In this paper, an arc current controller was designed for the interruption of arc fault currents occurred in a low voltage network. Arc in an electrical network represents the characteristics of low current, high impedance, and high frequency. Conventional controllers do not have arc current interrupt functions. Thus, an arc current controller was designed for the interruption of arc fault currents.

This letter presents the design and measured performance of bandpass filters based on a stacked-SIR (stepped impedance resonators) configuration with DGS (Defected Ground Structure). An unit DGS configuration is designed and analyzed to show the phase characteristic of proposed slow-wave structure. The SIR filter with DGS has been yielded better stop band and sharper skirt behavior than conventional bandpass filter.

Power system fault analysis is commonly based on well-known symmetrical component method, which describes power system elements by positive, negative and zero sequence impedance. In case of balanced fault, such as three phase short circuit, transmission line can be represented by positive sequence impedance only. The majority of fault in transmission lines, however, is unbalanced fault, such as line-to-ground faults, so that both positive and zero sequence impedance is required for fault analysis. When unbalanced fault occurs, zero sequence current flows through earth and skywires in overhead transmission systems and through cable sheaths and earth in cable transmission systems. Since zero sequence current distribution between cable sheath and earth is dependent on both sheath bondings and grounding configurations, care must be taken to calculate zero sequence impedance of underground cable transmission lines. In this paper, conventional and EMTP-based sequence impedance calculation methods were described and applied to 345kV cable transmission systems (4 circuit, OF 2000mm2). Calculation results showed that detailed circuit analysis is desirable to avoid possible errors of sequence impedance calculation resulted from various configuration of cable sheath bonding and grounding in underground cable transmission systems.

접지시스템은 전기설비의 기준 전위점을 확보할 뿐만 아니라 대지에 낮은 저항으로 고장전류나 과도전류를 흐르게 한다. 주파수에 대한 함수로 접지 임피던스는 고장이나 과도전류가 넓은 범위의 주파수 성분을 포함하기 때문에 접지성능을 평가하는데 필요하다. 동봉은 배전계통에서 가장 많이 쓰이는 접지전극이다. 본 논문에서는 동봉의 접지 임피던스를 주파수 60[Hz] 에서 100[kHz] 범위까지 측정하여 등가 접지임피던스 모델을 구하였다. 뇌격서지가 유입되었을 때 EDSA 프로그램으로 과도접지임피던스의 수치와 파형을 시뮬레이션 하였다.

본 논문에서, 기존의 λ/4 전원 전송선로의 접지면에 아령 모양의 DGS(Defected Ground Structure)를 추가한 새로운 형태의 λ/4 전원 전송선로를 제안하였다. DGS A/4 전원 전송선로는 높은 특성 임피던스 값을 유지하면서, 기존의 전원 선로보다 폭은 더 넓어지고 길이는 더 짧아졌다. 제안된 전원 선로가 신호 전송선로에 부착되면, 2차 고조파 성분뿐만 아니라 3차 고조파 성분 역시 감쇄시킬 수 있다. 증폭기에서 고조파 감쇄 특성을 갖는다면, 효율과 선형성이 개선되어진다. 제안된 전원 선로는 IMT-2000 기지국 송신 대역 전력 증폭기에 적용하였다. 본 논문에서는 제안된 새로운 DGS 구조 λ/4 전원 선로를 이용한 전력 증폭기의 검증을 위해, DGS 시뮬레이션과 실험 결과들을 제시하였다. 실험 결과, 기존의 구조에 비해 3차 고조파 성분은 26.5 dB 감쇄되었고, 효율은 약 9.1% 정도 향상되었으며, 3차 혼변조 왜곡 특성은 4.5 dB 개선되었다.

This paper presents design and specific absorption rate analysis of a 2.4 GHz wearable patch antenna on a conventional and electromagnetic bandgap (EBG) ground planes, under normal and bent conditions. Wearable materials are used in the design of the antenna and EBG surfaces. A woven fabric (Zelt) is used as a conductive material and a 3 mm thicker Wash Cotton is used as a substrate. The dielectric constant and tangent loss of the substrate are 1.51 and 0.02 respectively. The volume of the proposed antenna is $113{\times}96.4{\times}3mm^3$. The metamaterial surface is used as a high impedance surface which shields the body from the hazards of electromagnetic radiations to reduce the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). For on-body analysis a three layer model (containing skin, fats and muscles) of human arm is used. Antenna employing the EBG ground plane gives safe value of SAR (i.e. 1.77W/kg<2W/kg), when worn on human arm. This value is obtained using the safe limit of 2 W/kg, averaged over 10g of tissue, specified by the International Commission of Non Ionization Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). The SAR is reduced by 83.82 % as compare to the conventional antenna (8.16 W/kg>2W/kg). The efficiency of the EBG based antenna is improved from 52 to 74 %, relative to the conventional counterpart. The proposed antenna can be used in wearable electronics and smart clothing.

When faults occur in transmission lines, the classification of faults is very important. If the fault is HIF(High Impedance Fault), it cannot be detected or removed by conventional overcurrent relays (OCRs), and results in fire hazards and causes damages in electrical equipment or personal threat. The fast discrimination of fault needs to effective protection and treatment and is important problem for power system protection. This paper proposes the fault detection and discrimination algorithm for LIFs(Low Impedance Faults) and HIFs(High Impedance Faults). This algorithm uses artificial neural networks and variation of 3-phase maximum currents per period while faults. A double lines-to-ground and line-to-line faults can be detected using Neural Network. Also, the other faults can be detected using the value of variation of maximum current. Test results show that the proposed algorithms discriminate LIFs and HIFs accurately within a half cycle.

We designed and fabricated symmetrical partially shorted MSAs for 850 MHz band on various Copper-clad Laminates substrates, where the width of the radiation patch is identical with that of the ground plane and the radiation patch is partially shorted to the ground plane. The resonant frequency, return loss and input impedance due to the permittivity(2.5, 3.5, 10.0) and thickness(0.76~1.57 mm, 6 types) were measured by reducing the PSW (Partially Shorted Width) to 0 mm. As a result, good characterized antennas with average 11% reduced resonant length and return loss 7.288~29.445 dB were obtained when the total PSW was in the range of 70% of radiated patch width, compared to the conventional λ/4 MSA.

본 논문에서는 결함 기저면 구조(DGS) 인버터를 이용하여 평행 결합 선로 대역 통과 필터를 설계하는 새로운 방법을 제안하였다. 이 방법은 전송선 인버터 구조의 필터 설계 시 높은 임피던스로 발생하는 선로 폭 제한 문제를 쉽게 해결할 수 있다. 제안한 방법과 기존 방법에 근거하여 13.3 %의 대역폭율을 갖는 대역 통과 필터가 설계 및 제작되었다. 두 필터의 측정 곁과는 비교적 잘 일치한다. 반면에 기존 필터에 비해 제안 필터 길이는 약 15 mm 축소되었고, 인버터 선로 폭은 2배 이상 확장되었다.
