Basic design for single-phase active power filter, which aims at railway applications provided with PWM-controlled converters, is comprehensively studided and its performance is presented in this paper, Active power filters are used to compensate railway signaling and public telecommunication interference due to the high-order harmonic currents generated in railway traction locomotives. A type of hybrid digital filter which is composed of low pass filter and high pass filter is proposed so that the desired harmonic reference current with accurate magnitude and phase shift can be extracted from catenary line current. A design criteria to determine input inductor L and output capacitor C is also described, considering voltage, current. PWM pattern, and switching frequency of the main converters, Finally, computer simulation and DSP-based experiments resulted from laboratory test are presented.

The space in today's digital era is developing in a new direction with the changing paradigm, which is different from that in the analog era. The space that appeals to the advanced technology mobilizes all the five senses of the space user with the technical elements of the more variable fields and aesthetic productions, and creates an interactive environment by motivating the user's active participation through the digital media. The environmental device called digital media connects the function pace with living performance. Unlike in the analog space, the different sides of the digital media space create a human consciousness that corresponds to the realistic ambience, further contributing to the lively condition. For the main production technique in the digital medias performance-active space, there are electronic image production, changeable production, impromptu-active production, light and sound production, and total artistic production that lead to the progressive interaction between man and space.

This paper presents the analysis and design of an active electromagnetic interference (EMI) filter (AEF) for the common-mode (CM) noise reduction of switching power converters. The features of the several types of AEFs are discussed and compared in terms of implementation. The feed-forward AEF with a voltage-sensing and voltage-cancellation (VSVC) structure is implemented for an LLC resonant converter to replace a multiple-stage passive EMI filter and thereby reduce CM noise. The characteristics and performance of the VSVC-type AEF are investigated through theoretical and experimental works.

This paper describes the motivation, design and performance of bi-active Load balancer in Linux Virtual Server. The goal of bi-active Load balancer is to provide a framework to build highly scalable, fault-tolerant services using a large cluster of commodity servers. The TCP/IP stack of Linux Kernel is extended to support three IP load balancing techniques, which can make parallel services of different kinds of server clusters to appear as a service on a single IP address. Scalability is achieved by transparently adding or removing a node in the cluster. and high availability is provided by detecting node or daemon failures and reconfiguring the system appropriately. Extensive simulation reveals that the proposed approach improves the reply rate about 20% compared to earlier design.

The emergence of wide channel bandwidth wireless standards requires the use of a highly linear, wideband integrated CMOS baseband chain with moderate power consumption. In this paper, we present the design of highly linear, wideband active RC filters and a digitally programmable variable gain amplifier. To achieve a high unity gain bandwidth product with moderate power consumption, the feed-forward compensation technique is applied for the design of wideband active RC filters. Measured results from a $0.5{\mu}m$ CMOS prototype baseband chain show a cutoff frequency of 10 MHz, a variable gain range of 33 dB, an in-band IIP3 of 13 dBV, and an input referred noise of 114 ${\mu}Vrms$ while dissipating 20 mW from a 3 V supply.

The strong need of verifying theories formulated for semi-active control through applications to real structures is due to the fact that theoretical research on semi-active control systems is not matched by a corresponding satisfactory experimental activity. This paper shows how a smart system including magnetorheological devices as damping elements can be implemented in a large-scale structural model, by describing in detail the kind of electronics (dedicated hardware and software) adopted during the experimental campaign. It also describes the most interesting results in terms of reduction of the seismic response (either experimental or numerical) of the semi-actively controlled structure compared to a passive operating control system, and in terms of the evaluation criteria proposed in the benchmark for seismically excited controlled buildings. The paper also explains how to derive from the classical theory of optimal control the adopted control logic, based on a clear physical approach, and provides an exhaustive picture of the time delays characterizing the control sequence.

For the calculation of internal stability, the hypothesis in conventional design is on the basis of two distinct zones, which are 'active zone' and 'passive zone'. This means that there is an abrupt discontinuous transition from active to passive states across a potential failure line. The existence of a discontinuity of this nature appears physically unreasonable, especially from kinematic considerations. A series of pull-out model tests was undertaken from a wall being rotated about the toe to find the strain istribution mobilized from near the wall face into the deep, stable zone through the centre plane. With this finding of transition zone, the objective of study is aiming at identifying the likely effect of this zone in designing method by comparing with the prevailing design method.

Reliability of onboard power supply systems on rolling stock is a very important issue for the railway operator. While a failure of the HVAC supply results in a loss of comfort for the passengers, a failure of the supply for air compressors or for the traction cooling systems results in towing the train. This is, looking at the required availability of a train, not acceptable. An active redundancy concept for the onboard power supply maximizes the availability of the system. This paper describes such a system under the aspect of $\cdot$ Weight reduction $\cdot$ Continuous operation when changing from normal to redundant operation $\cdot$ Flexibility in train design.

In this paper, novel three-port active power decoupling (APD) method for applying 250[W] micro-inverter. This type using third port for active power decoupling stores the surplus energy and supplies sufficient energy to grid. Conventional decoupling circuit is applied in single phase grid connected micro-inverter especially single-stage configuration like flyback-type DC-AC inverter. In this passive power decoupling method, electrolytic capacitor with large capacitance is needed for decoupling from constant DC power and instantaneous AC power. However the decoupling capacitor is replaced with film capacitor by using APD, thus the overall system can achieve smaller size and long lifespan. Proposed three-port flyback inverter is verified by design and simulation.

This paper introduces a design and a simulation of a hybrid active power filter (HAPF) for harmonics reduction given an ideal supply source. The synchronous reference frame method has been used here to identify the reference currents. The proposed HAPF uses a new artificial- intelligence technique called Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) for tuning the parameters of a proportional and integral controller called PI-PSO. The PI-PSO controller is used to archive optimality for the DC-link voltage of the HAPF-inverter. The hysteresis non-linear current control method is used in this approach to compare the extracted reference and the actual currents in order to generate the pulse gate required for the HAPF. Results obtained by simulations with Matlab/Simuling show that the proposed approach is very flexible and effective for eliminating harmonic currents generated by the non-linear load with the HAPF based PSO tuning.
