In the last decade, the 2.4 GHz band of IEEE 802.11 WLANs has become heavily congested due to the explosive increase in demand of Wi-Fi connectivity. With the current deployment of enterprise WLANs, channel switching mechanism continues to exhibit inefficiencies because it cannot adapt to real-time channel condition and the inability to support seamless channel switching. Software Defined Networking (SDN) as an emerging architecture is promising to introduce flexibility and programmability for wireless network management. Leveraging SDN to existing enterprise WLANs, channel switching method can be improved significantly. This paper presents a software-defined enterprise WLAN framework with a load aware automatic channel switching solution, which utilizes AP load and channel interference factor (CIF) to provide seamless channel switching. Two automatic channel switching algorithms named Single Switch (SS) and Double Switch (DS) are proposed to improve the overall user experience and the experience of users with highest traffic load respectively. Experiment results demonstrate that our solution can efficiently improve user experience in terms of jitter, transmission delay and network throughout when compared to the conventional channel switching mechanism.

There are two types of protection switching : a) automatic switching and b) forced switching. The switching mechanism is generally realised by OAM functions, therefore, the required OAM information field should be reserved in the PLOAM cells. This paper proposes an unidirectional and a bidirectional protection switching method and potential advantages. The unidirectional protection switching method can be faster than the bidirectional method because the unidirectional method does not require an APS protocol for protection switching. The bidirectional protection switching method uses APS K1 byte and K2 byte, which is included in octets of a PST message through downstream or upstream PLOAM cells, for protection switching. As making comparisons between the unidirectional and the bidirectional protection. switching method, this paper proposes an effective constructing method for ATM-PON network.

On AC railway systems, the neutral sections are installed in front of substations and sectioning posts in order to avoid crash between power that have differing phases. In case railway vehicles pass through these neutral sections, it is necessary for them to switch to coasting driving by notch-off. This may reduce speed of the vehicles, resulting lowered train operation efficiency. The usage of automatic power switching systems makes it possible to pass neutral sections at notch-on, enhancing operation efficiency so that it is appropriate for high-speed railway applications. This paper introduces a simulator that assesses efficiency of automatic power switching systems in neutral sections. The is composed of a power supply system, electric railway vehicles, thyristor switches, and traction motors.

In this work, a transmitter/receiver front-end module (T/R FEM) with an automatic Tx/Rx switching scheme for a 2.4 GHz microwave power transfer is developed for a retro-reflective beamforming scheme. Recently, research on wireless power transfer techniques has moved to wireless charging systems for mobile devices. Retro-reflective beamforming is a good candidate for tracking the spatial position of a mobile device to be charged. In Tx mode, the T/R FEM generates a minimum of 1 W. It also comprises an amplitude and phase monitoring port for transmitting RF power. In Rx mode, it passes an Rx pilot signal from a mobile device to a digital baseband subsystem to recognize the position of the mobile device. The insertion loss of the Rx signal path is 4.5 dB. The Tx and Rx modes are automatically switched by detecting the Tx input power. This T/R FEM is a design example of T/R FEMs for wireless charging systems based on a retro-reflective beamforming scheme.

본 논문은 IEEE 802.11b-무선 LAM 환경에서 ad-hoc 방식과 infrastructure 방식 사이의 자동 모드 전환 기술을 제안하였다. 또한 관련된 기술을 Linux 환경에 맞추어 설계 및 구현을 하였다. 제안된 메커니즘은 AP (Access Point) 서비스 영역 외곽에 switching area를 정의하고 해당 영역에 머무르는 노드는 AP와 음영지역에 있는 ad-hoc 노드를 연결 가능하게 해준다. 본 기술을 활용하여 기존 IEEE 802.11b 환경에서는 서비스가 불가능한 음영지역에 있는 노드에게도 인터넷 서비스를 제공할 수 있게 한다. 성능 검증은 switching area 감지, 패킷 전달 상황 캡춰, FTP 전송을 통한 처리량 측정으로 이루어졌고 그 결과 제안된 메커니즘기 무선 LAN 서비스를 향상 시킨다는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we proposed the test equipment that can perform separate performance tests to mass-produce the Automatic Test Equipment. Until now, the performance test of the ATE has been performed after it has been assembled perfectly. It is possible to perform the performance test only when the external device manufacturing and setting of measurement resources and the internal wiring work have been completed. So we have been studying test equipment that separately tested the switching devices that played a key role in the performance of the ATE. To build the test equipment, we reviewed the circuit card assemblies that make up the switching devices. We designed a test equipment that satisfies the performance test and apply the completed test equipment to the actual production process to analyze whether it was effective in improving the time and workability of the performance test. The test equipment has the advantage that it can be used universally in the mass production process of ATE with the same type of switching device.

Electrode impedances are measured to quantitatively characterize the electrode-electrolyte or cell-electrode interfaces. In the case of high-density microelectrode arrays(MEAs) that have been developed for brainmachine interface applications, the characterization process becomes a repeating and time-consuming task; a system that can perform the measurement and analysis in an automated fashion with accuracy and speed is required. However, due to the large number of channels, parasitic capacitance and off-capacitance components of the switching system become the major factors that decreased the accuracy for the measurement of high impedance microelectrodes. Here we investigated the implementation of automatic impedance measurement system with analyzing the causes of possible measurement-related problems in multichannel switching configuration. Based on our multi-channel measurement circuit model, we suggest solutions to the problems and introduce a novel impedance measurement scheme using electro-mechanical relays. The implemented measurement system could measure |Z| < 700 $k{\Omega}$ of impedance in - 10% errors, which can be widely applicable to high density neural recording MEAs.

In this paper, we propose the principles and design details of Automatic cable assembly test system and show its utility. Testing the cable assembly is required periodically or non-periodically in the system that the cable assembly performance is quite important like military equipment. There are several weaknesses when humans test the cable assembly manually. It not only takes much time but also could happen human error. To improve these disadvantages, I developed Automatic cable assembly test system. The system can be implemented by building switching control system that connect and disconnect the cable assembly and measuring devices. Through the result of the cable assembly test with this test system, we show this system makes test time short and improves of test reliability as compared with manual test.

A certain degree of energy saving can be possible by controlling the delay time of occupancy sensor. In this paper a control circuit is designed for automatic control of delay time setting appropriate to different situations using a digital counter, two latches and an adder. The delay time is controlled by adjusting the time constant of RC circuit through on-off control of switching devices according to adder output, which determines the base current level of switching devices. And from PSpice simulation it is verified to function properly.
