In competitive electricity markets, the System Operator (SO) coordinates the overall maintenance schedules when the collective maintenance schedule reported to 50 by Gencos not satisfy the specified operating criteria, such as system reliability or supply adequacy. This paper presented a method that divides generator maintenance scheduling of the 50 into a master-problem and a sub-problem. Master-problem is schedule coordination and sub-problem is DC-optimal power flow. If sub-problem is infeasible, we use the algorithm of modifying operating criteria of master-problem. And, the 50 should use the open information only, because the information such as cost function of a generator and bidding Price is highly crucial for the strategies of profit maximization.

A semiconductor switch-based fast hi-polar high voltage pulse generator is proposed in this paper The proposed pulse system is made of a thyristor based-rectifier, DC link capacitor, a push-pull resonant inverter, a high voltage transformer. secondary capacitor, a high voltage IGBT & diode stacks, and a variable capacitor. The proposed system makes hi-polar high voltage sinusoidal waveform using resonance between leakage inductance of the transformer and secondary capacitor and transfers energy to output load at maximum of the secondary capacitor voltage. Compared to previous hi-polar high voltage pulse power supply using nonlinear transmission line, the proposed pulse power system using only semiconductor switches has simple structure and gives high efficiency

Hydrogenated amorphous Si (a-Si:H), low temperature poly Si (LTPS) 등 기존 thin film transistors (TFTs)에 사용되던 채널 물질을 대체할 재료로써 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있는 amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO)는 TFT에 적용하였을 때 뛰어난 전기적 특성과 재연성을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라 넓은 밴드갭을 가져 투명소자로도 응용이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 a-IGZO의 열처리에 따른 소자의 전기적 특성과 조성 분포의 관계를 확인하기 위해 다음과 같이 실험을 진행하였다. Si/SiO2 기판 위에 DC sputter를 이용하여 IGZO를 증착하고 $350^{\circ}C$에서 열처리를 한 후 evaporator로 Al 전극을 형성시켰다. 이 때 전기적 특성의 변화를 비교하기 위해 열처리 한 샘플과 열처리 하지 않은 샘플에 대해 I-V 특성을 측정하였고, 채널 내부의 조성 분포 변화를 transmission electron microscopy (TEM)의 energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS)를 이용하여 관찰하였다. 그 결과 열처리 된 a-IGZO 채널 층의 산소 비율이 감소하였으며 전체적인 조성이 고르게 분포 되었고 전기적 특성은 향상되었다.

본 논문에서는 무선 전력 전송을 위한 10W RF Power Source를 설계 및 제작, 측정 하였다. 제작된 RF Power Source는 9~11MHz의 신호 생성을 위한 DDS와 전력 증폭을 위한 전력 증폭기로 구성되어 있다. 근거리 무선 전력 전송은 전자기 유도 또는 전자기 공진 형태의 무선으로 전력을 전달하게 되므로 전력 증폭기의 부하단의 임피던스가 변하게 되어 전력 증폭기의 특성의 변화가 생기는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 단점을 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 부하단의 임피던스 변화에 둔감하도록 평형(Balanced)구조를 이용하여 전력 증폭기를 설계하였다. 제작된 RF Power Source는 입력 전원 DC 24V, 소모 전류 1.5A, 사용가능 주파수범위는 9~11MHz, 최대 출력 전력 10W의 특성을 보였다.

As the increasing the demand on information service, high-capacity and high-speed telecommunication networks are required. For the networks, very intelligent telecommunication equipments such as DCS(Digital Cross-connect System) will be employed for the fast service on the various types of information including voice, data and image. This paper considers the transmission networks composed of DCSs and optical fibers as nodes and links of the networks, respectively. For the networks, some types of restoration algorithms are compared their characteristics for their potential applications. And a distributed control algorithm is described as an empirical example which is implemented on the BDCS(Broadband Digital Cross-connect System), where the BDCS is a type of DCS developed in Korea. Finally, some remarks on the associated further researches are added.

The Voltage Source Converter (VSC) is replacing the conventional line commutated current source converters in High Voltage DC (HVDC) transmission systems. The control of a two-level voltage source converter and its design dealt with HVDC systems and various factors such as reactive power, power factor, and harmonics distortion are discussed in detail. Simulation results are given for the two-level converter and designed control is used for bidirectional power flow. The harmonics minimization is taken by extending the 6-pulse VSC to multipulse voltage source converters. The control is also tested and simulated for a 12-pulse voltage source converter to minimize the harmonic distortion in AC currents.

Ultra wideband (UWB) technologies have been developed to exploit a new spectrum resource in substances and to realize ultra-high-speed communication, high precision geolocation, and other applications. The energy of UWB signal is extremely spread from near DC to a few GHz. This means that the interference between conventional narrowband systems and UWB systems is inevitable. However, the interference effects had not previously been studied from UWB wireless systems to conventional mobile wireless systems sharing the frequency bands such as WCDMA system. This paper experimentally evaluates the interference from two kinds of UWB sources, namely a direct-sequence spread-spectrum UWB source and an impulse radio UWB source, to a WCDMA digital transmission system. The average frame error rate degradations are presented. From these experimental results, we show that in all practical cases UWB system can coexist with WCDMA terminal without causing any dangerous interference.

In HVDC converters that employ a line-commutated control, reactive power is absorbed by the rectifier and inverter terminals during AC/DC conversion. An AC filter usually consists of filters and large shunt capacitors to supply reactive power to the HVDC station. When STATCOM is used to supply reactive power to the HVDC system with AC filter, the low-order harmonics generated from STATCOM can result in a resonance between the shunt capacitor and AC network. Therefore, a control strategy based on selective harmonic elimination is adopted to minimize the low-order harmonics from STATCOM. The cancellation of harmonic instabilities is verified through simulations in PSCAD/EMTDC.

In competitive electricity markets, the System Operator (SO) coordinates the overall maintenance schedules whenever the collective maintenance schedule reported to SO by Gencos & Transco in the pool does not satisfy the specified operating criteria, such as system reliability or supply adequacy. We propose a two-layer mathematical algorithm amenable to maintenance scheduling problem into master problem and sub-problem. The master problem coordinates the scheduling, and sub-problem, DC optimal power flew, checks the adequacy. The proposed algorithm was demonstrated with a case study.
