In order to substitute incandescent lamps, a power supply device for 7W class LED lamps which are environmentally friendly and energy saving is designed LED lamps consist of a multitude of chip LED connected in parallel and series. 11ms it is necessary to supply LED lamps with DC voltage and current. However, when LED lamps are in use, they are connected directly to AC 220V. This is why we need to have AC/DC, DC/DC power converters including a control system of voltage and current. For this, a transformerless and simple LED lamp driver is designed 조ich can control the current and output voltage for LED string of LED lamp.

A new control algorithm of soft starter is proposed for the reduction of the inrush current during the grid connection of the induction-type wind power generator. Currently, the fixed speed wind turbine using induction generator is the most popular wind generation system in Korea. It is shown that the amount of inrush current mainly depends on the control algorithm of the soft starter, a thyristor-based grid connection device. For the simulation study, a 600kw wind turbine simulation model is developed and the transient waveforms are investigated with conventional md proposed methods. Also experimental results using 3.7kW experimental set-up show that the peak value of inrush current is reduced about 20$\%$ using proposed algorithm.

In this paper, a unified control strategy using the current space vector modulation (CSVM) technique is proposed and applied to a bidirectional three-phase DC/AC converter. The operation of the converter changes with the direction of the power flow. In the charging mode, it works as a buck type rectifier; and during the discharging mode, it operates as a boost type inverter, which makes it suitable as an interface between high voltage AC grids and low voltage energy storage devices. This topology has the following advantages: high conversion efficiency, high power factor at the grid side, tight control of the charging current and fast transition between the charging and discharging modes. The operating principle of the mode analysis, the gate signal generation, the general control strategy and the transition from a constant current (CC) to a constant voltage (CV) in the charging mode are discussed. The proposed control strategy has been validated by simulations and experimental results obtained with a 1kW laboratory prototype using supercapacitors as an energy storage device.

The adoption of cladding panels as dissipation device is a sort of passive control "ante litteram" for residential and commercial buildings. This paper gives details on the current technology outlining the difference between buffer panels and cladding panels. The discussion of robustness and resilience of the resulting system is afforded. It is shown that the strength of such solution, originally related to economy and light weight, is mainly associated with the respect of the main robustness requisites, as well as the short time it requires for removal and replacement (resilience).

This paper is given a full detail of mathematical analyses of input current for novel active type power factor correction(PFC) AC-DC converter of step up-down added electric isolation. These are compared with harmonics components of input current for a conventional PFC converter of electric isolation type. The proposed PFC converter is constructed in using a new loss-less snubber circuit to achieve a soft switching of control device. Also the proposed converter for discontinuous conduction mode(DCM) eliminates the complicated circuit control requirement and reduces the size of components. The input current waveform in the proposed converter is got to be a sinusoidal form of discontinuous pulse in proportion to magnitude of ac input voltage under the constant duty cycle switching. Therefore, input power factor is nearly unity and the control method is simple. Particularly, the stored energy of loss-less snubber capacitor is recovered with input side and increases input current from resonant operation. The result is that input power factor of the proposed converter is higher than that of a conventional PFC converter. Some simulative results on computer and experimental results are included to confirm the validity of the analytical results.

P2P systems have gained a lot of research interests and popularity over the years and have the capability to unleash and distribute awesome amounts of computing power, storage and bandwidths currently languishing - often underutilized - within corporate enterprises and every Internet connected home in the world. Since there is no central control over resources or devices and no before hand information about the resources or devices, device discovery remains a substantial problem in P2P environment. In this paper, we cover some of the current solutions to this problem and then propose our feed forward neural network (FFNN) based solution for device discovery in mobile P2P environment. We implements feed forward neural network (FFNN) trained with back propagation (BP) algorithm for device discovery and show, how large computation task can be distributed among such devices using agent technology. It also shows the possibility to use our architecture in home networking where devices have less storage capacity.

In order to overcome small current drivability of a tunneling field-effect transistor (TFET), a TFET using Schottky barrier (SBTFET) is proposed. The proposed device has a metal source region unlike the conventional TFET. In addition, dopant segregation technology between the source and channel region is applied to reduce tunneling resistance. For TFET fabrication, spacer technique is adopted to enable self-aligned process because the SBTFET consists of source and drain with different types. Also the control device which has a doped source region is made to compare the electrical characteristics with those of the SBTFET. From the measured results, the SBTFET shows better on/off switching property than the control device. The observed drive current is larger than those of the previously reported TFET. Also, short-channel effects (SCEs) are investigated through the comparison of electrical characteristics between the long- and short-channel SBTFET.

Recently. the spark and the overheat due to in the conductor breaks have been the major causes of electrical fire in low voltage wiring. Also, because in these cases the current is a surge one, the losses and faults of a communication, a home appliances, a computer and a measuring instrument may occur. Especially, in such cases, we are very difficult to detect the condition of the conductor breaks. In this paper, we have developed an auxiliary control device, the electrical fire prevention control device (EFPCD), of an earth leakage breaker (ELB). And we can prevent the electrical fire caused by the spark and the overheat occurring in the conductor breaks with the EFPCD.

The core technology of a starting device in the packaged power system is the pinion gear shifting device and to limit the initial starting voltage. Although the conventional products have been used the starting controller using mechanical contactor, these have a big problem such as the uncertainty for the start of starting motor after a pinion gear is completely shifted or the arc demage due to high current. In this study, in order to solve these problems, we designed and fabricated a new product to achieve the safety and reliability as follows: the pinion gear-shifting control circuits to eliminate the uncertainty of the start, the starting control system using semiconductor device to prevent the arc demage of contactor caused by high current, a start safety devices for soft starting of series motor. In addition, we obtained the electrical safety by separating the pinion gear control circuit and the source circuit of motor.
