation. To this end, the idea of multiagent control is incorporated with the fault-tolerant supervisory control of discrete event systems. Especially, the concept of mutual fault-tolerance between cascaded processes is established and the unobservable fault identification utilizing the difference information of the controlled results is investigated. Then the synthesis of agent supervisors is formulated based on the proposed concept. A case study of the fault-propagation control of polypropylene prepolymerization and polymerization processes is provided to illustrate the proposed control policy.
