The Taguchi parameter design in industry is an approach to reducing performance variation of quality characteristic in products and processes. In the Taguchi parameter design, the product array approach using orthogonal arrays is mainly used. It often requires an excessive number of experiments. An alternative approach, which is called the combined array approach, was studied. In these studies, only single response was considered. In this paper we propose how to simultaneously optimize multiresponse for the robust design using the combined array approach.

Robust design is an approach to reducing performance variation of response values in products and processes. In the Taguchl parameter design, the product-array approach using orthogonal arrays is mainly used. However, it often requires an excessive number of experiments. An alternative approach, which is called the combined-array approach, was suggested by Welch et. al. (1990) and studied by others. In these studies, only single response variable was considered. We propose how to simultaneously optimize multiple responses when there are correlations among responses, and when we use the combined-array approach to assign control and noise factors. An example is illustrated to show the difference between the Taguchi's product-array approach and the combined-array approach.

During daylight, the solar array of low earth orbit satellites harvests electrical power to operate satellites. The power conversion of the solar array is carried out by control of the operation point using the solar array regulator when the solar array faces the sunlight. Thus, the design of the solar array should comply with not only the power requirement of satellite system but also the input voltage requirement of the solar array regulator. In this paper, the design requirements of the solar array for low earth orbit satellites are defined, and the means of satisfying these requirements are described. In addition, the architecture of a multi-distributed interface is suggested to maximize the power harvested from a solar array having high temperature deviation between each panel. The power analysis in this paper shows the optimal number of multi-distributed interfaces with a converter.

Recently, a number of large-scale photovoltaic(PV) power generation system has been installed all over the world. Thus, in order to improve the system efficiency, the optimal design of the large-scale PV systems has become an important issue. DC cable loss of PV array is one of the design factors related to the system efficiency. This paper introduces the array design method of a 500kW Photovoltaic power plant. Three types of the PV array are suggested. Also, string cables, sub-array cables and array cables are designed within 1% of voltage drop in the line, and the DC cable losses are analyzed. The results of this paper show that the DC cable loss of large-scale PV array can be reduced by adopting a proper sub-array design method.

컨포멀 배열에 적용할 수 있는 곡선 배열안테나용 Rotman 렌즈의 설계 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서는 곡선 배열안테나와 연동하여 Rotman 렌즈의 평행판 영역에 존재하는 배열 포트의 위치와, 배열 포트와 배열안테나 소자를 연결하는 전송선의 길이를 구하는 설계식을 유도하고, 이 설계식을 바탕으로 빔 곡선 최적화 절차와 재초점 절차를 통하여 위상 오차를 최소화하고 있다. 제안된 설계식과 설계 절차에 의해 설계된 Rotman 렌즈는 정확히 3초점을 보유한 채 직선 배열안테나뿐만 아니라, 원곡선, 포물선, V자형 곡선 등의 오목하거나 볼록한 배열안테나를 급전할 수 있으며, 최소의 위상 오차를 나타내고 있다.

A simplified view of array design and application process was introduced. Array design is critical to achieve a successful phased array measurements. A planar microphone array is designed to produce optimum performance and also to fit economic requirement in integrating data acquisition system. Certain performance characteristics are of primary concern when designing arrays. These characteristics include array resolution, spatial aliasing and array sidelobe suppression. Every array has its directional pattern that shows such characteristics. Assuming that a monopole source is located in center, beam-patterns have been simulated varying measurement conditions such as number of sensors. array aperture size, distance between array and source, frequency of interest and so on. Sensor correction was conducted on very channel using magnitudes and phased of FRF with respect to a reference microphone channel. Then with a spiral type array, measurements have been made with two point sources of same frequency in order to investigate array resolving abilities. It is observed that higher frequency source achieves better resolution than lower one does.

We design a circular microstrip array antenna using the admittance of circular resonator. We can design the array antenna, considering equivalent radius of circular microstdrip consistant with conductances which are obtained from excitation coefficeients of the array elements. The antenna with 10 array elements are made on teflon substrate from Tshebyscheff method. It's perfermence are the gain 8.9dB, half power beam width 11.3dge, max, side lobe level -19dB, and they are almost in agreement with the theoretical results.

This paper describes a design for microstrip EMC cross dipole array antenna with circular polarization. To realize the wide bandwidth and circular polarization, the electromagnetic-coupled cross dipole is used. To obtain the uniform aperture illumination, offset technique for array is adopted. In 20-element array design, the calculated axial ratio and gain are about 0.1 dB and 9.9 dBi at 12GHz, respectively. The frequency characteristics of a fabricated 20-element array antenna are measured. The calculated results agree well with the measured ones.

In this paper, a beam design method is presented for the planar array with unequal transducer sensitivities. Basically the proposed method consists of two steps. At first, the optimum weightings are designed with the assumption that all array elements have an uniform sensitivity. Next, the compesnated weightings for the unequal transducer sensitivities can reversely be determined from an inverse problem utilizing the design beam pattern evaluated by the predetermined optimal weightings. A numerical example is inculded to illustrate the proposed method.

In this paper, we design an optimal planar array geometry for maximum side-lobe reduction. The concept of thinned array is applied to obtain an optimal two dimensional(2-D) planar array structure. First, a 2-D rectangular array with uniform spacing is used as an initial planar array structure. Next, we modify the initial planar array geometry with the aid of thinned array theory in order to reduce the maximum side-lobe level. This is implemented by a genetic algorithm under some constraint, minimizing the maximum side-lobe level of the 2-D planar array. It is shown that the optimized planar array structure can achieve low side-lobe level without optimizing the excitations of the array antennas.
